I thoroughly enjoyed this game. I like stealth games and find side-scrollers relaxing. If you appreciate side-scrollers then you should play this game just so you can measure other side-scrollers against it. You can feel that it was properly play-tested and well-designed. Also, it's 20 hours of very solid fun.

If you like digging games then this is a good one :)

I was 10 hours into a game and had spent most of my resources towards building up a badass space fleet. Then one of my planet's starts a slave revolt, then suddenly 3 other planets join them and the game offers to go to war with them. Sure, why not? I owned those planets and they're broke so what could they possibly throw against my fleet?
Suddenly, those broke planets have a fleet four times the size of the one I spent half a century building. They just WISHED it into existence. Just like all those real life rebellions on Earth where some people were disgruntled so they walked down to the beach and threw together a $10 billion aircraft carrier on the weekend.
Let me be clear, I LIKE random events. I love Rimworld and Dwarf Fortress. But random events are only fun if you can use your judgement to react to them. Screw this stupid cheating game.

Yeah, it's pretty good I guess.

I wanted to like this game. I really enjoyed games like Limbo, Inside and Gris. This had a similar feel and I loved the non-communication multiplayer. It's just that Journey is pretty much just pushing forward on a joystick more than half the time. You walk really slow, the levels are bordering on monochromatic and the game is just a bit too monotonous.

Very soothing. Like standing at a window and watching the snow fall.

Monkey Money? Seriously this game tries to sell you in-game money for REAL money. I had no idea Bloons did this crap and it disgusts me.

It scratches an itch. Like when you want to start a fresh map of Factorio but lose interest when you remember all the oil-plumbing necessary to get to plastics. Shapez and Mindustry are both good when you feel like that.

This is so much fun! The physics and control of the monster is different from anything I've ever played and the game is worth buying just to experience that. It took me 16 very enjoyable hours to finish it. Any sale price is a definite bargain. I paid full price for it and feel like it was exactly the fair price for what I got. I have no complaints.

I don't think I've died the same way twice yet and I have died a LOT. Do you like Falling Sands games? Do you enjoy rogue-likes? Why aren't you already playing this?
