What players say
I haven't played this game in a very long time, but when I did, I loved the atmosphere it created for the level of technology that could be used at the time of release. Game takes a bit to get used to, because it doesn't really play like a traditional survival base building game. Once you do get the hang of it, it can be quite fun if you appreciate it for what it is. I'm a fan of the survival genre, especially...
The idea is great, the co-op makes the game a lot easier and more enjoyable. 10/10 for the environment 14/10 for the everything weather relate 10/10 for the wolfies and sledge 0/10 cannot pet wolfies It's obvious they intended more content for this game and the ending was rushed. It's a shame it was never completed.
Seem like the Devs gave up halfway through this game...sad because a good game was there. Maybe another developers would buy the rights to this IP and believe in then potential this IP have. Like how Hexworks made the reboot "Lords of the Fallen"Good After Deck13 attempt to.
