Wildermyth is an extremely charming, unique game with solid game mechanics, lovely dialogue and lots of random events with decisions that almost make every session feel like a D&D campaign. I don't have anything negative to say. I love this game.

I have rarely enjoyed any sort of survival or crafting game, but I have been having a great time with Valheim. The world so far is interesting to explore and I actually like the crafting system, from harvesting resources to combining them for better items. Combat isn't amazing but it certainly isn't terrible. I do hope that they add more to it at some point or tweak things, but even if they don't I'm satisfied with it. The world and atmosphere is pretty great for an early access game and the only thing that I would like is more dungeons (though maybe there are more, I'm still mostly in low level areas), and more music.

Anyways, this is a really great game and I'm having a blast playing it with friends on a private server. I'm always wanting to play it more and more.

I will be awaiting the release of the final product and fully intend to purchase it. Played for almost an hour and a half, defeated the first boss. Really like the art, world and combat mechanics. Very interesting mix going on here! I did encounter two rather bad issues as detailed below, but they didn't stop me from playing and they shouldn't stop anyone else from trying it out, either!

About 30 minutes before getting to the first boss, the audio glitched out and I only heard the ambient noises - birds and stuff, no weapon sounds, damage indicator, or gem pickup indicator. Worse though was that the game would freeze for 10 - 60 seconds at a time. It's not a performance issue, but something else is going on. When freezing, the game would keep "running", but like not sending any info to the screen. I know this because whenever the screen would update, I would be in a new location. I am not mad about bugs because this is an early build of the game. I kept playing because the game is very good and fun.

Good game 8/10

This is genuinely an excellent game being made by a great dev. This is so far, the closest game that I have found to my idea of a "perfect space game", in that it often feels like an isometric Elder Scrolls game, in space.

An incredibly good game. You can tell that everything about it was made with actual passion, love and care. The people making this game want it to be a good game and they have the vision and talent to do it. Hell, they have been doing it for 2 years now.

Buy this game if you want to play solo, with friends or with the great and friendly community. It's completely viable to play however you want to play.

10/10

TL;DR: Extremely unique, beautiful game that I am obsessed with and cannot recommend enough. Seriously.

I do not often leave reviews, especially positive ones, but this game absolutely deserves it. I have a sort of never ending lust for quality space RPG's where the player is more than a ship and a player portrait. Finding a quality space RPG where one can get out of the ship and stretch your legs is very cool. It is especially rare to find a space game where the universe and general atmosphere feel strange. Every game just feels "futuristic", but we have all seen dozens of games and movies that take place in the future. There's no sense of adventure in those games for me, but this game really gives you a sense of being a bit of an alien yourself. It's strange and unfamiliar. You've got to figure it out.

The artwork and music are absolutely wonderful. Soundtrack especially is a true joy and for once in my life, I have been able to mine asteroids in a space RPG! The music and general feeling keep me entertained well enough to, when I want to eat some food and play this beautiful game, I can just do some mining and relax. No other game has ever been able to get me to go near a mining laser.

Story so far is pretty interesting and I am enjoying it. I am also greatly enjoying the side quests, especially the bounty hunter ones, though I do wish that they were more plentiful. Still, hunting pirates down in their "last seen" sector is fun, too. While the combat isn't the greatest, I don't find it particularly lacking and I am content with it.

The station designs inside and outside are almost all excellent, creative and awe inspiring. This game is almost like Morrowind in space. It gives me that sense of mystery and adventure that no game really has since Morrowind. For me, that is something almost sacred.

I cannot recommend this game enough and I wish nothing but great things for those that have worked on it. If any of my friends express interest but don't want to pay the more than fair purchase price, I will totally buy it for them. I just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ love this game so, so much. I've only been able to play 3 times since purchasing it but I already have 11 hours. Each time I sat down and didn't stop until I had to go to bed. If I could have, I would have put 11 hours in the first night, no problem. This game is addicting.

One of my favorite games of all time. The only game that I can remember that made me cry. Almost every moment is emotional in all of the right ways, an outstanding experience in looks, sound, design and feeling. I grew so close and attached to Senua, that every time I was knocked down in combat I found myself telling her to get up, get up. I am not the type of person to do that, but this game made me truly care for Senua, for her journey. I wish that I could thank everyone who worked on this game, because it has been one of the best experiences that I have had in a long time.

One of, if not the best RPG that I have ever played. I cannot reccomend this game enough.
