One of the best games to play coop!! We replayed it about 3 times with my brothers and every time we found a new and better way of approaching it. The environment and vibe is awesome - still get goosebumps when I hear the howling. Looking forward to the their new game with much anticipation. This would be a must buy if you are looking for a scary coop game and there is some base building involved.

Awesome game!!

Playing it with my brother, and having a blast!!
You can choose to go silent or loud rambo style.

A lot like GTA, but in a drug cartel vibe.

In it's current state I would not recommend buying. Being a huge fan of The Guild 2, in its current state I would rather recommend buying Guild 2. UI is unplayable, buttons overlaying windows, a lot of icons missing (not the normal 1-5 missing), gameplay is buggy.

I reguraly support early access, but I think this game is far from that. Will be keeping an eye on it for improvement and hoping for the best. Sounds like the devs are active, but I have refunded my game just in case. Will update review should that change..

[Update after trying again] Much cleaner and no bugs I could see. Lines up more towards what Guild 2 was, but that being the late game starts getting chaotic and if not playing multiplayer I would probably recommend something like Crusader Kings rather as it has more depth (even though the learning curve is steep)

Started playing with friends as drinking game. 1st person to die drinks, person to win can give one drink away to anybody.. Lots of fun!!

Started playing and could not stop until I finished the story. More gripping than any of the other Telltale games. Definetly worth a buy. Picked mine up on sale, but would pay full price as well. Awesome story world they created, whish they would make a series about it.

Not a lot of people can say that they earned $ 453 Quintillion in 4 hours, and best of all is its free. Nice game to keep coming back to every few hours to improve your investments. Started out quite slow and now I am cashing in and sacrificing angels left right and center.. What can I say being rich takes sacrifices.. (like me, almost losing my girlfriend because I would stop our movie to come check on my investments..)

I have been part of this game for quite some time now, and still find myself coming back to it every few days. I like the mechanics of what games like 'Minecraft' stand for, but struggle to put in the hours with the big block building. That is where 'Craft the World' took a different approach.

Pros and Cons

Pros

- Easy to pickup the basics
- A lot of things to do
- Starts out easy and progresses to become quite challenging
- Took a few retries before I got my winning recipe
- Every world poses new challanges
- The developers are very active and keep on pushing patches for bug fixes and enhancements
- Awesome detail went into every item
- The variety of monster and animals has come a long way and is great
- The final world took me the longes, and was by far the hardest
- The game has good replay value as there are different modes with different approaches to achieving technology

Cons

- Some times it can become a very time consuming task of finding the right resources to progress in the technology
- Dwarves sometimes run to fetch items in a stupid place, and ends up drowning or being kill (even thou you can use signs to stop them, they still tend to stand and complain about not being able to get there)
- There are a lot of items that add to the creative side of the game, that I felt was stupid to be mandatory to progress in technology (for example paintings and clocks) which cost a lot of resources.
- The big skeletons are b$#ches, and go down very slowly

This gem will always be one of my favorites and I will keep coming back to it. If you like building your own house with dwarves that you can kit with awesome mithril armor and defend it from attacking hordes, do yourself a favour and buy it.. Enjoy!

This was a fun game to play and would recommend this if you have the money to spare and you have a craving for a nicelly balanced city management game.

Pros and Cons:

Pros

- Good graphics
- Very stable (which now a day is something special in games)
- Farelly easy, compared to other previous city management games such as SimCity 4
- It has a very unique feel to it, the game has a way of drawing you into it
- You can spend hours on the asset manager designing highway passes or bridges etc..

Cons

-Traffic is a b@#ch (even if you use highway as far as possible)
- You playing area becomes a bit limited when expanding seeing that you can only select a limited amount of map areas to unlock
- I spent quite a few hours straight playing until I got the city right the way I wanted it, then after that there was no real replay value in it for me (this may differ from person to person)


All in all its a good challanger for 'SimCity' and a even better challanger for 'Cities In Motion' or whatever it's called. Worth it if you want to spend a few hours testing your city planning skills and rebuild the city roads multiple times to try and sort the traffic issues out. Enjoy!
