About Demesne

You must now fight for your survival by any means necessary. You must forage and hunt for food as well as protect yourself from wild animals and possibly other people trapped inside with you. You must find shelter to survive the unforgiving nights. As you do so, you will very likely encroach on the demesne claimed by someone other than you. The animals of the wild have laid claim to this forgotten land. This is now their demesne. You’re in their world, now…

Our desire is to combine all the survival aspects of the games you’ve come to love and incorporate beautiful graphics and a much more realistic survival experience. There are no supernatural elements here. It’s you against the things that you would be experiencing in a real survival situation.

It is not the kind of a game that bores you after a couple of days. It’s a really challenging and realistic project where you have to survive. You will have to hunt, pass the cold rivers of the Taiga, find friends, live in caves or buildings and constantly fight for your life as you explore the beautiful forested areas and man-made structures found on the map!

The game will not contain zombies, monsters and anything like that. You will find real human beings and animals found in the real world.

You will not find any weapons or items that would not exist in these places and years.

Our game is for those of you who want to experience fishing, hunting, exploring nature, adventuring and surviving in the truest sense of the word. If you want to feel yourself in extreme survival circumstances - this game is for you!

-----

What will you be doing in our game?

The main objective of the game is to survive in the taiga.

Explore the territory on foot or by alternate means. (Vehicles such as a trucks, horses, etc.)

First of all, you will have to hunt, earning yourself the meat, skin, bones, tendons, etc. If you have no means to cook the meat, you may eat it raw. If you eat the meat raw, you will risk being poisoned or becoming ill. You can also use meat as bait for predators and for fishing.

* With skin you can craft cloth, belts, rope, bags, tents and sleeping bags.
* With bones you can craft needles, glue, wild game calls and fish-hooks.
*Sinew can be used for thread and rope. Players will also be able to build a temporary shelter and pitch a tent.

It will be necessary to monitor your clothes, so that they are in the good condition, such as dry and warm. You will be hungry. You will always be afraid of someone or something. It will be cold and wet. You will be ill and damaged.

The game will have weapons and gear.

* The firearms will only be hunting rifles and semi-automatic pistols, with the gate and the front sight; combined.
* The bladed weapons will be knives, axes, spears and bows.
* The fishing gear will be: loops, traps, fishing rods and so on. These all can be used by player as a means of self-protection.

-----

What animals will you encounter within the territory?

Primary Enemies: Wolves. They are very defensive and dangerous because you are encroaching on their territory. Grappling with them is almost always fatal and will end your game. Wolves can appear one at a time or more rarely in packs of three or more. Think twice before you shoot at an unarmed man, because the wolves can hear the shot and move in on you quickly and without mercy.

* Predators: You will encounter fierce predators such as the aforementioned wolves, as well as tigers, bears and lynx.
* Herbivores: You will also encounter more docile animals such as deer, roe deer, wild boar and elk.
* Fish: When you cast your line with hopes of catching dinner, you can possibly catch grayling, goldilocks, pike, catfish, carp and chum.
* Game birds: There will also be birds to hunt for food such as pheasant, grouse, mallard and teal.

Demesne is a Single Player Survival game where the objective is to hunt, find food, make shelter and survive. The idea of the game is taken from "Rust" but the game itself is not properly developed. First of all, getting in the game everything is very loud and when you go into options to change the volume, it does not work. Restarting the game does not help either and you have to manually turn down the volume from your Windows Volume Control. After starting the game you see forest with trees and lakes but no Map or a pointer to where you should be going. You try to explore the map yourself but the character moves so slow and your energy bar is so low that you cannot run for more than 10 seconds. Your Inventory tab is in Russian Language and Key Bindings have not been given to change anything. The game is in Early Access but seems to me they just wanted to release something they did not work on at all. I uninstalled the game after 15 minutes of its gameplay and would not recommend anyone wasting their $20 on this so called 'game'. This review is part of the Steamified Community Review program.

Do not buy. No updates in 17-18 months, that time is too long. Even I could make something to update in that time. Hopefully we'll get a developers response, if not this is a dead game and you have been warned. As of today, June 23 2019 the dev hasn't logged in 800 days, so clearly he's not going to develop this game. Too bad, I liked the non existent content. May this game be announced as abandoned project.

I don't recommend for now and this is why. There's only 10 items in game that you can craft, animals are scares, I only saw one structure a cabin throughout the whole map that I ran around, no base building, the UI and some of the items in game are from unity store. You start off with a bow, but no arrows, so I ran around finding sticks and rocks off the ground, started crafting arrows, ran, ran and ran, but avoid the swamp, because you will sink to your death. I ended up being killed by a bear (asset) after playing for 15 minutes.

I want a refund. This only gets to the title screen and when I click on 'continue' game.exe crashes back to the desktop. I've tried reinstalling but with same issue. When I try to validate the file it fails so I redownload the file and it fails again. It just won't work and I have an MSI gt80 titan, so there's more then enough grunt to run this game. Please fix this devs or give me a refund, this does look good and I want to play it.. very disappointed .

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
