SCUM has many moving parts, mechanics-wise, and a lot of shit that the developers are constantly working to refine & improve. There's a lot of basic bushcraft in the game- reliance and emphasis on the skills needed to handle food, water sourcing, shelter, and fire craft. There's a detailed wound & illness system, an incredibly complex setup for metabolism (including vitamins and minerals), and many other details that make this one of the most realistic survival titles.

The environment is beautiful, and the survival aspects scratch my “surviving by the skin of my teeth” itch. The sheer amount of info packed into the crafting & metabolism menus is mind-boggling. I watched a video on the Steam page about how archery developed, and I felt like I was watching a fucking documentary on the History channel; it was that detailed.

However, be prepared for a lot of crudeness - like the need to shit & piss. And penises that can be covered by specially made ‘Willy Warmers’. Overall though, I love it and need to write a detailed review to gush and post inappropriate pictures.
