Been playing this for a while on and off since Early access. It got updated quite a lot in the meantime. It was a good, relaxing yet still somewhat challenging game when you want to perfect score. With the updates, it became even more smooth and added quite a bit of depth. You can do challenges, puzzles and also just sandbox building. The visuals and soundeffects are quite good. I generally play this game when I need to relax a bit, maybe calm down after a hard day at work. It really helps me a lot. It got this kind of "let me just squeeze one more point out of this" vibe, yet you also can just build away if you want to create something beautiful. Discovering new merges is also quite fun. A high score with other players also is a lot of fun. I personally would recommend this game.
I am not big into board games but picked this up on a sale. I like birds, so thats another plus. After a while I started playing and what can I say? The rules are easy to learn but the game is hard to master. Still, its very relaxing to just sit there, play some games while relaxing for the evening before bed and just get both a bit of challenge but also some bird knowledge. I adore birds. So a very suprising game. (Also picked it up for Mobile, very nice game for a lunch break or if you need to wait somewhere) Kudos to the developers, I think the expansions bring cool new stuff in. :)
I preorderd this game, but was a bit sceptical since we didnt get to see too much gameplay trailers before release. I have to say: Coming from theHunter (classic and CotW) this game absolutely delivers. The maps feel alive, buzzling with animal variety. The gameplay is quite rich, hunting is fun. Although animals are skitty, you dont feel like its unnecessary hard. I love to be able to play a hunting game on my favorite DRM-Free platform. Thank you, developers! Only critique as of now (20th of August): Its very hard to find downed animals, espcially ducks sometimes in the foliage. In my opinion, a bit TOO hard, even with hunter sense. Two possible solutions: A fetching dog or some markers of downed area (which you could switch on and off as per your preference.) Otherwise, very well done!
Game might be great, but gog does not recieve any of the newer updates. This shows how paying customers are treated aside from the "big boy STEAM" platform. Do youself a favor and do not buy this anywhere, until they start actually treating their customers fairly.
Unfortunately, this game did not deliver. Not content wise, nono. This game has an awesome potential. But it is destroyed by bugs. - Airplanes wont launch their payload (But loose it anyway) - AI cant handle ASW (4 Destroyer against 2 Subs, Subs win without casualty.) But if I am the Sub Commander, the enemy develops ESP all of a sudden. - Difficulty even on Easy just mind boggling. US: Here are 3 Carriers dispersed around the Pacific. But wait! Enemy has 5 Carriers on there way to Midway just a few days after Pearl Harbor! Managed to scrap your forces together to fight them? To bad for the Aleutians and Alaska. You just lost the war, admiral. And so on and on and on. This is really sad, I was looking forward to this.
