Edge Islands

UPDATED REVIEW 25.04.2026: This game seems to be doing many things right, but there is still some lack of clarity in what each job does, what runes do (in terms of what exact bonuses do they give, per rune, when applied to an armor or a weapon) and some jobs don't seem to be performed properly after a while. - Some bugs only seem to appear several hours in, like water not getting grabbed, or pawns cooking and making potions non-stop (not even sleeping). - Runes and and wood are a constant bottleneck, and the trading system is punishing rather than enjoyable. As soon as you try to sell stuff, the time required for trading explodes exponentially. At least there is a lot of wood to be bought, but the Runes remain a massive bottleneck since they cannot be bought. - Some mobs seem to be overpowered for their level. There needs to be better balancing on this front. I think the game still needs some time to cook, and I am glad the developer is keeping the game updated.

Its a fun game. Kinda like Going Medieval. Gets a bit repetitive but I enjoy the character-building and combat.

This game is highly addictive and is becoming one of my favorites. I suggest starting on the lower difficulty to get the hang of it.

its fun!

Game crashes at the loading screen every single time. I have tried all 3 versions of the game and it happens on all 3. Also, I have to unplug one of my gaming peripherals when I start this game otherwise the game thinks im constantly holding the down button. Ill check back after this cooks longer. Refunding for now..too janky.

The overworld movement is utterly terrible. Characters refuse to move if they are on recreation, but it isnt indicated. The combat is awful. I think I spent 30 minutes and I'd already had enough. Tried it again today for another 30min. Large map / very large map optimiation is poor, play standard. Again, the movement just makes my brain hurt.
