crafting and totems, which can help you to finish the game.

It requires patience and focus, but you will find joy in your journey.

Now, be brave! Your destiny awaits you!
Challenge yourself, in a brand new game experience in another world!

Ratings and reviews

I love this game. Really challenging. You'll die a lot as you get the hang of things, but it gets easier with experience. Trees and bushes regrow after a few weeks, animals after a few days, so try to survive just on wooden weapons and leather/cloth armour until you can farm the first few areas comfortably and have plenty of resources. It gets easier as your skills increase and you find spells. Unidentified items seem to have a good chance to be cursed, so be careful or don't bother.

Was ready to give it 5 stars. It's actually pretty great. It doesn't push ads or try and force you you spend in game (although I did as they definitely deserve something for their efforts). It can be frustrating at first but then dying become repeatedly becomes part of the joy of it. When you get past a certain point you start to become a bit more resilient and can provide yourself with most things you need so keep at it until you get the ruins level 2 done. HOWEVER. It does give unwinable scenarios. From other peoples complaints it seems to be the same thing every time. Machine parts. They dont spawn anywhere and you cant craft them so when they are gone, they are gone. If you have used them to upgrade your benches (pretty much a requirement to progress) you can no longer complete a later mission. This I discovered after 216 days and spending all my gems. I now cant finish and will either have to start again of give up. Its a good game but not worth the grind to get back to where I am now. So down to a 1 star it goes until they fix this issue.

The game is nice, but the easy mode isn't easy, it's so hard to stay alive even if you get and upgrade everything. Over 3 monsters always spam together and start hitting you at some point, and when you decide to sleep to get some HP, a monster attacks, you wake up and die, there's no option to revive watching an ad or something like that, just using tokens that you buy or get from achievements.. You lose everything and start again. that's why unfortunately I had to uninstall... it kills the fun.
