Jurassic Survival vs RimWorld
Jurassic Survival
Jurassic Survival is a free-to-play prehistoric-themed survival MMO game where you can not only hunt dinosaurs, from the most ferocious meat-eaters to the gargantuan plant-eaters, but also other players who encroached on your land. The game is basically a copy-and-paste version of the popular zombie survival game, Last Day on Earth - Survival. This means that you'll get to design and build your own base, set up defenses, and head out to scour the wilderness for resources to hoard as well as to use for crafting. There are also clans that you can join just so you can have enough firepower to take down tougher dinosaurs.Interestingly though, the game is not set in prehistoris times despite having a prehistoric/ dinosaur theme. In this game, there are plenty of weapons, including more modern ones like guns, as well as armor that you'll need to use on your dino hunts just so you can survive the encounter. Similar to the many different types of zombies in Last Day on Earth, there are plenty of dinosaur types in this game too. Knowing their behavior will help tremendously when you want to take them on.
However, the game has its fair share of inconveniences, which avid fans of Last Day on Earth would be able to emphatize with, such as the lack of energy or the long duration needed to travel from one place to another without speeding it up with energy. That said, Jurassic Survival is perhaps the only and best alternative to the game, Last Day on Earth, currently available on Google Play.
RimWorld
RimWorld is a sci-fi-themed colony simulation game where you need to build a livable and possibly self-sustaining base by making full use of all the skills your survivors have. Your survivors have their own sets of personalities as well and hence, they will react to the events that are happening around them, form relationships with other survivors, and even refuse to do work that they don't want to do. It's also nice to note that the game emphasizes on parts of the body so if your survivor lost a leg in an accident, he or she can still hobble around on the other provided that some form of replacement, like a peg leg, is given.Although most worlds have multiple biomes, the world you play in is randomly generated, so basically, you will never get the same world twice. The most interesting part about this game though is its AI storyteller. It is the "god of luck" who will throw challenges at you, be it disasterous weather or a pirate raid. There are a few types you can choose from as well, ranging from Randy Random who likes to randomly give you events to deal with to Phoebe Chillax who favors more neutral or positive events and takes it easy with the more negative ones.
RimWorld is perhaps the ultimate story-driven sandbox game that not only lets you build your own colonies and manage them; you'll also get to experience a story that is written as you play along. Sounds just like a game you'd like to play? Well, be sure to check this game out!
