Rune Factory 3 vs The Endless Forest
Rune Factory 3
Rune Factory 3 provides players with a whole new adventure set in a realm where the people of Sharance and their horned Univir neighbors are embroiled in a bitter conflict due to an age-old hatred that divides them both. However, in this game, the protagonist - that's you by the way - is an adventurer with a rather unusual secret: You are half human and half monster. Due to your unique heritage, will you be the one the two races need to reunite in time to combat the growing evil force that threatens to destroy both humans and Univirs?In addition to the thrilling storyline, the gameplay in Rune Factory 3 is pretty much the same as the one before it. After all, it's a farm simulation game at its core. As usual, you can even go fishing or set off on an adventure to fight monsters.
The Endless Forest
The Endless Forest isn't exactly a game but more of a playable screensaver. When your computer goes to sleep, this program will run and your deer character will then appear in a seemingly endless forest. There's no objective or quests for you to complete here. Instead, you are given total freedom to explore the forest and if you're lucky, you may discover something special along the way.However, this is about to change because the developer behind this screensaver program decided to turn it into a full-blown MMO, allowing players from all over the world interact and play together as deers. There's no chat box in the game and instead, you'll need to learn to communicate as deers do, that is through sound and body movement. There will also be more places for you to explore, besides the endless forest, as well as fun and relaxing activities to do.
You can still download the screensaver version of The Endless Forest is you want to get an idea of what the game would be about - It's completely free, after all, but if you want to play the actual game, you might need to wait a bit since the game's still under development.
