Customer Reviews
I've already told myself I'd stop playing. I lied...
Honestly, this game is amazing. I play a lot of Don't Starve, and this is basically the same as the others. I love this game. The resource gathering is either relatively easy or actually fun (unlike other resource gathering mechanics *cough cough* Crashlands *cough cough*). It has a good fighting mechanic as well. Enemies spawn is specific areas and are usually pretty difficult. The characters have a lot of diversity between them, except for the fact that literally all of their names start with the letter "W". It also doesn't feel like my character is my crutch, which is something I hate about games with multiple playable characters. It has a good balance between resource gathering, fighting, bosses, trying your hardest to survive, making a base, exploring, and of course, not starving. Each mechanic, including the crafting, goes hand and hand. The humor is dark, just how I like it, and most importantly, it's fun! The only thing I hate about this game is the controls, which I hate less and less the more I play. It's great to those who enjoy high quality games. And to answer your question, yes, it is worth the $5.00 price tag.
Game is senseless but addicting
This game has no point. You run around gathering and looking for items, building contraption and weapons, and doing your best to avoid what I have now concluded is almost inevitable death. The list of items attempting to kill your character includes: hunger, insanity, weather, darkness, monsters, pigs, frogs, spiders, and cyclops resembling birds. Early on, the game requires you to play the role of a hunter-gatherer to survive, but eventually allows you to become a farmer for your survival. Despite the difficult and monotonous nature of the game, the more I play the game, the more I want to play. Each time you go play through and meet your ultimate death, you can develop a different hopefully more effective strategy for survival in the game. I have found that making plans on what you want to accomplish is the best chance at survival in the game. Anyway, this game is great despite having no storyline and being a nonsensical game overall. I give it four stars instead of five, primarily because it has no story and very little in the way of instructions.
Get on computer
This game is Probably one of if not my favorite games. I highly suggest getting this on the computer because you can get mods it runs smoother (I had a world that was so big and had so many structures that it lagged a lot) and it's easier to build and fight and click on stuff. But this game is still great and has all the features ( not counting mods) that the computer does/ other than a bit of clunky controls. And it is just so much darn fun and their is so much replay able content. What I love about this game is the amazing creative creatures/biomes/voice lines/ characters/ and so much more. And not only that for example I love Pokémon but if you just keep playing it gets so easy. This game is a challenge and stays a challenge with the temperature /hunger/sanity/and bosses. Which I love, also if you like this game I suggest getting the shipwrecked version. So in conclusion I highly suggest this amazing game and I hope u enjoy.
