Review title of CrioniteUnique and Enjoyable

I love how there aren't much games like this, I started with just the trial but right when it ended. I bought it right away just for how much I was into the game. If you like survival games with that hint of challenges, I suggest giving this a try. You can tell that the developers poured their hearts into the game, even if its still in the development stage.

Review title of thatguyuknow157Immersive and Emotional

Even though this game is still a "work in progress", the Sandbox mode offers hours of enjoyment. Through playing this game and trying to survive longer and longer, there's many times when you really start feeling a connection to your character as you frantically run through a blizzard in of food, shelter, and warmth. It can get pretty intense at points especially encountering the dangerous wildlife you'll find throughout the game. Oh and the music, don't even get me started on the soundtrack. It's an incredibly fitting soundtrack to an amazing game. It really helps you appreciate the sheer beauty of this game. It's truly breathtaking at some points in the game. I give this game a five star rating because I really think it earns through its immersive and emotional gameplay and with its beautiful soundtrack and scenery. I hope you can come to appreciate it as well.

Review title of omoon66Great Game

A pure survival game. It's pretty simple, survive. But it has good, challenging gameplay. You should've got it while it was $20, because that's a pretty good deal. But I've had many memories of this game, one including getting mauled by a bear.

Review title of THE8THDIMENSIONFinally A Worth While Update

So let me start off with the great potential this game has. It truly has a unique and beautiful enviroment that is incredibly easy to get lost in. However, the biggest gripe is the length of time it takes for an update. Thankfully it looks like Story Mode is coming in August, which has been much anticipated. Although they took their time bringing Story Mode, I am truly excited to give it a try, and so should you!

Review title of TheHowIingWolfeNeeds Cooperative Multiplayer

I love this game, been playing it for a very long time. With that being said, I only ask for cooperative gameplay to be added. No player vs player, just you and a friend against nature's wrath. However, it's still a very fun yet challenging game!

Review title of HowlingCraneVery Bewildered (Conflicted at First) 3.0

It overall is the best survival game that i had played so far. Although it is very basic and early in development, meaning that with 2 or 3 real life days you could have found everything, it makes this harder to achieve. Even on the easiest difficulty, i still find myself struggling to survive. With all the aspects of nature, such as temprature, wildlife, hunger, and other basic needs of life that are implemented into this game, it overall makes it more challenging and entertaining. Much more could be added, like a few handguns, a sniper, cars, more locations, story, and something like a character customization with traits u can choose like in Fallout. Something I REALLY HOPE happens is a co-op or multiplayer. But better yet, some way to build your own base and possibly harvest the winter winds to create electricity (Knowing this would take days and days of ingame time).But even in it's basic state currently, I find it satisfying, and what Im looking for. Definitely deserves 5 stars.

Review title of Runner43456The epitome of survival games

Ever since I downloaded this game I have enjoyed every moment, moments such as feeling the hairs on your neck rise when you see that bear, running from wolves, and sitting by the fire at the summit of a mountain. On top of moments like these it is the most beautiful game I have come across, with it's art style unrivaled, and breathtaking vistas, you'll have plenty of picture-perfect scenery all around you. The short of it is, if you love survival games that immerse you to where the hours tick by without a trace, and amazing beauty, then look no further friend, you have found it.

Review title of TollhundHighly Engaging, but crashes often.

I've been with this game since it was first released through the game preview program. It has grown to be the quintessencial resource management/survival simulator. Upside: it is highly engaging and detailed, forcing the player to be very careful of their choices. Downside: crashes roughly twice an hour while loading indoor locations. Please fix this and the other less serious but still irritating bugs.
