South America Gold Rush

****** UPDATE, MY RESPONSE TO THE DEVELOPER RESPONSE ****** These developer responses almost never cease to blow my mind, and often they only reinforce my negative review. Such is definitely the case here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OENL1IgZaw ------ ORIGINAL UN-EDITED REVIEW FROM JUNE 6th, 2025 ------ An empty island with ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO! There are no enemies, there is no objective, there is no purpose to this game. THIS IS NO EXCUSE FOR LAUNCHING A GAME IN THIS UNDEVELOPED OF A STATE INTO "EARLY ACCESS"!! Even Steam advises you as an indie developer that Early Access is NOT for launching games that are only about 10% complete with no content. ..And that's what we have here people. https://youtu.be/YR3u5jdwnyQ NOT RECOMMENDED. There is nothing to say here because there is nothing to actually review. There is NO GAME here at all. It's just an empty Unreal engine map no NO CONTENT! ..Why would anyone pay a nickel for this, much less pay $15 USD?!?

Excellent project on-going! The Bandeiras enterprises never got its light on gaming industry before, even though it was an incredible adventure movement on Brazilian and Portugal histories. That's why I love this game project! Reliving bandeirantes' lives is exciting! I hope they keep up developing and updating the game as they are right now (weekly, usually), so I'm supporting it even though it's still on early access. I'll update this review once there's a big development leap!

A game that isn’t worth its 15 dollars or 50 reais. The only functionality it has is cutting wood on Unreal Engine’s default map. Aside from the artistic part, the rest of the game’s features look like assets from the Unreal marketplace. Releasing a game that can’t even be considered a beta phase, but rather a first playable demo, at this price is basically robbing the buyer. Before releasing a game, it’s preferable that—even in early access—there should be something to do besides cutting trees and walking around Unreal’s default map.

ecommended!!!!!! I really liked the idea of the game, even though it's a demo! The proposal of a survival crafting game in a setting we don't see anywhere else: 17th century Brazil. Finally, a game that uniquely explores Brazilian history and flora, going through the Atlantic Forest, hunting, exploring, it seemed very immersive to me, congratulations to the Argo Games team. A survival gameplay, in my experience with the Bandeirantes demo, has everything to be a good survival game: collecting resources, planting, hunting, fishing, and defending against enemies like wild animals, and that's what I hope for in the final version

Finally a game of Brazilian history. I don't have problems in helping the game develop as it is said in the description, after all, it'll influence the young to get curious about this period in Brazilian history and enjoy studying it. I can't wait to see it finish in the long run.
