The Ancients

To Early Access

Please remeber that I reviewing early acces and I had only played Sandbox. Game is BORING. Map is dull flat teritory on which you have 7 types of features giving you wood; vegetables; mushrooms (risk of poisining); flint; water; cave - for shelter; and impasable mountains. You just walking around constanly clicking on icon of resource to gather it. But you have only 2 action points. So gameplay looks like this: Move on spot; click resource; click end of turn; click resource until it will deplayed or you will run of action points, and.. end of turn. From time to time you will meet animals which you are hunting just as you gather other resources. Only difference Icon looks different. Keep clicking it until deplaying of action points or death either of animal or your hunting party. Soemtimes some event will pop up, sometimes you will find cave or hex circled by mountins and you can set up camp from which you can gather resources like in game Thea. There is posibility of crafting and building structures but on begining of the game they are locked. Ooo also you are wiating for research points but first discoveries don`t change much in gameplay -early ones giveyou some passive bonuses or another hunting party (which is braking the game as rotating between 2 teams is nightmare, and becouse of some reason when you have two grups they can`t access randomly some hexes on the map). What I`m trying to say is that whole gameplay is clicking icon of gathering resources clicking end of turn or traveling thru ugly, boring map with speed of 2 spaces Max. Maybe later they will give some content but for now playing this is in my opinion waste of time. I asked for refund. I think that for now it is simply not worth of money they ask. Maybe later in the game it`s getting more interesting but you have go thru begining of the gameplay. And I couldn`t force myself to do that.
