Lara Croft: Relic Run vs Risk of Rain
Lara Croft: Relic Run
Lara Croft: Relic Run is a thrilling endless runner game where you get to once again join adventurer extraordinaire, Lara Croft, as she dashes through various ancient ruins in search of valuable artifacts to recover. With simply a swipe, you can make her swan dive off high cliffs or swing across using helpful vines like Tarzan. However, interestingly, you may also encounter ruthless rivals who won't hesitate to shoot you... unless of course, you shoot them first!The best part about this game though is the game's brilliant Curse system. Much like the dreaded "Draw 4" cards in UNO, players can send curses to their friends in order to ruin their run. However, if you managed to survive the curse intact, you will be rewarded with a chance to get sweet, sweet revenge by sending a curse of your own in return!
Featuring gorgeous graphics and a fun and unique gameplay, Lara Croft: Relic Run is not a game that relies too heavily on the popularity of the game franchise it is based on. In fact, if you enjoy endless runner games, you should play this game regardless of whether you knew who Lara Croft is. It's that good!
Risk of Rain
Risk of Rain is a rogue-like, action platformer that is difficult enough to be challenging and is punishing (perma-death). You can choose to face the constantly spawning enemies alone - well, not exactly since you'll have your drone - or cooperatively with up to 3 other friends in hopes of collecting all the tools you need to find the teleporter machine and to finally, head back home. The enemies you fight are randomly generated by combining traits and abilities from a fixed yet extensive list as well, making the game a lot more unpredictable and hence, enjoyable.In addition to the 12 unique characters that you can unlock and a plethora of powerups to use, the game is also set on a mysterious planet with diverse biomes, ranging from dark forests to the frozen tundra. There is even an engrossing storyline which you can slowly piece together by collecting items and monster logs in your adventures.
Risk of Rain is definitely a fun and challenging platform game to play alone, but it particularly shines when you play it with friends. Time just seems to fly by in co-op mode and of course, let's not forget about the hilarious moments when one of you messed up (intentionally or otherwise).
