5 Things Wizards Unite Does Better Than Pokémon Go (And 5 It Doesn’t)

Harry Potter: Wizards Unite has just released, much to the delight of many Harry Potter fans. The game is made by Niantic, the same people who made Pokémon GO. The two games function in similar ways in that they both use mostly the same locations to gather supplies and participate in battles. They both also encourage collecting items and exploring the world around you through walk

Wizards Unite has many more aspects to it and can feel a bit harder to understand. While, overall, it’s still about collecting supplies and items, the story is more complex which can make it seem like less of a straight line to an end goal. It’s lacking a bit of that pick-up-and-play factor in compari

Putting aside its numerous cameos, Dead By Daylight is bloodcurdling fun. You either play as a survivor or the killer in Dead By Daylight. To play, you’ll need an internet connection, since the game is exclusively multiplayer onl

You might be surprised by the amount of detail contained in this budget-friendly adventure Game weapons. You should be able to pick up Slender: The Arrival for less than $10. The story revolves around the Slender Man, a mythical figure that originated as a creepypasta m

With Wizards Unite , however, the items you collect don’t seem as relevant. These items are anything from magical creatures to artifacts and more, so it just feels a little more random and less cohesive. There’s a bit less of a push to get out there and nab everything, as a res

Buckle Up is handy for spotting survivors in trouble and healing them will reveal where the killer is for a few seconds. But his ultimate ability, Mettle of Man, triggers whenever he receives three Protection Hit Score Events. Whenever he reaches full health, he is immediately visible to the killer, thus incentivizing playing injured or willingly acting as b

It’s considered one of the least popular maps and neither the killer nor the survivor has been able to make up for that. It’s a shame considering how popular Japanese horror is, but this DLC just didn’t st

One of the great things about Pokémon GO is that the objectives feel fairly simple. The main point is to walk around and catch as many Pokémon as you can and gather supplies at Pokéstops along the way. You can also participate in battles, but you don’t really have to in order to play the game and level

The reigning king of asymmetrical horror games, Dead by Daylight boasts many mega franchise IPs, including Halloween, Nightmare on Elm Street , and Resident Evil , to name but a few, with more to surely be added in future updates . BHVR is constantly adding new content, such as killers, survivors and m

Pokémon GO can be really fun, but unless you’re in a place where you can spend a lot of time walking around, you’re likely not going to be super active daily. It can also get a bit monotonous. Because Wizards Unite is more complex and varied, there are always little things going on that you can do, even while just sitting in your own ho

The reason it doesn’t rank lower is some fans like Springwood, as killers, but as survivors, there are too many corners, too many dead ends, and other places to be ambushed or cornered. Patches and slight tweaks have helped, but it’s still left a bad taste in players’ mou

Outlast 2 is a significant improvement over its predecessor. In this sequel, you play as a cameraman. As such, the footage from Outlast 2 comes out brighter and more vivid. Also, features of the tools of your trade (such as a sensitive microphone that allows you to hear footsteps) make the experience of Outlast 2 much more inte

While Wizards Unite definitely features a continuation of the lore, it does take a while to get acclimatised to what’s going on. You’re not a student at Hogwarts or anything directly from the series. In Pokémon Go, however, it’s very clear how you’re a part of the unive

You wouldn’t think an urban artist/graffitist would be all that useful in a survival situation, but Nea’s ability to avoid detection is surprisingly useful. Balanced Landing allows her to reduce the stagger that comes from falls and even start running for a few seco

Aside from “Man of Mettle”, most of his attributes don’t contribute much to the game. He places a little higher than some other single-character DLC since it comes in the form of a paragraph DLC, rather than taking up a whole chap

The disturbed ward is the asylum version of the Crotus Prenn maps that includes many places for survivors to take killers on a chase, including a shack, main buildings, and the greenhouse outside without it being too one-si

Frictional Games made a name for itself with Amnesia: The Dark Descent , a title that is largely responsible for the resurgence the horror genre has enjoyed in recent years. Its followup effort, Soma , may not have generated the same kind of buzz as Amnesia , but it is arguably the better, more polished game. Set in an underwater research facility filled with strange creatures, Soma is less about jump scares and more about building tension and scaring players with pure psychological hor
