Mini DayZ vs S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky
Mini DayZ
Mini DayZ is a brilliant survival game in which you have to outlast the zombie apocalypse as well as anything hostile that might just kill you. The game includes an open world map full of resources and zombies on the move. You can and should harvest resources, grow plants, build a base and craft a wide variety of new tools, weapons and items that will help you survive the next couple of days. There are plenty of AI survivors you can meet as well, some of whom are friendly while others are hostile. If you play the game on its multiplayer mode, you may even encounter other players too.The absolute best thing about this game is that Mini Dayz is completely, 100% free-to-play. There are no in-app purchases whatsoever! So, if you do find yourself being beaten to death by another player with a baseball bat, you'll have no one else but yourself to blame.
With exciting crafting options and a harcore gameplay where your survival needs come first and foremost, the game is a brilliant addition to the survival game genre, especially considering there aren't many great ones on the mobile platform. It is a pretty good alternative to Last Day on Earth to be honest, so if you're a fan of the latter, you might want to check this out.
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky
S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky is the second installment in the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series and yet is the prequel to the original game. In this game, a group of stalkers have unwittingly triggered an explosion of anomalies when they ventured into the heart of the exclusion zone - the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant itself, turning the entire zone into an unstable mess that continues to quake with anomaly outbursts. Stalker factions have also erupted, further adding to the overall chaos of the region.S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky is essentially similar to the previous game, though it does have some significant improvements. For instance, the game is a lot more stable, which is ironic considering that all the storyline in this game talks about is how unstable the zone is. The weapons and armor in the game work better than in the original since they can, finally, be repaired. Artifacts are harder to find here but is a lot more rewarding and well, generally the overall setting feel a lot more realistic.
This is definitely a nicer game to play than its first game, but it's not really comparable to the third game of course. However, if you love the S.T.A.L.K.E.R., you might still want to consider buying all three games via its Steam bundle.
