Space Engineers vs Trove
Space Engineers
Space Engineers is an absolutely brilliant and incredibly in-depth sandbox game where you can build your space colony from the ground up, explore space and planets via open-world creative mode, survival mode or scenario-based campaigns, or enjoy some simple fun with other players its other multiplayer-oriented game modes like its racing game mode or its MMO shooter “capture the flag”-style mode.To sum it up, Space Engineers is truly a masterpiece of a very ambitious game especially considering its humble indie roots. The game seems to be a fun hybrid of Everspace, Minecraft, and Satisfactory, all of which are games that I’ve greatly enjoyed. However, I’d like to reiterate that playing the game in multiplayer mode with your friends is the way to go since single-player mode can feel rather boring.
All in all, this is the space game that players have always wanted… no, hungered for. If you liked what you’ve read, be sure to check the game out on Steam and maybe give the game a shot!
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.
