This game has become my new obsession, and I would 100% recommend this game to anyone who enjoys beautiful/artsy casual survival/exploration games. What's funny is at the 1 hour mark I was close to quitting and refunding it as I wasn't very engaged and had read countless reviews warning of bugs. However, I played on in the story and by hour 2 I was fully emersed. I hope you will give this game a chance as it has real potential and has already improved bug wise drastically since launch. I'll break my review down into three sections: the first, being my favorite parts of the game, the second, things that took time to grow on me, and third, where the game still needs work. Why I love the game. The main I had to the game was the premise, but also the look. Even 25 hours in I still take a few moments here and there to admire the landscape, or look on to my ever growing village. The natural progression that the story mode seamlessly teaches you, allows you to take your own pace and learn the mechanics on your own. I also enjoyed the subtle complexities in the mechanics that push you to experiment and accomplish growth without holding your hand too much. While the story is great with te…

I started playing this game a couple of days ago and have been playing every evening for a few hours at a time. I'm having SUCH a fun time with this game. Some other reviews here said that the game was ridden with bugs, but I'm guessing the dev team must have fixed a lot of them because I've had a completely smooth experience so far. The artstyle is really beautiful, and it might throw some off at first, but it fits very well with the ennvironment and style of the game. If anyone out there is a history buff with a fixation on the stone age (like me), this game will let you live out your caveman fantasies. The early game doesn't do a super amazing job of explaining a lot of it's mechanics and you end up kind of having to figure a lot of things out for yourself, which depending on the kind of person you are, you'll either love that or you'll hate that. I will say this though, I found that the amount of effort I had to put in to learn the games mechanics made it feel extremely satisfying when I finally got in the groove of it. It felt like a lot more of an accomplishment. I really enjoy hunting, but i will say that right now, hunting doesn't seem the most challenging. Me personally…

I love this game, but it has a few features that make it almost unbearable at times. Finding mammoths is unbearable. I’ve uncovered almost 50% of my map, explored every biome I can find, and I have yet to see a single mammoth. I understand they’re supposed to be rare, but at this point it feels excessive. Farming is exhausting. There are no developed tools or upgrades that really help speed up the farming process. Everything takes an incredible amount of manual work—and don’t even get me started on making flour. The entire process is way too tedious. Animals constantly get stuck underwater. I’ve had multiple animals get trapped underwater, and no matter how many times I use the unstuck option, they barely move and often end up stuck again. Aside from those issues, I really enjoy the game. The lighting is great, the scenery is beautiful, and the overall atmosphere is amazing. There’s a lot to love here, but some of these mechanics desperately need quality-of-life improvements.

amaizing game, but need more improvements on movements on aiming and tools use.. Bose fights (espesialy mamoths are extremely hard) and no dificulty setings.. but overall good game.. hope bugs will be resolved and imporve more on mechanics and give more options in coming updates!

Holding the E key for every interaction gets old. really fast.

This game is still buggy for version 1.0.3.3. The villagers can't open the door to the house so they can't reach their bed go to sleep. The villagers can't open the enclosure gate to maintain animal husbandry. Every time I load the game, the house doors and enclosure gates are closed again, so I have to manually open them for the villagers. it gets annoying after awhile of doing this. For some reason when adding new villagers, some of the beds no longer register to the villagers so even though there's a perfectly good bed to sleep on, they would stand outside with the sleep character zzzz on their head. Animals and villagers often get stuck in the water. Quest givers sometimes move/teleport to unreachable terrain, so the trick is to spam the unstuck button to slowly inch them back to land where you can interact with them. One thing to note, I had a sh*t ton of food stockpile in the food storage, but as soon as I have 8 or more villagers, they all ate the food so quickly I don't have time to replenish it. I've also gave them tasks to gather food but that was not enough. Once their happy meter reaches zero, there's no recovering from it. Once they're in their mad/sad phase…
