What players say
just an amazing comfy game sometimes i imagine that i'm alone on the moon, just blissfully building roads and rooms and making stew. no one to talk to, nothing new. me, the wind, and the moon.
In my opinion, one of the best games out today. But could be better with new content. I found the progression to be very well thought out and with the right settings - wink wink - goes very smoothly! Highly recommend it!
It's...fine. The bones are decent, and it's pretty fun on the first few stints. It scratches a base building diet survival itch. The problem is that it's shallow, and if you're an achievement hunter you're going to be spending 80% of the time invested in this game repeating that same shallow gameplay loop. Decent to grab on a sale.
