I thoroughly enjoyed this game, although I did prefer the first one.
The story was simultaneously heart-wrenching and heart-warming.

The hacking system from 1 unfortunately isn't present, but I understand why thematically.
The dice breaking mechanic isn't my cup of tea, it just ends up being annoying in the end.
The contracts system was a really fun new mechanic that upped the ante a bit.

Overrall a great game, I hope we get to see more from the Citizen Sleeper universe

Above Snakes is a fun little open world sandbox survival game, with the unique twist being the tile-based world generation.
It’s easy to figure out, and good in short bursts.

The early game is great. The tile-based concept is satisfying, and the progression of exploring, crafting, and unlocking tiles feels rewarding. Mid-game, though, things start to feel a bit stale. The early food options stay the best all the way through. Resource gathering becomes a chore, having to run to other sides of the map.

The crafting and base-building are fine. Not too complicated or annoying, forgiving inventory system, but nothing to write home about either.

Thew story/writing are... really bad (possibly even a bit problematic?). The story surrounds Native American culture, but is kinda lazy and tone deaf.

It wasn't for me, but I can see why people might like it.

Lots more variety in gameplay styles compared to the 1st, but I prefer 1 to 2

A really fun horde builder game. Simplistic/repetitive gameplay loop, but overall quite a fun ride. I can't think of any similar games, but I'd put it in a similar vein to Overlord

Fun experience. A really unique twist on the classic walking sim. The story is really simple but is left open enough for that horror mystery feel.
Buy this for the visuals
