Riders of Icarus vs Trove
Riders of Icarus
Riders of Icarus is an action-based MMORPG that has a heavy focus on its “pets" system which has you taming all sorts of different beasts and animals, each with their own unique abilities, throughout a vast and breathtaking world. Of course, these creatures can then be turned into rideable mounts, allowng you to easily traverse through land, water and even the skies. Although the storyline seems a bit lacking, the game's exciting action-based combat system makes up for it in many ways.So, if you have always wanted to ride behind a magnificent dragon, soaring through the skies, then Riders of Icarus is a game you'll want to try. Even if not, try the game anyway and experience a wild world that's primed for you to tame!
Trove
Trove is a voxel-based sandbox MMORPG that is quite similar to the insanely-popular game, Minecraft. Uniquely though, Trove has a lot more of the MMO element rather than Minecraft. You can play as any 1 of the whopping 14 character classes available and venture out into the many different biomes and worlds to search for resources (both common and rare) to gather, dungeons to conquer and randomly-spawned world bosses to defeat. There are even plenty of cool-looking mounts and pets that you can search for and collect.Not to mention, you can have fun turning the stuff you've collected into various tools and weapons via the game's in-depth crafting system too. Or you could simply use these blocks as building materials to construct your own home in allocated spots scattered throughout the game world. Interestingly, the game also allows players to use its sandbox feature to design and build amazing dungeons. All submitted player-made dungeons will then be judged by the developers and a select few will then make it into the actual game world. How amazing it would be to see players trying their darnest to raid a dungeon you've built!
It's a no brainer that if you enjoy Minecraft but find its multiplayer a bit lacking, then you'll love Trove. However, we would definitely recommend this game to anyone who loves voxel-based sandbox games like Roblox and Kogama as well.
