Do you like exploration? Combat and gathering? Along with lots of micromanaging and base building? A snarky AI to guide you and provide a few laughs? Well then this game is for you!

You'll often find game sessions becoming much longer than you wanted as hours and hours go by while you do, just one more thing. My brother would often reference the "MORE" star wars meme because you'll always find yourself saying "I need more___". The combat can range for killing little enemies that aren't much of a threat, to me screaming and almost crying at 1am because a large crazy spider thing with huge teeth jumped at me from no where and tried to eat my face while I was just trying to build a pipe line. The base building is more of factory building, ways to move resources around, production and automation, all the while trying to produce enough power to keep it all going.

Honestly though, this game is really well made having only encounter one bug in my 170 hours and it was a minor one imo. The main story is long! In the previous mentioned time I'm at last coming up and what appears to end though I might not be the more efficient pioneer there is. This game is easily a 9/10 for me

Ok so if your expecting is to be just like SPAZ you might be let down. However I found this game to be pretty good and worth getting on sale as I did. As a matter of fact I got both of them on a good discount and was VERY happy.

Do you like games like FTL, Darkest Dungeon, Rouge Legacy, or other rouge like games? When then you will like this one! Yes it does not YET have a save button, but the Dev said he WOULD add it once he irons out bugs and gets the bot working right. Only complaint I really have is some times I feel rushed to do every thing before the next fight as the days go pretty quick but this a minor one. Just keep in mind it might take 2 hours or so to beat depending on you so until he adds save know this and not spam add save to all the bug update comment section and reviews.

One of the most fun car building sim you can find. With a few bugs, flaws that don't ruin the game as a whole. The game can hard to before you learn how to play but once you do it really fun. I really would love more cars to build as that is the most fun part (imo). They keep adding things so I cant wait to see what is added in future updates.

Love this game, so glad it came to PC. So far I have had 0 issues while streaming it for almost 3 hours, the game works great with my stream controller and with mouse and keyboard. Also if you plan on buying this game keep in mind its been remastered not remade so it wont be up to today standards or run at 60FPS but it is the game we all loved and played to death on PS2. If you are new to this game then know that blitz ball is more the enough reason to buy it.

I have played this for about three hours so far and really enjoyed it. For the $4 I got the deluxe on sale and the regular was $2. If you like dnd type games and simple games you will love this. So get it on sale or at full price and I'm sure you will enjoy your time.

Edit: Though I still enjoyed this game after 10 hours they updated causeing mine and many others to lose their save files and I'm told it was not the first time. So keep that in mind.

Let start by saying I really enjoyed this game when I got it, played over 70 hours in fact.
That being said no I would not recommend this game as of now, here is why.
-Starting with its FTP(upon realase game) that I had to PAY $20 for.
-Got two crates with my purchase but only ONE key to open them (most buy a key to open the other)
-Hackers, no surpise there but just a negitive.
-PvP is KOS fest (again not surpised) but just annoying becuase once again after loot nerfs everybody kos you to take the loot you spent two hours or more finding because they dont want to search themselfs.
-Crafting is kind of a joke, yes you can craft your own bases and store loot just to have them broke into in a matter of mintues with nothing more than an axe or crowbar (so once again people talking all your stuff rather then looting themselfs)
-No in game map as of yet (but Battle royal has one) Like I cant walk into any gas station and find a map of the area, map of the county, map of the state.
-Only FOUR guns (pistol,AR15,Shotgun, and hunting rifle)
-Map is kind of small for the amout of players (this coming from a DayZ player so maybe its just me)
-Lack of zombies making PvE servers a joke and very boring ( In a town of even 5k people there would be more, also I can buck of rounds all day and the no zombie argo which would make players more cautious and sparing with their ammo.)
-Cars either need spark plugs and batteries or are beyond repair. (So engine never goes bad or even tires?)
-Lets talk about P2W and what not, now no its not p2w YET! But with the new company awefulbreak gaming or w/e taking over I think it will be/(Just look at it this way SOE got all of us to pay the $20 to get the game then SOLD IT, meaning they have yet to make big money off of it AND payed to get it. So you tell me whats gonna happen.)
-Also let face it, it is kind of a DayZ rip off(from the basic game to inventory system with the clothing even the helmets being used as armor though dayz has more then just a motorcycle helmet.
-Lets talk about the trouble I had just gettting to play this game. After downloading and starting up I had to create an account (ugh) but w/e so after trying to it refuse to create it just kept saying to check the user agreements and what not. I checked and unchecked it 10000 times, refershed the page, tryed different browers EVERY THING. Till I had a friend create a account for me, then had trouble logging on saying my username or password was wrong even though it was right. THEN after the last update I couldn't even get the laucher to open. TRYED A million things and a bunch of suggections till one worked.


Only pros are that it is fun with some friends ONCE you all get gear and guns.
Battle royal is really the best part and those are super hard to win favoring players who have friends to group up with. Meaning I have played maybe 50 or more and yet to win one. Came 3rd, 4th or 5th many times but I almost always end up getting owned by a group.

--All in all I WOULD NOT spend a dime on this if I were you. If you have waited this long just wait till it's really F2P and figure it out if it would be worth playing and spending money on then.

Got this on sale for like .50 or some thing like that but it is worth the full price really.
Pros
-Kovac rules area pretty cool( you will see)
-Cheap fun with a friend
-Has a simple skill tree
-Fun concept almsot like this is some kind of death game(Was one of my first thoughts)
-Cool making your own weapons and armor
-When bored you can always resort to duels

Cons
-Only two player multi player
-I don't always like the safe house idea(You have to open it which set off an alarm bring tons of zombies right to YOU, not the sounnd) so if you come to a new island and wnat to stop you have to get to said safe house
-Food can be scarce between two people, even more so if you don't have the guy who can see animals on the map
-I DO NOT like the shared screen multi players, if I want to go one way and he want to go another we should be able to. Making it super hard to kite zombies unless you guys are on the same page.

Even with some of it downfalls this is a pretty good game and fun to play with a friend.

One of the best zombie games I have played. Despite some short comings (which they are still working on) this game is just fanstastic!

Pros
Realism without going over the top like some zombie games.
Combat is really enjoyable once you get the hang of it.
Why more fun with friends and can PVP.
Can play sandox and customize from rather easy zombies to "true zombies" as they call it.
Can do cool stuff like use a rope (or make one from sheet) to climb out a window if the house gets flooded with zombies.
One of the best inventory system ever. (IMO) MIght take a bit getting used to but just make sense in terms of reaslism.

Cons
Becoming sick from zombie bite or sratch can be OP at times (like after 25 days and like 700 zombie kills one just scratches me and its game over.) but as I pointed out you can changed that in sandbox if you dont like it.
Missing stuff like cars (imo)
Lack of other things to do such as more crafting like modding weapons more then just nailed bat and sawed off.
Lack of firearm types (only pistol, shutgun, and varrmint rifle at the moment) I would like to see a couple types of each and even assault rifles SMGs, sniper rifles, you know.
No in game map (like I cant find a map of my local area map at every gas station or store) but you can find one online.

Most of the stuff in Cons are all stuff that very well will be fixed by full release, but as of now they are cons.

All in all I give this a 8 out of 10 which is damn good considering its still "early access".

After playing about 15 hours of this game with almost no problem, I have had a blast. Doesn't stand up to the hype and most of my friends had tons of issues trying to just lauch and stay in the game but that being said once you can it can be a lot of fun.
Nothing really stand out other than the hacking and the skill trees. Has a bunch of mini game, a few of which are real fun and once I can play with friends it should be even better.
