Island Experiment vs Stonehearth
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.
Stonehearth
Stonehearth is the game you'll want to play if you enjoy playing Minecraft because you can build your very own city. Although the game is basically a sandbox game like Minecraft, it has a building aspect that's much more similar to Craft the World... except that in Stonehearth, everything's in glorious 3D. In this game, you play as the leader of a small handful of adorable-looking pioneers who are looking for a new place to settle down. There isn't a lot of digging involved in Stonehearth though you still need to get your pioneers to collect resources from the environment or to plant and harvest their own.Like in Craft the World, you'll need to provide shelter for your people and equip them with the necessary equipment so they can fend off attacks during the night. However, when it comes to crafting, Stonehearth has a much more diverse and in-depth crafting system. The building system in this game is also pretty unique though it can be rather restrictive when compared to Minecraft since the most "building" you'll be doing is mainly houses for your villagers. Of course, let's not forget about the game's much better-looking graphics!
In some way, Stonehearth is more of a survival/town-building game than a pure sandbox game like Minecraft. However, it is perfect for players who enjoy having an entire town of minions to order around, and the satisfaction of leading and developing a tribe. For a price tag of $24.99 (on Steam), Stonehearth can be a bit on the costly side, but if this is the sort of game you're into, the game will always be worth the price. You can show your support to the indie developers behind this game as well... so there's that!
