Early Access Review
As my good friend Skele said, 'It's like House Flipper on steroids' and he's not wrong.
Co-op is incredibly fun from building a house from scratch to slapping one another out a moving vehicle.
Is it buggy and glitchy? Yes, yes it is.
Do I care? Absolutely not, I've got contracts to fulfil

Like Studio Ghibli movies?
Like to be emotionally invested in things?
Like a narrative style that will take you on a journey?

Get. This. Game.

It's stunning. Not just visually but in every sense of the word. From the moving music to the rolling landscapes, there is nothing I disliked about this experience. I got SO invested in the story, I actually sobbed my little eyes out at the ending even though I kind of knew how it'd end.
At every 'level' I was wowed. I audibly gasped at a lot of the scenery, and even just stood there to soak it all in.
While it is a 'short' game (completion time around 5 hours ish) it's worth every single penny, every single second. LOVED it.
10/10

Early Access Review
An incredibly charming game where gathering ingredients and making potions, all while making friends, is at its very core.
Dialogue is witty and fun to read, and the style of the game is utterly gorgeous.
I've only played for a few hours but I already know it's my latest addiction. Can't wait to see how this develops in the future.

My name isn't Zak Bagans. I never believed in ghosts until I came face to face with one... and this game sure makes you feel like you're part of the Ghost Adventures / Ghost Hunters crew.

I love it.
I'm genuinely scared of the dark so this game terrifies me.
Yet I'm absolutely addicted.

Is it a bit janky in places? Sure.
Does it need tweaking? Of course.
But it's an Early Access game, so it has scope to be developed and perfected. If it's this enjoyable now, I can only imagine what the developers will add to make it even better in the future.
A must buy!

Good fun! Set aside a lot of time, this will take a while! It's worth it though :)

But don't trust that Priest.

He has hax.

Early Access Review
At first glance I thought this to be quite a serene setting; beautiful sea water stretching for miles around, warm sunshine beating down on a sandy island, complete isolation, and zero stress.

Oh, how wrong was I.

There are only so many resources on your starter island, which means sooner or later, you'll have to paddle out. Here I thought it was a quick island hop across some deep water. Little did I know that suddenly all sharks have become JAWS (which is a little ridiculous, but I'm willing to give in to a little fantasy here). So where a leisurely paddle across to island number 2, becomes a frantic race as the shark bumps your raft so you land in the water and it can eat you. If you are bumped off and find yourself in the water, be prepared for some wonderful bugs such as; not being able to get back in the raft, not being able to swim properly, and who can forget this classic: watching your raft literally fly away in the sky as its bumped a mere one time by the ever powerful JAWS shark.

Early Access or not, it IS a good game and has a lot of potential. If you're looking for fast and great content updates however, it's not the game for you.
The islands are too far apart.
A lot of the physics needs changing.
The sharks, if we're to keep them JAWS sharks, need to piss off after a few hours; I've never seen a shark wait three days and two nights circling a tiny spot of water waiting for me to leave. Without rest.
It needs more variety; the only island dwelling wildlife are crabs. I also find it strange that only potatoes grow on this island, and disappointed I'm unable to make chips.

All in all, I'd give it a rather too generous 7/10. Too many bugs, but has potential. Just need proper, meaty updates to actually happen. Maybe delay buying until then.
