1800 hours of playtime and counting. Solo or with friends, this game is a highly customizable experience, both through game-settings and through modding. The atmosphere can be anything from pleasant to tense, as you sneak around sites trying to find useful stuff or complete a mission. Pay attention or pay the price! It is a "sandbox game", in the sense that the game doesn't set any goals for you. You can play singleplayer or set up a server to play either alongside friends or in one or more teams. The name hints at the default setting for the core "gameloop", in which you have 7 days to set up a base, to protect yourself from when a sudden horde of zombies will attack you. Survive and you get another 7 days. You are, by default, immortal as you resurrect shortly after dying, but that fact, and how much you suffer from dying, is customizable.
Get good enough to stay ahead of the threat, or simply set the threat to zero, and you will have time to focus on building something nice for yourself, using a fairly rich set of buildingblocks, furniture, and paint-options. The game also includes a primitive but useful function for powering and wiring up some things, like lights, automatic doors, and autotargeting gunturrets.
Resources can be collected by buying them from traders (no other NPC:s for now), by searching surrounding locations, or by gathering materials and building stuff yourself. The traders offers a set of tasks to complete for rewards, and also buys some of the things you might want to sell.
At the current state (v1.3) it is hinting at some kind of background story, but none actually exists in-game. Low-level modding is fairly easy as long as you are willing to read the guides on Fandom.com, and learn some markup-language-coding in XML. Mid-level modding can be done through trial and error with more poking around in the games XML-files, and learning how to code basic "regular expressions". High-level modding is possible, but beyond my scope at this point.
The description says it better than i ever could.
I have been playing the pre-alpha for years now and with every update i enjoy it more.
I see Wintercastle has played for 1800 hours.
This is comparable to the hours that i have enjoyed this must have game.
The best part is the infinite ways to play it.
My highest level Char was around level 300.
Pleas, bring this to GOG!
Eternal Darkness: Sanity's RequiemEternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem is a psychological horror action adventure, released in 2002 by Nintendo for the Gamecube. It tells the stories of twelve characters that span across the world and two millennia who have to deal with ancient forces of evil which have been trying to manifest themselves in our world. Chapters take place in Ancient Rome, Persia, the Middle East, and modern-day Rhode Island. Throughout the game, the protagonists will have access to several weapons appropriate for their era, from bastard sword & gladius to flintlock pistol and shotgun.
The game features an involved Magic system, which allows different spells to be created through the combination of runes. These spells can attack enemies, dispel illusions, and heal both the body and items.
Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem also has a unique feature called Sanity. If an enemy sees a character, their Sanity meter drops. When Sanity gets low, hallucinations begin to plague the character. Walls bleed, voices whisper from nowhere, the camera gets disoriented. Sanity can be restored by dealing a finishing move on a dying enemy, or with spells or some items.Action Horror Survival
TurokTurok is a first-person shooter developed by Propaganda Games, and published by Touchstone Games and Disney Interactive Studios, originally for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 in February 2008. It was later ported on to Microsoft Windows in April 2008. A sequel was planned and developed for the Xbox 360 but it was cancelled before it was even officially announced.
The game is loosely based on the comic book series of the same title and is unrelated to the story and setting of previous Turok video games. Players assume the role of Native American space marine Joseph Turok, who is part of a team sent to a remote planet to apprehend his previous commanding officer, General Roland Kane, now a wanted war criminal. After crash landing, Turok discovers this planet is home to all manner of dinosaurs, and must fight both the predatory creatures and Kane's private army on his mission to take down his former mentor.Action Science fiction
Zoo Tycoon: Complete CollectionAn insidiously addictive simulation game, Zoo Tycoon allows players to create their own zoo, but not just any zoo. It's completely free-form: Start with fences for your exhibits, then pick animals and give them toys, foliage, and anything else you want. For your customers, you can lay down paths to lead them around, then add food stands, amusement rides, even maps and trash cans. Not sure what you need? The zoo advisors will tell you how to make the animals happy, and the customers themselves will tell you what they're looking for, be it snacks, more animals, or anything else. There's also a vast amount of background information on each critter--its diet, its habitat, etc.--which can be useful when you're adding a macrauchenia or a Loch Ness Monster. In all, you can choose over 100 animals, plus countless habitat and park embellishments.
Earthworm Jim: Special EditionThe game's Special Edition was released for the Sega Genesis add-on, the Sega CD. It was based on the Genesis version, contained all of its levels, plus some extended section to the levels and a single completely new level, titled "Big Bruty", a new remixed CD audio soundtrack, as well as around 1,000 more frames of in-game animation. These versions were also the only ones to contain alternate endings when winning on the "Easy" or "Difficult" difficulties, in which a narrator rambles on about many (false) facts about worms or congratulates the player in a similar absurd manner respectively. The Special Edition was later ported to Windows 95 by Activision.Action Comedy Science fiction
