Into the Dead vs They Are Billions
Into the Dead
Into the Dead is a fairly simply first-person shooter game that has some of the most intense zombie-themed post-apocalyptic setting that I have ever experienced. To stay alive, you not only need to have great aim; you'll also know when to run. Like most FPS games, the game does have a nice arsenal of weapons for you to use, but so far, this aspect seems a bit lacking since 1. there isn't a lot of variety unless you pay real money and 2. there is no way for you to upgrade your existing weapons. There are also tons of thrilling missions and minigames to complete as well as new game modes and features to enjoy.Although Into the Dead is not perfect, the game does have that special thrill of horror as you do your best to fend off the incoming hordes of zombies. It is definitely the perfect game to play if you're up for a heart-pounding zombie-killing, post-apocalyptic adventure.
They Are Billions
They Are Billions is a hardcore, steampunk-themed empire-building/ real-time strategy game that is set in a dark and gloomy post-apocalyptic world (Not Earth). The game plays out like an actual RTS whereby you need to not only develop your castle into a sprawling empire, but also manage your empire's resources and defenses, and making sure that none of the billions of zombies out there are able to infiltrate your defenses... or things can easily escalate from having a single zombie to deal with to an entire horde.This indie game made waves in the gaming industry mainly because of its unique zombie system. As you all "The Walking Dead" fans should know, whenever a zombie attacks and kills a human, the plague that's around will reanimate the fallen corpse and turn it into a new zombie. This system is implemented in this game, making even a single zombie that had made it past your defenses a very costly mistake. That's not taking into account the periodic zombie invasions which usually consist of a massive swarm of zombies, some of which are tougher to kill than most, that sub-par defenses won't be able to handle.
They Are Billions is definitely not the sort of strategy game to play if you simply don't have the time or the patience to figure out the best strategy to protect your population from the many infected out there. However, if you're the sort who is always up for a challenge, you might find this game a rare delicious treat!
