Another project developed by Russian game designers. sZone Online - this is the game about which everything is clear from the name. Mutants, artifacts, stalkers, radiation - all this and not only awaits the players.
However, there are a lot of bugs, and the graphics leave much to be desired, so not everyone will like it.
1. Stalker Online
Closes our today's list of the game, which is very similar to the previous one, but many times better. Stalker online can not be called an ideal shooter about the Zone, but compared to the same sZone it is simply magnificent.
The developers were inspired not only by the books of the Strugatsky brothers and original games, but also by Andrei Tarkovsky's film "Stalker", which the director shot in 1979. Such a reverent attitude towards the universe deserves respect, and the game deserves your attention.
