Its good

This is a Sandbox game first and foremost, the story is survival, crafting and establishing outposts / bases. There is no campaign or storyline, you make it up as you go. Death is not final (unless you enabled hardcore mode)

You can immediately feel the inspiration from Skyrim/Fallout in the inventory and POI design. Where this game sets itself apart is by taking the basic foundation of Fallout 4's building mechanics and placing a significant emphasis on granular item use and management.

Key Systems:

Item Economy: Crafting, dismantling, and repairing gear are core loop elements.

Logistics: Seamless item transfer between vehicles and weapon modding.

Atmosphere: Leaving notes, playing media files on TVs, and extensive decorating.

Advancement: Recipes unlocked via skill books or through finding and examining items in the world.

Infrastructure: A deep power and water system for security cameras and appliances.

Fluids: Every container handles liquid, allowing necessary siphoning and transfer operations.

The game successfully occupies a niche: it’s exploration, base-building, crafting, scavenging, combat, and relaxation all in one package. The ability to pause, save, and use developer commands at will is a smart concession—it’s necessary given the lack of hand-holding.

Conclusion: It passes the $20 test easily.

It is fundamentally structured to be an excellent PVE co-op experience. The extensive tools—walkie-talkies, ham radios, tents, and hunting—confirm its suitability for group survival.

🎯 Essential Field Guidance
Initial Gear-Up: Secure a weapon and a vehicle, then immediately make a beeline for the lakes.

Establishing Shelter: Locate a secluded house and focus on building a utility crate. Afterward, begin exploring to find schematics, books, and resources to furnish your base.

Safety Protocol: Your save point is your bed.

Utility Gear: Passive effects are attached to items like gloves, jackets, and sweats (e.g., warmth, shock resistance). Gloves are particularly important for easing the hotwiring of cars.

Forcible Entry: Door locks can be removed, and doors can be destroyed—perhaps all of them with sufficient firepower.


Some updates they've made since my initial review:

We've added an option to fill fluid containers, like water barrels, from the closest gas pump or water tower, similar to how vehicle gas tanks work. This was a highly requested feature. We're working on simplifying how fluid transfers work in general as there are a few gaps in the design currently.

Hazmat suits and rebreathers now block smells.

We did some fixes for moving vehicles breaking stuff in and around them. Vehicles can no longer damage things that are attached to them, and we fixed stuff becoming detached from vehicles in some cases after loading in.

boring as ♥♥♥♥, i was 1 hr in and the only combat I saw was at scripted scenes and a single boar I found.

The game is a boar

This game is pretty good. Nice change of pace to the survivor formula.

The game works like such

Pick a hero that starts with his own ball and boon, go into dungeon, kill, collect resources, collect blueprints, attempt to clear all bosses for a "gear" which will open up new dungeons.

After your run you come back to your town and either place buildings or upgrade buildings.

The upgrades to the buildings either generate more resources or permanently increase your stats.

As you play each character your stats will level up with you, as well as certain levels seem to unlock buffs for your buildings.

Its fun. I hope they continue to support the game

By far this is the best rougelight survivors style game I have played so far. It has a large amount of weapons and mods with the gear. Its pretty hard but you make progress with each run so it doesnt feel like a waste of time *cough* bonk *cough*

if you need something that doesnt require you to be 100% focused but still want to make some progress and earn some dopamine. This is the game.

Hands down the best buy under 13$ on steam for replayability and the one more run, pause break boon

This game is fun, doesnt require you to be a caffeine twitch gamer, just avoid danger and youre set.

Lots of replay value so far as the core grind is unlocking new gear/upgrades so you can level and clear faster

seems ok

This is a mix of ilde, fishing, decorating and selling.

The fish grow to be different visual sizes, and even mate to turn into different fish breeds.

The decortation is essential to receiving likes, however the variety will eventually be somewhat lacking. Please include more decoration options or allow more likes to be granted
(right now there are 5 likes per day)

The likes are used for quests that provide currency for current (seasonal) quests. In this current season there is a fish egg as the main reward with lots of other items for your tank.

My biggest recomendation is randomizing the visual look of these fish, we have a player market but the fish stats are simply not enough.

Great game. Worth 5$

its good but i feel like its missing something

is it worth 70 dollars? NO
Is it a good game? Yes
Does it run good? Yes
Do lots of people play? Yes
Can you mic spam? Yes

Lots of jump scares - Great Halloween game!
everytime I see a door, I am in fear there is a guy with a chainsaw and grenade launcher standing on the other side.

This games maps are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ great, especially the later int he game you go. The game loves to set you against traps. Think Indiana jones level traps - Darts out of the wall - Moving walls, moving floors - Buttons to shoot - Buttons to activate - I honestly havent played any recent games that include this level of traps and scares.

Great game, well worth the money, even in this day
