DO NOT LISTEN TO PEOPLE SAYING ITS BAD. This game is amazing in both art and gameplay, it encourages exploration but I think people are playing it wrong. One big complaint is the karma system and how it forces you to grind, it doesn't. Its simply a way of encouraging survival because as long as you don't die (which yes I know is kind of a stupid thing to say to a new player) you will never need to farm karma except for some off cases. Now even if you do die you can still comeback because you might only be one or two karma down. If you go lower than that, the karma system (while maybe annoying) encourages you to get better at the game by surviving in the area. Once you understand basic mechanics 70% of the areas wont be a challenge (except maybe: Farm Arrays, The Rot) but these areas have some issues like reindeer being stupid and pll and dll sometimes placing themselves in some "unfortunate" spots. If you're really struggling with the game honestly just look up a guide or a map, and if that doesn't help then idek. (Oh yea you are never required to go through farm arrays and the rot and there are ways around them. Unless you get them for an expedition goal and in that case uhh I guess at least farm arrays isn't as bad as the rot.)

Good game and 10/10 :)
