It's wicked fun!

This game shouldn't be dismissed as another streamerbait rage game because it's mechanically more interesting than that. There are challenging sections, but many of these are basically self-imposed.

The crux of the game is learning how to walk, which is very satisfying once you get the hang of it. Depending on your goals, the game can feel like a genuine nature hike, with most of your focus being on learning the environment and figuring out what path to take.

Highly recommend!

I only played this game for about 14 hours and I found myself entranced for all 14 of those hours. The gameplay loop is very satisfying, the presentation is very endearing, and I found myself surprisingly impacted by some of the writing in this game. I played it quickly and obsessively, making the mad dash that compromises the main gameplay loop mirror my overall experience with the game.

I highly recommend picking it up. It's great for if you're in-between games or want something to hyperfocus on for a bit.

This is pure first person platforming, reminiscent of old source parkour servers. Very fun with a pinch of spooky.

I still haven't beaten it by the time of this review, but it's easily a game I see myself repeatedly returning to for the challenge.

A fairly solid nu-arena shooter. While I would recommend other games if you were just getting into the Postal Series or the recent wave of Boomer-Shooter inspired FPS games, this is a very good blend of both if you're already a fan.

This game is surprisingly addicting. I enjoyed the Falling Sand games when I was younger, so it makes sense that I gravitated towards this game. Even though I do think the game leans a bit too heavily on RNG in terms of perks and wands, I find myself repeatedly coming back for the physics and the excitement of diving deeper into the game. Check it out, it's enjoyable.

This game probably has the best writing I've seen in a game in a long, long time. I recommend playing it, but go in blind and avoid save scumming.

This is not a bad game. Even though I clicked "don't recommend," it's a very light "don't recommend." If you look up videos of gameplay, you'll be able to decide pretty quickly how much you'll like it. The game plays how it looks.

My issues with this game are basically small gripes that turned into major annoyances as I played through. I found that the movement and aiming controls could be very finicky. Levels that focus on platforming showcase the issues with movement, specifically the awkward transitions from rolling to standing. There were also multiple times where I've kicked an object and tried to shoot it as it flew into a group of enemies only for my character to be shooting the floor because I had to wait for the kicking animation to finish. In a game that scores you on your time and where you may need to restart to make sure you get a better score, having unskippable cutscenes where I have to mash the B button to get through dialogue is incredibly obnoxious.

The game overall is just okay. I don't think I was particularly blown away by anything, though having boxes that crumple slightly when you jump on them is a really nice touch that I'm glad they put in. The game is also not that long; the story is under 10 hours long, which I believe is fair for the price. But ultimately, I don't really consider this to be a great game and the gripes above lead me to say that I didn't really enjoy my time with it.

This game is a precious bundle of joy.

Better than PUBG so far. I've rarely felt like I was completely screwed over on weapon pick ups, the character customization in terms of facial structure is surprisingly well done, and I loved the mobility options like hang gliding, snowboarding, ziplining, and riding gondolas.

If I were to give a few complaints, it would be that I'm really not a fan that they decided to have a fortnite style pass you pay for while they're still in early access. I also think the endgame tends to be a bit annoying as the survivors have to climb a helicopter, of which there's four seats available, but you will almost always get sniped off the ladder, even if there's room for everyone.

- Starts each game with a gun game (that is optional and has a safe room with no shooting)
- The network so far has been way better than PUBG, with only minor lag here and there for me.
- Gameplay has a nice, fast pace to it.
- The shooting feels decent, it's not the most impactful but it's far from bad.
- Has a gun range with targets and a wall that shows your recoil
- Looks gorgeous

This game is well on it's way to being the best Battle Royale game and I look forward to supporting it as it grows. As long as people continue to play and the devs don't pull an Xaviant or Bluehole, this game has a bright future ahead.
