Too simple, too slow, too pretentious

So you have to gather materials to repair your ship and for basic survival purposes. You do the things and you win. There's supposed to be some drama in the (mostly) inner monologues the characters are having. One is, I think, at some point hearing voices but it's entirely lost because it's all done in the same speech bubble. And while we're on speech bubbles: occasionally the text will be longer than fits in the bubble. Developers didn't care. I got the same excitement as when I read scenarios in math problems. Let me break down the selling points in the description: - Base micro-management in extremely hostile conditions + Do the things, you win. Occupational therapy. - Randomly assigned crew members with different skills and stories in each gameplay + You can train anyone another skill - Different needs to satisfy: nutrition, physical condition and mental health + Mental health? Didn't notice that at all. Eat and heal, done. - Non-obvious sci-fi plot + Read: pretentious - Ominous presence of the Symmetrical World + No idea - Moral choices – collectivism vs individualism + Also no clue - Unique vector graphics and ambient sound setting + Hah, play Another World. Same graphics, same setting even, awesome game. Hardly any music but that's also lacking here. - High replay-ability and various strategies to beat the game + No - Survival game mode unlocked once the main mission is accomplished + Couldn't be arsed to check it out So you do the things, the heaters and fridge take turns breaking down which is just tedious, nothing else. You get some bla bla at the end when you've collected enough crap and it's over. Don't waste your time. You can have more fun with Another World as I mentioned. Of course, that's an action game, but it requires the same amount of "strategy".

Clunky and spooky

The game has a nice atmosphere of mystery and you can really feel the impending doom that awaits you if you don't speed up repairing the ship. You are reminded of this fact be receiving more and more unnerving calls from other survivors. The game also reminds you of this with gradually more intense soundtrack. At the beginning you have three crew members at your disposition, usually each of them excels at one of four possible tasks and is pretty mediocre in others. You can train them to do other tasks as well, so you can specialize crewmembers in other activities. Unfortunately, what you can't train them is self-preservation behavior. The scientists will go collect that wood, on empty stomach, empty health bar and it's up to you to stop them from certain death. It wouldn't be that bad, if there was an easier way to manage those people. Some sort of a chart or an console where you could quickly glance and see what is their status. In games like Kenshi or Rimworld, where you also manage a group of people, you can click at one's portrait and find out what's wrong and quickly react to it. Here, you have to skim from left to right and check everyone individually how far from death they are. The story is told through monologues. Characters do not interact with each other, unless it's waiting in line to a stasis pod or fridge. One person can complain about the pilot, and the said pilot won't answer back or react in any way. However, the writing in those monologues is pretty solid. It’s not too long to bore you, and informative enough to tell you what are the motivations and type of a person that speaks them. There's stark difference between resignation at the beginning, and panic at the end. It's a nice game for an hour or two. It has nice graphics, which are sufficient for this kind of production. What it lacks thou are gameplay mechanics that could diversify your playthrough because so far, its mostly gathering junk and hoping that RNG won't mess up the shelter too bad

Klein - kurz - überaschend gut

Klein, weil die Installationsdatei nur um die 200MB groß ist. Kurz, weil man in ca. 2,5 Stunden mit dem Spiel durch ist. Überaschend gut, weil ich anfänglich nicht geglaubt habe, dass ich damit so viel Spass haben könnte. Ich hab's 1x durchgespielt und es wurde knapp (mehr wird nicht verraten!). Jetzt, 3 Monate danach, reizt mich ein erneuter Versuch, die gestrandete Crew zu retten. Eigentlich ist das Spiel eher was für Zwischendurch und dann alle paar Monate. Andererseits kann man das auch als Wettbewerb unter Freunden sehen: wer benötigt die wenigste Zeit, die Crew zu retten?

Das Spiel hält mich nicht

Es mag gut sein, dass ich einfach zu untalentiert bin für das Spiel, aber mich nervt es nur. Ich bin permanent am reparieren und dauerhaft eingeheizt kriege ich die Basis auch nicht. Ich kriege einfach keinen Fortschritt in der Story hin und das ist nur noch frustrierend. Ich habe das Spiel mehrfach angefangen und nun gebe ich es ganz auf und werde es mir als Let´s Play anschauen. Mal davon ab, dass ich die Beschreibung im Shop doch bisschen zu actionreich und übertrieben für das Spiel finde. Es ist schlichter als es in der Beschreibung erzählt wird. Die Atmosphäre und die dazugehörigen Effekte finde ich gut und nicht störend.

Nice, but short

Once you figure out what to do gmae provides very limited re-playability, there is some ramdomity with weather conditions, but it really doesn't add up challenge, just adds more micro management.
