✦ AI summary

INMATE: Survival suffers from widespread technical problems that severely hamper enjoyment, including broken crafting systems, frequent crashes, and poor graphics that make it difficult to recommend in its current state. While one player found 30 hours of value and praised the exploration potential, the overwhelming consensus is that the game feels abandoned and unfinished, with most players suggesting refunding if possible rather than playing.

Game is unplayable. Unable to build/craft floors, walls, doors. Also you cannot use the workbench, the furnace, the animal trap. Too many bugs in order to enjoy this game.

Love this game. 30 hours deep and still so much to explore and do. I'd like to see more crafting options and material/build options to keep it more interesting, and have more to do on the island. There isn't a solid tutorial so you have to figure things out on your own to keep advancing, so there is room for improvement.

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.
