The Greedy Cave 2: Time Gate vs The Pit: Infinity
The Greedy Cave 2: Time Gate
The Greedy Cave 2: Time Gate is the highly-anticipated sequel to the roguelike dungeon crawler niche hit of the same name. The gameplay is pretty much similar to the latter - it can get rather grindy after a while. This also means turn-based combat supplemented by skills, gear that can be upgraded, and loot that you can only bring out of the dungeon if it has a grade that's gold or above.What's different about this game though is the fact that you can team up with other players and head into the dungeon together in real time! The game is also a lot more social since it has a guild feature which allows players-slash-adventurers to find reliable buddies to raid dungeons with. Although there isn't exactly a story per se in the original game, this time around, the game showcases a short yet well-described introduction which explains the presence of a so-called time gate which appeared in town one day.
The social features in The Greedy Cave 2: Time Gate is definitely a step in the right direction for the game franchise. However, the game is still in development and hence, many (other) aspects of the game aren't as nice as they should be right now. With feedback from the players and changes to the game, hopefully, this sequel will turn out to be as great as the original!
The Pit: Infinity
The Pit: Infinity is a creepy, sci-fi-themed, first-person shooter/roguelike that’s set in an abandoned laboratory that’s overrun by aliens and monstrous creatures, and the goal here is to descend through the many levels of the facility, clearing out enemies in hopes of finding the source and the cure to a plague that had decimated the population on that very planet. Scavenge for crucial resources, battle increasingly difficult creatures, and find the elevator that will bring you one floor closer to the bottom!However, due to the many bugs and issues with The Pit which made it looked like it's an early access game, The Pit: Infinity is unfortunately not the sort of game I would recommend you to buy – definitely not at full price - due to the huge list of bugs and issues that sorely need fixing, but that is not to say that the game isn’t playable or at all fun. I’ve managed to startle myself a good few times while playing the game and, in a resource management way, the game is actually quite satisfyingly challenging to play.
Definitely a game that you might want to add to your wishlist for now if you love the original and/or the genre, and maybe you could check in now and then to see how much of the game has been patched up over time.
