Jamestown: Legend Of The Lost Colony vs Melting World Online
Jamestown: Legend Of The Lost Colony
Jamestown: Legend Of The Lost Colony is a neo-classical, steampunk-themed top-down shooter that's set on 17th-century British Colonial Mars. The gameplay is as intense as any other bulletstorm-styled arcade games but the enjoyment is definitely ramped up with its 4-player co-op mode. Unlike other games where players in a team have a shared health pool, this game not only separates each player's health bars but also allow surviving players to resurrect dead players on the same team. So, this game gives meaning to sacrifices that other team members can make just so at least one member of the team can survive the round.Of course, aside from the unique gameplay, Jamestown: Legend Of The Lost Colony also has tons of fun levels, and even a "Gauntlet" mode which features its 1996 graphics. There are many achievements for you to collect and over 20 challenging bonus levels that will truly put your skills to the test.
Melting World Online
Melting World Online is a strategy RPG set in what seems to be an alien world. Featuring a unique old school-look, this game more than makes up for its dated graphics with an in-depth and surprisingly strategic gameplay. Aside from the timed turn-based combat, which is modelled after Fallout games' VATS system and is designed to keep you on your toes, you'll also get to assemble your own team of mechs (along with their mech pilots) to bring into the battlefield.The most intriguing part of the gameplay, however, is how you can customize your mech. Instead of giving you fixed slots to put your weapons and armor in, you get a grided box for each part of your mech, namely the cockpit, left and right arms, the body and left and right legs, where you can attempt to squeeze in as many weapons and armor as you can. After all, the more weapons you have means the more attacking options you'll have, while having more armor means your mech can take a lot more punishment from the enemy before going down.
Melting World Online may not win any prizes when it comes to its nostalgic 90s visuals, but its gameplay is definitely worth a look, especially if you're a huge fan of strategy games.
