Planet Zoo vs Transformice
Planet Zoo
Planet Zoo is one of the most anticipated zoo simulation game that is currently being developed by none other than the experts of simulation games, Frontier Development, the very people behind such successful titles as Jurassic World Evolution, Planet Coaster and Elite Dangerous. Similar to their previous titles, Planet Zoo is set to dominate the zoo sim/management genre with incredibly in-depth customization, different biomes to build your zoos in, and of course, lots and lots of animals!Although Planet Zoo is still pretty much a work in progress, what we could see in the game definitely made our jaws drop in amazement. The game has an impressive lineup of animals, and we’re sure they are planning to add even more as the game inches ever closer to its release date; plus, almost everything in the game is customizable, including your animals if you know how genetics work. Similar to their other games, Planet Zoo has Steam Workshop support, and from what we can see, an enthusiastic community who will keep the game alive years after its release.
Transformice
Transformice is a hilariously entertaining MMO platformer where you along with dozens of other mice will be jumping and running all over the place to be the first to bring back the cheese. Featuring a plethora of levels, realistic physics and an overall frantic gameplay, the game also appoints a random player as the almighty Shaman mouse who can decide to be the good samaritan and help the other little mice to get to the cheese or play the villain and make life a living hell for them. Besides having plenty of customization options, each player's mouse will have its own skill tree to upgrade.Interestingly, Transformice is a rather player-driven game. The game allows players to create their own game modes and maps in addition to the 7 official game modes and 200 official maps. This little yet significant feature helps to further extend the game's lifespan, giving players a chance to not only play games but also create games for other players to enjoy.
Being a somewhat competitive game, Transformice has a rarely ethical F2P business model where every item in the game is obtainable without spending any real money and if you do spend real money, the items you get are simply cosmetic in nature. Spenders and non-spenders will actually be on equal footing in this game, how awesome is that?
So, if you have a penchant for ridiculously funny platformers, Transformice is a game you won't want to miss out. Do give it a try!
