Kenshi
Description
Kenshi is an open world, squad based sandbox RPG set in a brutal sword-punk wasteland. Gameplay is open-ended rather than a linear story, so you can play as a settler, a trader, a thief, a rebel, a warlord, an adventurer, a farmer, a slave... or just food for the cannibals.

Description
Kenshi is an open world, squad based sandbox RPG set in a brutal sword-punk wasteland. Gameplay is open-ended rather than a linear story, so you can play as a settler, a trader, a thief, a rebel, a warlord, an adventurer, a farmer, a slave... or just food for the cannibals.

But first things first, you need to survive. Train your men up from puny victims to master warriors, carry your wounded squad mates to safety and get them all home alive. You are not the chosen one, you’re not great and powerful, you don’t have more ‘hitpoints’ than everyone else and you are not special. Unless you work for it.
  • Customise a solo character or a whole squad and train them from puny victims to master warriors
  • Survive in an unrelenting world of slavers, cannibals, wild beasts and famine. Nowhere is safe.
  • Build your own fortress, research technologies, craft your own gear and wage war with other factions
  • Explore and scavenge the uncharted lands of one of the largest single player open world maps to date
  • Absolutely no level-scaling. The world does not level up along with you and the game won't hold your hand.

Great game they ruined on purpose

This one is a half finished game they stole from me full of glitches (they put into the game on purpose) and to get the other half of the game you have to download a bunch of bugged "mods" which were supposed to be part of the original game. Horrible people ruined one of my favorite games and there is no other game that is of similar design. I can't even enjoy being alone playing a single player game without being harrassed by theft, rape in my entertainment, and all sorts of things too many to list.

Still very early build

Reviewed 6th of August 2016 First thing is that this game is a point and click RPG. That means you do not use the "WASD" keys to move instead you click on the screen (like classic RPGs), thought I'd mention that since the screen shots make it look more like Witcher 3 type game play. This is not a issue I have with the game just letting people know. At this stage of development I wouldn't recommend this game for the price. Here are a few things I ran into within 10 mins of starting the game: The AI doesn't seem to be ready for even a beta (maybe an alpha build). Enemy AI followed me for about 2 mins before I gave up and just got knocked out. Either their agro range is huge or they follow until you loose or win the fight. Town guards just watched me get beat down and only when I was knocked out did they attack the bandits who attacked me. The world is very barren, apart from the starting town and the odd hut, that's all I saw while running around there was basically nothing else (an odd mining node or two). Controls felt very clunky. You can't angle the camera up to look at the night sky or up a hill as it appears to lock at 90 degrees to the ground (although you can look down). Clicking on objects was a bit hit or miss, with the detection box on objects seemly not matching the models, e.g. clicking on a human only works if you click the chest but not the hands or feet. The main issue I had with the game is that it's very empty and has no direction or purpose. A sandbox game is all well and good (I loved Mountain Blade) but without anything to do in it but look at your stats go up from running, it gets boring fast. Game has promise but not worth the asking price at the time of writing this review.

Buyer beware

Substantial game breaking bugs that the devs refuse to change. Terrible attitude from the devs and the moderators. Ok ALPHA state start, this is in no way ready for even a beta state game. including but not limited to; game crashes. annoying chases that should not be in game even after you break los and have been out of sight for over 1 min you will be attacked by the same characters. Landscape errors, pathing breaks, characters just stop in mid action. there are several more issues and you should honestly look over the bug reports .. and unfortunate statements from the devs that they are not going to address over half the bugs currently in game.
