Loving the game; looking forward to see what gets added. Had a few crashes, but IMO that's to be expected - just save often. I've had a few times where I've had to reload the game twice, but so far no hard stops. The game is a little lacking in content for it's price (I got it for $12), but it was worth the investment to me. I've gotten 4 hours of fun out of it and I plan to get at least a few more even in it's current state.

- Best hunger / thirst system I've seen. I don't have to eat 15 steaks every 10 minutes to keep my food and water up. "Survival enthusiasts" may not like it though because it's basically non-existent - I played for 3 hours and didn't even realize it was a thing. I read one of the mushrooms, noticed the bars on the inventory screen and connected the dots.

- Absolutely loving the building system. Snap works well, haven't had any glitches, and things don't cost way too much to build. Only complaint is that you don't seem to get anything back when destroying stuff. Working on building a mansion ATM.

- You can get raw chicken, but I didn't see a way to cook them yet (unable to put them in the forge as far as I could tell.) Still, rather enjoy fireballing chickens with my wand.

- Dungeon diving is decently fun, quick paced, nice to look for upgrades. Gets repetitive pretty quickly though. Wands seem to be OP. Exiting the dungeon can be frustrating because you have to work your way back up and the monsters respawn. So as you're going back up through the doors you spawn into a bunch of enemies and if you teleport then you basically teleport into more monsters. They're easy enough to deal with, at least the 4 or 5 levels I went down.

- Feels like chests are a little too costly to craft. Had a tough time trying to build a little base, upgrade tools, build a boat, and build a chest. Luckily I had just enough iron - not sure what I would have done if I hadn't; maybe you can swim to other islands?

- I have not explored islands much. I don't want to lose the island I started on and there's no indicator / way to get back (that I'm aware of.)

- Outside of crashing when leaving the dungeon, the only bug I've experienced is sometimes my wand seems to explode on me.

Overall, a very good start to a game, just needs some more content, more things for me to work toward. Currently trying to find a better wand and some more artifacts. We'll see how deep the dungeon goes.

A fun little adventure game. I liked the gear and magic system, the storyline was good, and the quests were fun. Fun to explore around and I never really found it too tedious. I played with the gamepad, definitely recommend remapping controls.

Not terrible, but the quirks of the game have infuriated me to the point of quitting.

I'm almost 8 hours in and pretty much the only indication that bats are an enemy is that I need 3 of their wings for a quest. I need insect wings for two other quests. Pretty much all of my monsters have been the imp / goblin things.

No worries though, I've completed the quest to pray at the altar, so I now have no monsters for an unspecified amount of time. "Doesn't last forever" lead me to believe that it would only be a little bit - like 15 minutes; the effect has lasted for over 2 hours of real time at this point.

I almost want to recommend this game simply for the fact that as far as I can tell, it's the only game that has a semi-realistic hunger pattern. I do NOT have to eat sixteen full turkey dinners a day to survive. About 3 meals a day (or lots of snacks through out the day) will keep your hunger bar up.

In the end I played for almost 8 hours, only ran into a bug or two, and it's really just quirks that bother me.

I had a blast playing this game. Finding the collectibles is fun, the dialogue is good, and improving moves at a pace that makes travelling back and forth NOT a burden.

Received in the Humble Bundle Monthly, but I'd gladly pay $8 for it.
