Sparta: War of Empires vs They Are Billions
Sparta: War of Empires
Sparta: War of Empires is perhaps one of Plarium’s most successful MMO strategy games. In this game, you’ll get to take on Xerxes and the Persian Empire and leave your mark among the greatest heroes in Hellas! Assume your role as the Archon of a growing city-state and develop it into the mighty empire it can become. Amass your armies and send them to crush your enemies, be it a fellow player or the Persians themselves. Forge alliances with your neighbors, but be careful – you’ll need all your wits and military strength to ensure they won’t stab you in the back when you need their help the most.With quality and engaging gameplay, superb music and graphics, as well as a strong community of players who will go to great lengths to hold the frontlines against the Persians, Sparta: War of Empire is definitely the sort of MMO game that you can fully immerse yourself in.
They Are Billions
They Are Billions is a hardcore, steampunk-themed empire-building/ real-time strategy game that is set in a dark and gloomy post-apocalyptic world (Not Earth). The game plays out like an actual RTS whereby you need to not only develop your castle into a sprawling empire, but also manage your empire's resources and defenses, and making sure that none of the billions of zombies out there are able to infiltrate your defenses... or things can easily escalate from having a single zombie to deal with to an entire horde.This indie game made waves in the gaming industry mainly because of its unique zombie system. As you all "The Walking Dead" fans should know, whenever a zombie attacks and kills a human, the plague that's around will reanimate the fallen corpse and turn it into a new zombie. This system is implemented in this game, making even a single zombie that had made it past your defenses a very costly mistake. That's not taking into account the periodic zombie invasions which usually consist of a massive swarm of zombies, some of which are tougher to kill than most, that sub-par defenses won't be able to handle.
They Are Billions is definitely not the sort of strategy game to play if you simply don't have the time or the patience to figure out the best strategy to protect your population from the many infected out there. However, if you're the sort who is always up for a challenge, you might find this game a rare delicious treat!
