Great idle game. Or is it an anti-idle game? Whatever. Either way I'm not sure there's another game like this one. There's a lot of humor & craziness and seemingly endless progression. Certainly can't beat it in a week or even a month. You'll probably be busy for years to be honest. Bottom line? I love the game. Plus I love/hate the developer (you'll understand if you ever get to the troll challenges).

Absolutely an awesome game. I built the the ultimate magnum opus and completed just about everything in the game. Loved every minute and think the game was worth every dollar.

Big world with lots of things to do. Lots of vehicles, weapons, places, things. So many little things to discover too. I enjoy this game immensely. Encourage anyone who likes open world gaming to check it out.

I've spent an fair amount of time in the game thus far. I've actually enjoyed it. At first it was kinda chaotic trying to find a decent server that didn't brutally destroy me right out of the gate. But there's enough quiet servers that you can join and learn your way around on. Once you know how to survive, the game can get interesting. Of course interesting can be violent if you are a diehard PVP gamer, or interesting can be cooperative & productive if you like working with other players. Altogether the game is summed up by one word: survival. Its up to you how you want to go about it accomplishing that.

Early on you should aim to get a hunting bow & a hatchet together, grab some food, craft a sleeping bag, and build a shelter somewhere safe. From there you can learn your way around, look for buildings, supply crates, resourceful areas, basically take your chances finding better equipment & getting stocked up. Sometimes other survivors raid your shelters. You may have to decide wether to be more portable or to try to heavily reinforce your shelter and hold your ground. But its all truly up to you. There's a big, growing, evolving world to enjoy. You can spend a lot of time finding that perfect place to survive.

The game itself is still early in development. Its known to have bugs, occaisionally crash, sometimes even glitch in some places and kick you from the game (you can rejoin though). But its clear that the developers have a grand vision and the ambition to continue to improve & evolve their product towards that vision. With their native support for Linux, this game has real potential to become one of the ushers of a new era of Linux based gaming. I'm actually looking forward to seeing, first-hand, the evolution of Rust because it could potentially redefine what a survial game really is. In this age of Battlefield's, Moba's, Zombies, and RPG's this could be the flagship game for the outdoor survival genre.
