My Thoughts
I put roughly 3-4 hours into the game with my sister and that was all I needed to see that the game wasn’t for me. I’m very particular about how I’m able to spend my gaming time, so it was already fighting against (my personal dislike of) the art style, the game play loop of the hook/scavenge mechanic, etc. A big aspect of it is also the building/decor stuff, which isn’t my cup of tea.
HOWEVER! The game art is quirky & fun. If you’re big into a more relaxed survival experience- and you’re a lover of base (well, raft) building & decor crafting- this is the perfect game play loop for you!
I’ll give it a YAY overall. (But still not my cup of tea).
