Keplerth: Another World vs Space Engineers
Keplerth: Another World
Keplerth: Another World is a sandbox-survival game where you'll need to go out into the world to gather the resources you need and turn them into useful items via various the workbench and other crafting stations. If you have played Rimworld, you may quickly notice the similarities in terms of the graphics and the "feel" between those two games. However, the gameplay is slightly different since it resembles the game Don't Starve rather than Rimworld in which you control a main character and all you have to do is to make sure that you survive while exploring the vast world around you. There is no colony management involved!Being a survival game, you'll be expected to keep yourself nourished. Your hunger level drops pretty quickly in this game and if you're up for a quick advice - it's best to get a stove up and running asap, in addition to collecting every morsel of food that you come across. At the stove, you can craft a Big Feast which will fill up 25% of your satiety meter. Keep crafting these stuff and you'll never die of hunger even during your many expeditions away from your base.
The base-building aspect here is fairly simple and frankly, there aren't as many decor, unlike in games like Minecraft, that you can furnish your place with. Combat is very hack-and-slash too - just make sure you are facing the enemy when you hack at them. You can also opt for a bow if you like.
In short, Keplerth is truly an engrossing sandbox-survival game that successfully merged the artistic style of Rimworld with the somewhat intense (and hardcore, depending on the difficulty level you chose) gameplay of Don't Starve. There are some issues with the game still, such as having enemies randomly spawning within your base if that corner happened to be unlit, but overall, the game is definitely worth the cost and the time you'll spend playing it.
Space Engineers
Space Engineers is an absolutely brilliant and incredibly in-depth sandbox game where you can build your space colony from the ground up, explore space and planets via open-world creative mode, survival mode or scenario-based campaigns, or enjoy some simple fun with other players its other multiplayer-oriented game modes like its racing game mode or its MMO shooter “capture the flag”-style mode.To sum it up, Space Engineers is truly a masterpiece of a very ambitious game especially considering its humble indie roots. The game seems to be a fun hybrid of Everspace, Minecraft, and Satisfactory, all of which are games that I’ve greatly enjoyed. However, I’d like to reiterate that playing the game in multiplayer mode with your friends is the way to go since single-player mode can feel rather boring.
All in all, this is the space game that players have always wanted… no, hungered for. If you liked what you’ve read, be sure to check the game out on Steam and maybe give the game a shot!
