What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

The Front is a survival co-op game that shows promise but suffers from significant technical issues and limited content, with players reporting vehicle bugs, poor optimization, and a single map with repetitive environments similar to an unfinished ARK. The game has seen minimal updates over several months despite being in 1.0, leading many players to view it as incomplete and not yet worth the investment of time, though some remain hopeful it will receive continued development and improvements.

In some places it feels like the alpha version of ARK, in others like the beta. There’s only one playable map, fewer resource types, no diverse fauna to fight and tame, and basically one group of mobs for the entire map. Whatever you see around the starting area + the first dungeon is pretty much what you’ll be seeing everywhere else too. And it’s been about six months with no updates and no fixes for the existing issues. Dead game?

has promise. dont think it is really at 1.0 yet. my vehicle kept bugging out, would freeze and become undriveable while im ssitting in it. last time i got out of it it disapeared and checking the server logs it appeared to fall below the ground, giving heaps of error/collision messages on the servers screen. hope it keeps getting worked on. like i cais, it has great potential and id love to keep playing it but for now, its not really ready to dump heaps of hours in.

They have started to fix things. glitches are disappearing and the game is getting filled in slowly. the PVE is not working exactly correct. the turrets still target players but players cannot do damage to the turrets.

Games like Noita for the two things it really does: spells you assemble yourself, and a simulated world that takes nobody's side. Seven picks, from a slugcat to a dwarf fortress.
