Island Experiment vs Starbound
Island Experiment
Island Experiment is a fun and addictive simulation game whereby you’ll get to join your fellow young adventurers on a treasure hunt to a remote and mysterious island. In this game, you’ll need to ensure the survival of your people on the island, as well as having sufficient resources, food, and tools to explore and map out the island. Experience various strange events and try to solve problems that arise in your adventures including how to cross a ravine. You can go spelunking in a deep cave for rare resources like iron and other valuable artifacts that you can then sell for cold hard cash too! If you’ve enjoyed games like Coral Isle, you’ll surely enjoy Island Experiment.Starbound
Starbound is amazingly fun 2D sandbox/exploration game that will put you in the shoes of a spacefarer and a captain of your very own spacecraft. As you travel through space, you will need to stop by planets to collect resources and perhaps even colonize them so you can also gather up a crew to man your ship. There are up to 7 races to play as, a story campaign where you are tasked to save the universe, and 3 different game modes ranging from Casual to Hardcore to either provide you with a fun relaxing experience or to put your survival skills to the test. You can even play the game cooperatively when you want. For modders, you can add in new races, biomes, dungeons, quests and anything else you'd like as well.Starbound can be turned into a pretty much an endless game due to its procedurally generated universe, where you can simply fly around in your spaceship looking for your next big adventure. Thus, you can definitely expect hours of gameplay at the very least for your first playthrough, making this game very well worth its price.
