This War of Mine

I thought this game is like undertale , which you dont have to kill enemy at all . if you want to be pacificist , you can trade or make tools or improve home by yourself , you can enjoy game like sim ant or sim city . but if you got bored of it , you can kill , and its quite thrilling for you got only 1 life on this game , like a real human . although its so much fun to build stuff by self or fight against soldier or bandit , if you complete both pacificist or genocide run , there aint much thing left to do , because there is not much of errand or story on this game , so , so far as i know , it gets repetitive after completed both pacificist or genocide run .. well but this game is addictive and so fun , i couldnt stop playing this game for few days , so , definitely worth buying for even non- discount price .

Buy this game in the complete edition it is worth the money they are asking for it. It will hit you hard on an emotional level so be prepared to face that, when you start getting into this game. The stories are amazing, the graphics are good, the music is great gameplay and interface are well done. Get this game but do not expect a fun game, expect a hell of a ride of emotions.

I own this game on Steam but bought it here a second time as the devs offered to support the Red Cross with the earnings. The game is pretty good. Most things are randomised wich makes for high replayability but also dampers with the difficulty. If you are into Survival Games and can grind your teeth around some setbacks and failure, give it a try!

When I first saw this title, I was browsing in GoG for some downtime entertainment. I recalled seeing the title and it hit me once again that this was more then the usual action/war-theme game. At first it looked "dark" and I left it at that. After I made the purchased, I actually left it alone for over a month--I did not want to touch it. I actually thought it has moral education value on life, liberty, and being grateful. All that was accomplished after surviving two 80 days, and a short-lived 20 days experiences. Before I continue, I want to express that if one seeks the usual action genre wrapped in the disguise of a survival theme. This isn't that kind of "game". It is an experience that when played through an 80 days, moderate crime/violence level, a moderate winter that comes late and last moderately long survival experience will lead you to appreciate the depth and work put in by 11 Bit Studios. They did their work, and the message was felt--it hurts. It hurts that although I had a grasp of both game mechanics (combat and resource management, latter comprise of both physical and psychoemotional aspect), there is simply no winning like our typical war game. My group did survive since it was not my first rodeo with an 80 day campaign (look at that, using that word campaign reminded how Call Of Duty'ed out I am). In the end, they all survived, but just not what one would expect after getting into minimal confrontations that resulted in the use of fatal force, stealing from the defenseless, neglecting needs of neighbors, and holding onto resource beyond survival needs. If it has to be viewed as a game, then a hard game I will call it; however, if it is approached as an experience, it will open up your eyes. I will leave it at that. The old saying that "pain is unavoidable, but suffering, is optional" may helped me to over come the first week. After I came across people asking for help; yet, I barely had enough resource to help my own group. Then and there, it hit me: it wasn't about my group, my goals, and I; rather, it was about surviving it all, together. I consider myself as a humble person, who jokes and laughs, and yes, like Call of Duty style games (once in a while, finished COD MW 1 and 2, sad that Soap died). This War of Mine had more to offer then what meets the eye. As a pure game, the graphic depiction of 256 shades of grey and fine guitar, and often classical music we can recall (if one was build to enjoy), along with its thrills in stealth combat element that made it is a complete package. See it differently though as a directable graphic novel, where fate of each character chosen and decisions made for them may have us felt morally responsible for how they turned out--something politicians need to play before they plunge people and nations in war. In anyway, give this an honest try. Select a 20 day experience and do your best. Once the basic elements are understood, go for the 80 days and give it a second go.

After trying to play this game for a while, this game brings me to the war atmosphere that very sad and depressing and then my imagination start to fly to the war zone and change my mind about what war as it was.
