Little Nightmares vs S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl
Little Nightmares
Little Nightmares is a dark and atmospheric puzzle-adventure game that has a rather nice Tim Burton style and vibe, as well as a really deep story that will force you to figure it out by making connections between the many symbolisms in the game. In this game, you play as a yellow-hooded child called Six who happened to be trapped in a nightmare called the Maw. You'll need to help Six escape from the terrifying place at any cost!Little Nightmares has a really amazing feeling overall, but it has quite a number of flaws. The controls for instance is incredibly clunky, resulting in more deaths than necessary frankly. The game's autosave points are too rare and far in between, making the game rather frustrating to play at times. Of course, the most important of all, the game has a fairly short adventure and thus, the price it is asking for might just be a bit too expensive. But if you do want to try this game, you may want to buy the game during a promotion.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl is the first of a hugely popular post-apocalyptic-themed, first-person, survival-horror shooter which might have just amassed a cult following. Set in 2012, almost two decades after the worst nuclear disaster occured at the Chernobyl power station and around 6 years after a second explosion rocked the damaged reactor, causing various anomalies to ripple open and from them came waves of mutated creatures, deadly radiation and also rare artifacts that are somehow imbued with powerful anomalous energy... artifacts that many would kill to have.Since then, the existence of such artifacts have brought forth groups of "stalkers", scavengers who scour the cordoned areas around Chernobyl for these very objects... and in this game, you play as one of them.
The game has risen to acclamation partly due to the terrifying, nightmarish creatures that the game contains, in addition to the brilliantly immersive storyline and an incredibly realistic game environemnt that's modelled after its real-world counterpart deep inside the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. The gameplay is excellent as well. The game has accurate ballstics and combat mechanics, as well as a challenging survival aspect that is further made difficult due to the impact day and night, and the weather system has on the environment. There is also a multiplayer mode that can support up to 32 players.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Shadow of Chernobyl has just celebrated its 10-year anniversary earlier this year and as such, many aspects of the game aren't really up to scratch by today's standards at least. If you do plan on getting this game, you might want to download some mods to help improve the game somewhat.
