In this survival game you control a group of civilian survivors during wartime. During the day, your survivors have to stay inside the shelter because of possible sniper fire. This allows you to maintain their hunger, sleep, illnesses and wounds. At night you have to decide which of your survivors gets to sleep at night, which of them has to guard the place and which of them will be tonight's scavenger. Sometimes locations become inaccessible, and you end up having to choose locations you haven't visited before. At these locations you may just find loot that you can use, but sometimes you will also find other NPCs to trade with, or a group of armed thugs that will simply shoot you on sight. Sometimes you will find harmless people that put you up to the decision of stealing items from them that they need to survive, or to survive another day without food. Sometimes you are put up to the decision to kill someone, or to be killed instead. These choices have a short-term and a long-term impact on your characters. In the short-term, your characters may get depressed, and so may you, and in the long-term it determines the ending of the game you will get after the war ends.

This strategy survival game is like none other as it lets you experience the civilian survival during wartime and as it lets you reflect on the (un)ethical choices you have to take to survive. I'd certainly recommend you to try this out.

I got boots to put the floor on fire, as I kept rolling to evade the enemies while they burn.
I got infinity jump to juggle myself in the air while moving around stategically to have enemies cast spells and throw bombs on each other.
I got a fire carpet to avoid nasty pits and spikes.
I thought I was overpowered, until I found a wheel of misfortune that led to mighty feet stampeding my character.

10/10, I would die again.

Early Access Review
Factorio is a co-operative multiplayer game where you progressively shift towards more industrialisation from the artisan process crafting of items by hand. However, with this industrialisation comes a great cost, the aliens from the extreme left-wing environmentalist party believe that the pollution caused by your factories lead to global warming. Extremist as they are, they will occasionally start to attack in an attempt to break down your factories. Keep these aliens at their place by building a great wall with sufficient lasers that consume more power than green energy could ever provide you with. Little do these aliens know that their ideas of the world is absurd. Spend your science in R&D for a more thriving and modernised industry. Your goal is to build a large-scale mass production bigger than that of China together with your friends.
