I was first introduced to this game a few months ago when I watched Markiplier do a video on it. I love Mark’s videos and pretty much every single game that he plays, I go out and get because the way he does his videos makes me fall in love with that game. However, this was not one of those games, I watched the video and did like it, but I thought the game was too slow paced and I didn’t really like the way that it looked so I dismissed it and never thought about it again. Fast forward a couple of months, and mark does another video, this time, it was of a mod that was based on himself. After watching this video, I said what the heck, I might as well try it out. I was planning on buying the game for my laptop, but then I learned that there was a version of it for PS4 so I ended up buying if for the system. Unlike most games, I did not have much excitement for the game, I just wanted to test it out to see what it was like, and the game was pretty enjoyable. It wasn’t a top notch game like some of the others that I have played this year, but it was still a fun game to play and it has to be one of the best made games that I have seen in a while. It was also cheap compared to other PS4 titles, I bought it for just $15 and from what I have seen the 3 times I have played the game, that’s a very fair price for the amount of content that is given. The thing about the game that gave me the most interest was how the in game functions are similar to Minecraft, and that’s a game that I really like. Before even palying, after just watching the videos, I began to view the game as a crossover between Minecraft and some random RPG. GRAPHICS 9/10 The graphics are not really what you would expect to see from a PS4 game. They are very simple and not quite realistic. It’s colorful and beautiful, but not at the same level as most PS4 games. If that was just what I would base the grade on, then the grade would be very low, but I’m not, there’s way more to this games graphics than just that. I really like the style of the drawings, I think each scene is funny yet brilliant and I love that. If I had to compare the drawing style to another piece of media, I would have to say it looks a bit like that of Gravity Falls, a show that has very unique drawings. Because of this, I feel that the graphics are spectacular, even if thay aren’t like other games. The graphics are unique and beautiful and because of this, I give this aspect a grade of 9 out of 10. MUSIC 9/10 Whoever made the music for this game had done a terrific job because the music creates the perfect atmosphere for the game. I don’t even care for the random sounds that appear when a creature pops up or something else happens because the music is all that you need to be immersed in the game well enough. Some of the music is very well made and makes the game sound even creepier, darker, and more mysterious than it already is. There are some songs in the games soundtrack that sound like epic masterpieces that could be in mega film or TV series like Lord of the Rings or Game of Thrones. Some of my favorite songs from the soundtrack include Cave of Danger and Epic Ruins. My favorite is Cave of Danger and when I was looking the song up, quite a few people said it was similar to the music from Skyrim. Overall, I love the music, it’s both dark and energetic. There are 23 different songs throughout the game and some of them are really good. My overall grade for sound is going to be another 9 out of 10. STORY 8/10 The story is very similar to Minecraft and features a randomly generated 3D world for you to explore and survive in. There isn’t much to the story itself and it isn’t really unique. Like Minecraft, and other similar games, the main objective is simply to stay alive as long as you can. There isn’t much more to the story aside for a few bits and pieces given in trailer and a few parts throughout the game. Even though it’s small, there’s still a lot to the story and for this, I give the story an 8 out of 10. ADDICTIVNESS 9/10 Again, like Minecraft, you can pretty much do whatever you like, and as many times as you like. Just the fact that the world is randomly generated each time you play means that you will have a pretty different experience each and every time. One time, you may start near areas with tons of rescourses that you need while other times you will start in much harder areas which make each starting point a different adventure in its own and will cause each time you play to be different. Because of these small features, this becomes a game in which you would want to play over and over as many times as you can and for this, I give the addictiveness portion a grade of 9 out of 10. DEPTH 9/10 Again, this all goes back to it’s similarity to Minecraft and the fact that the game is Randommly generated. The world is huge and there is simply so much for you to find and do. The game is very in depth, you can probably play the game over and over again for hours each time and still end up missing a few things because there’s so much to explore. As for the depth of the game, I am going to give it another 9 out of 10. DIFFICULTY 5 The game is a simple point and click game and is fairly easy if you know what to do and are patient. If you are not patient, you might find yourself screaming at the screen every once in a while and giving up even though there’s always a way to succeed in this game. As long as you don’t give up, you learnt he controls as best as you can, and you find a pace that is comfortable for you, then the game is going to be quite easy. Overall for difficulty, I am going to give this game a 5. OVERALL 8.5/10 Like I said, this is not one of the best games that I have played this year, but it’s a bit better than I had expected it to be and was quite enjoyable. I would not suggest getting this game unless you are already a fan of similar games or if you watched a few videos and like what you saw. Overall, I am going to recommend the game because it’s fun and challenging and my overall grade for the game is going to be an 9.5 love Mark’s videos and pretty much every single game that he plays, I go out and get because the way he does his videos makes me fall in love with that game.

Though this is something I wouldn't play, also regarding the fact I can't invest in a Playstation 4, I enjoyed this review. It ran smoothly, and it contained a decent amount of detail. Keep up the good work. Maybe I should write a review today. After all, my last review was yesterday O_o Maybe I should write a review today. After all, my last review was yesterday O_o |

Nice review zander, I have no Playstation 4 as well but it's cool to see another one of your reviews. The only thing is, your text box is pretty small so I have trouble reading the whole review. I suggest that you don't use this layout for your reviews, I got the same advice as well for a strategy guide I made. Still, a very good review, keep up the good work |

Eniitan : Yay. Thank you. *Poke* PixelBrick : Well if you can't get a PS4, you could always get the Steam version which I believe might be just a bit better because of the controls and I believe that it's also the same price as the PS4 version. And of course for the PC version, theres all sorts of DLC stuff and a bunch of mods that would make the game much better and last longer. Even if it's something you wouldnt consider playing, it's definintly a time wasting game that could keep you occupied for a long time.

A game that can keep me occupied for a long time? I think the Final Fantasy series is already doing that for me. I'm replaying the games I have not played in about seven years. (VII, VIII, IX) |

Not a bad review, man. If you could remove the summons and personal messages at the end (the part following the summons), I would gladly feature this for you. |
