So I thought I would give this game a go - its a man v nature type game where you survive a plane crash and find yourself ship wrecked on a desert island. From there it is basically get a stone, get a stick, get some twine, make an axe, cut down a tree etc etc.
I found this game very formulaic and boring. You make a knife or a spear and after you use it so many times you have to build a new one... then you work your way up to hunting for food - crabs and fruit... lighting fires, cooking crabs until the little island you are on starts to run out of resources... then its into a dinghy avoiding sharks until you get to the next little island and rinse and repeat.
The graphics arent bad even though the game was released in 2015 but overall I liked the initial concept but fairly quickly tired of the relentless crafting just too survive.
I mean its not that exciting when its a race to find a coconut before you die of thirst or you need to find a shadow before the sun fries you.
At the back of all this and your ticket to freedom is scavenging for bits to build a plane. I just survived a plane crash... the last thing I would wanna do is build a plane from rusty old bits and attempt to fly outta there... I would quite happily sit under a palm tree fishing while munching on crabs and drinking coconut juice and await a passing boat than risk going airborne again.
So yeah... rant over... not a great game. 2 out of 5 from me.
