Much easier than other rocket building games. Tutorial is easy to follow and isn't too long, then you're on your way. There is only two parts to the rockets though, upper stage and booster, they should definitely consider adding more, it's a bit TOO simple. Mini games can be pretty tedious; you can skip them but you don't get the bonus if you do skip them.

Your rocket can fail at any point of the launch, whether straight from take off, just before space, or upon entry. It tells you the chance of this happening, and the chance of a failure can be increased by bad weather. You can choose to schedule the launch for another day with better weather or risk it anyway.

The space race is the core mechanic of this game, you have to make sacrifices and make tough decisions to progress well. For example, I had to sacrifice a moon orbiting to get first man in space to win the era or make a strong base to make my future launches more reliable and win in the long run.

Dying Light is a personal favourite of mine. The story, while sometimes predictable, is very good with excellent voice acting. The weapons are great with many different variations and it feels great to hack the heads off zombies with some of them. You can get a GRAPPLING HOOK, which makes roof tops very fun. If your weapon breaks or you get low on health, you can parkour away. Dying Light has a major emphasis on parkour and it'll help you escape situations you may find yourself in.

The night-time shift is one of the most interesting mechanics in a game that I can think of. When the sun sets the enemies become super hostile and special infected roam around. Sprinting and parkouring through a very dark city with a horde on your tail and desperately looking for a place of safety is so tense and never really gets old.

Not to mention it also has coop, you can play your campaign cooperatively with a friend or stranger. People can hop in and out of your game (if you want them to).

Its worth full price but is a steal on sale.

My grandfather plays this and got me in to it while I was growing up. Its good if you like driving and/or simulators. Long drives across Europe, setting up your own haulage company and hiring staff, buying and customising your trucks, it has all of it. Graphics are great. You can add your own music or listen to online radio stations too.

But the best thing of all is that it has a steam workshop so you can mod the hell out of it. There are so many mods from graphic mods, accessories to pimp out your truck, mods to add Google maps as your satnav, add real companies, and many more. Well worth checking out.

Although the game is single player, there is even a mod to make the game multiplayer.

Its like DOOM but open-world and much more fun! Lots of weapons and gadgets, lots of enemies, lots of mayhem. Worth buying on sale.

Early Access Review
I didn't buy it at first because it had no matchmaking and I don't have anyone that plays it. After about a year on my wishlist I saw it on sale with matchmaking and had to get it. I'm glad I did. I see people saying Rundown 005 is bad, but I am enjoying it. I have only just bought the game so I started playing during 005. I have nothing to compare it to cos I haven't played 001-004.

You will die, you will have to restart again and again. I would normally get frustrated at having to do that and probably quit, but this game kept me coming back and trying again and with each death I became more determined. The game is totally unforgiving. It requires teamwork and coordination. If you can't work as a team and think you're an FPS hero, this game isn't for you and you will never win. If you like stealth, resource management, and tense gameplay, give it a try.

There is always people willing to show you the ropes in the GTFO discord server and join your game. I've not met any arrogant a$$holes yet, everyone has been kind, patient and helpful. Good game, good community. I look forward to how the game develops in future and am curious about what direction it will go.

The only negative is that the devs seem to be hooked on the idea of having 'the hardest game on Steam' title and it seems a bit forced. There are harder games out there, but you can tell that the devs want it to be the hardest, where its almost impossible to beat the whole rundown. They should ease up on that and make more of a story to the game because its the atmosphere that makes this game - the suspense, and having to rely on your team as much as they have to rely on you. The difficulty doesn't make the game, as much as they want it to. The difficulty makes people curious about the game, but it isn't enough to make people stay long-term.

The story is all a bit confusing. Its more of a 'Go to A, to get an item, and take it to B.', I have no idea what the item is, or where it's been or where its going to, or why... All I know is that I need to get it. I have no idea why I'm a prisoner, and if at all I can ever get out. An actual story would take this from being a good game, to a great game. Right now its just a bunch of random objectives.

This game is long for these type of games. Which is a good thing. Great cast, voice acting, and story. Every decision matters. Looking forward to the next one.

Campaign is great, as with all Battlefields. The graphics and gameplay were so good for it's time and still looks good now. The price is definitely on the high side for a 10 year old game with dead multiplayer. If you manage to get it on sale its well worth it. You could also get it for free on EA Play.

We are in an age where microtransactions are in almost all games, where single player is being pushed out. These Sony exclusives are proving that gamers want more than a boring run-n-gun game. The graphics are perfect, its very well optimised, the story and voice acting is superb. I love every release by Quantic Dream but this is the best yet.

If you like Telltale games then you'll probably like this too. I bought it on Epic a year ago and just bought it again to have it on Steam.

The game is an exciting, and deep look in to what technology has made of us and what could be in the near-future. It would be unfair to compare it to other video games, I have never really played anything like it. Its a game that doesn't shy away from discussing controversial topics and not by telling you about it but with making you live in it and see it first hand, it's a philosophical game that will make you think about everything you know.

I recommend playing on Experienced difficulty to feel better engaged. This makes sure you can't change your decision or go to a last checkpoint. It also forces you to keep playing even if you kill a character off.

Every decision counts.

Its ok, I just can't play it for long periods or I end up bored of it. There wasn't anything that kept me engaged with it really.

A bit dull and empty at the moment but could do well in future. A cool concept, always wanted a game like this to be released. Will be keeping an eye on it.
