Given how busy our lives can get, and the plethora of games already plaguing our “to-play” list, you may be wondering if these titles are worth trying. The two games are quite different from one another, and based on your preferences, you might even try out both of them.
The Callisto Protocol is a visually gripping horror survival game set in the year 2320. Players journey through Callisto (Jupiter’s moon), playing the role of Jacob Lee. He must survive and fight against monstrous aliens called “Biophages” that have overrun a prison.
In our review of the game, we explored how the journey would often make use of a “thick, tense atmosphere, inducing an unshakable paranoia” throughout its gameplay.
On the other hand, Gigantic: Rampage Edition is a premium version of the third-person action MOBA that was originally released in 2017. The game blends hero-based mechanics and objectives that you may be familiar with if you’re a fan of DotA 2 or League of Legends.
The game’s distinct art style and fast-paced gameplay make it something you can pick up without thinking much, especially if you have a reliable squad to play with.
