How to Survive: Storm Warning Edition vs Rust
How to Survive: Storm Warning Edition
How to Survive: Storm Warning Edition is a zombie-survival RPG that is quite the underappreciated gem among other games of the same genre. Featuring a rare (at least within the genre) isometric-like view of the world much like in Diablo, this game will have you rummaging through anything that may hide vital resources you'll need, ranging from food and water to a variety of crafting materials, in order to survive. You'll need to build a shelter for yourself as well just to have a safe and protected space free of both zombies and other natural threats.However, unlike most survival games, How to Survive features a hack-and-slash, twin-stick shooter-styled gameplay, which frankly explains why they opted for an isometric view rather than the more immersive first- or third-person perspective. The game even contains a skill tree for you to invest points in, and insanely in-depth crafting system, and an overall most satisfying game experience.
If you love the graphical and gameplay style of Last Day on Earth: Survival and yet are looking for a PC game equivalent that doesn't have any IAPs, How to Survive is definitely a game you'll want to check out. It is miles better than what any free-to-play survival game can be!
Rust
Rust is hardcore survival game where the only aim for every player in the game is to survive. Being a survival game, your character will have needs that you'll need to fulfill or risk getting ill or worse... dying from it. There are tons of recipes for you to craft a wide variety of items from as long as you've got the resources you need, and you can also hunt and built a shelter.As fun as this game may sound, the community in this game can be a bit toxic. Most players have a kill-on-sight policy (even if you're naked and literally have nothing with you) and this means playing alone can be very frustrating. If you're planning to play this game, you might want to get a larger group of friends - maybe somewhere around 5 or more players - or you'll quickly realize you want your money back now.
