Expect a challenge

If you are into to an uphill battle for survival that only gets rougher as you go, this game might be for you. Take it slow, and get used to all the things that are trying to kill you (including yourself.). Then if it seems to be too easy, go through Maxwell's Teleportato to initiate your first "challenge" - be warned though... You may only survive a few seconds at first as you freeze to death or get stomped out by a three story tall deerclops that follows you throughout the land. It's a macabre story full of death, starvation, and insanity with you as the puppet. Or if that's all too much to read. Basically it's a 2.5D survival game vaguely comparable to Minecraft. The biggest differences are that it's less about the creativity and interactivity, and more about the strategy and survival.

Addictive and excellent

I have spent a lot of time exploring and leraning how to play this game. When you start, don't expect to stop playing before a few hours later, you will always want to collect a couple more things, build one more thing... The game is very difficult and unforgiving, so expect frustration and starting over and over again. Strangely, this is what makes the game so long-lasting. You learn and then, next time, you are prepared. And then you die by some other stupid mistake. The graphic style is very much to my liking, too, cartoony, weird and funny.

Tim Burton's Minecraft

This game is about what you would get if you handed the reins of Minecraft to Tim Burton. Well, minus the constant digging and the blockiness. Maybe it's because I haven't managed to survive for more than a couple of weeks but I can't see how this game can get boring or samey at all, although the initial search for supplies of any kind (aside from wood and grass) CAN get a bit annoying I guess. I would also say that one of the game's biggest selling points is that they tell you almost nothing when you start, leaving you to figure out what needs to be done and when, and I STILL don't fully understand the health/sanity/hunger meters you're given. All I know is that I've been hooked on this since I bought it in a Steam Sale about 4 months ago, to the point where I even went and bought it again the moment it was released for PS Vita.

A real challenge

Incredible game for people who likes to think and explore on their own, don't expect to be guided or even a few instructions on how to start, you awake at the forest and have no idea what you have to do, also, dont even try it if you dont accept when you die, you'll die, lots of times Expect to lose everything you have worked so hard to get during a few weeks in just a second, if after that you try again because you've learned something new on how to stay alive, this is your game. I'm not so happy because I was looking for a game to play for half an hour from time to time, but I can't stop exploring and building things now... be warned!

Money well spent

A nice little survival game. Many ways do die before you figure out how to survive. And when you have figured it out - something new will most likely get you killed.
