Absolutely love this game. Its pretty complicated, but thats what makes it fun.

To busy to play a game, need the sense of satisfaction for accomplishing* something, antsy for that next drip of dopamine? Then this is the next idle game for you.

Cute aesthetic, lots of crops, bots and animals to add to your farm.
Varied map styles which add replay to making new farms in different configurations.

Would like to see more details on thinks like bees as its pretty obtuse.
Expanded tool tips in general
Ability to move things a screens width over.
Cancel building without loss of materials.

I received it as a gift a few nights ago. It's fantastic. It viscerally captures the experience of being a starcraft/starship troopers boots on the ground or being terminated by robots.

The maps are different the environments fun to traverse. The itemization and controls are fantastic.

Coming back from going AFK and having all my buddies standing around emoting at me waiting for a hug or a fist bump....
- it's just fun and funny.

Get it

Reviewing the wiki there is a faction "The Illuminate" cant wait to face them.

Wishlist:
Clan or squad ladders with unique item rewards
More ways to move around buggies, quads, dirt bikes, boats, tanks, etc.

The spider the terrible scary spider.
Enjoyable puzzles, unique art style, game world leaving me wanting to know more about the world.

First and foremost the visual flashes are very intense and irritating.
The puzzles are not interesting and the narrative leaves a lot to be desired. I enjoy this style of game, but this didn't click for me.

Played on my Steamdeck, enjoyed the narrative. The Free mode has the good content, the DLC I am working through, but its more therapeutic thus far and is absent of any of the twist theme from the main game. Just wholesome DLC.

Solid game with Great platforming. Plays great on the steam deck after the be setup.

For some reason has Ubisoft connect - completely uncessary and it's tedious to log into on the deck.(This is a guide in the steam community to bypass it, I have tried it yet)

Sadden to learn it has no achievements, how am I supposed to determine my self worth with out a progress bar to quantify my time being productively unproductive.

As soon as I got into the game and realized I could jump and attack simultaneously I knew my build was jump attack.

No ranged weapons, no spells, no dexterity, no intellect unless it allowed me to use a bigger weapon for jump attack.

Everything into stamina and only what I had to into my vitality to survive one hit.

It took forever to kill Melina. But I finally got her staggered the hell out of her.
Then I discovered I was way under level and geared.
I owe my victory to jump attack.

Praise Jump Attack

An ARPG but I get to be a shaman. 10/10 no notes

Due to laws and health reasons I don't do hard drugs. I do however indulge heavily in the survivors genre.

The mining component is interesting.
The levels and baddies are cool.
Guns at first glance are good.

(Inevitable but incoming)
But

The power fantasy thus far is pretty meh.

Never really hit that zomg I'm a survivor god moment before death destroys you.

I understand mechanically that is not the end state for this game and it has more in like with Yet another zombie survivor than it does OG Vampire Survivors.

That said it is lacking the core mechanics that game gives you. Like the ability to aim some abilities.

Recommendations to make it better:
Refresh level up rewards and more mechanically interesting upgrade options not just %X to Y.

I.e. more stun, slow, Hazzard weapon variants.

Consider allowing aim controls for some weapons. Because often kiting a mob of enemies while mining leaves you shooting the wall.


Perhaps I just haven't got there yet. Will I keep playing yes.
I'll update if Im wrong or continue to feel the same way.
