« Très bon jeu, un peu dans l'esprit de Wildmender. L'histoire est passionnante, la gestion est prenante. Un vrai bijou. »👍 anonymous review · 27 h played« Bravo pour cette petite aventure ! Je recommande pour un petit jeu à pas cher et très prenante »👍 anonymous review · 37 h played« C'est la fusion entre astroneer et planet crafter. Ca manque cruellement de finition, mais le jeu reste tres sympa »👍 anonymous review · 28 h played« Bravo au Dev Et si je recommande ce jeu ? Bien sur a 100%, c'est un bon jeu, il vire très bien avec mon pc »👍 anonymous review · 74 h played« As of 1.1.0 version, the game takes about 30 hours or less to complete. More content is to be expected (some resources are not used yet). The game is pleasant to play, although it needs a good balancing pass. »👍 anonymous review · 29 h played« Un bon jeu de survie, petit point négatifs sur les interfaces, et sur les intéractions qui sont parfois pas très intuitives. »👍 anonymous review · 8 h played
« It takes Astroneer but without the style and mashes it up with Planet Crafter but without the exploration. Progresses too fast in the early game and really drags in the late game. Fun wobbly cable physics, but generally not much to it. »👎 anonymous review · 11 h played1« mauvais , commandes approximatives , génère plus de frustration que de plaisir. rien a dire de plus »👎 anonymous review · 2 h played« Bloqué a la première étape du tutoriel qui est lui même très mal expliqué voir inexistant , améliorer son back pack, on a besoin de 3 "minerai de fer" mais on ne peux pas sortir dehors, donc bon je ne recommande pas »👎 anonymous review · 0 h played« Pour l'instant un non : on y comprends rien du tout Aucun tutoriel... »👎 anonymous review · 0 h played« A frustrating mess with intentionally tedious mechanics, likely to bolster playtime, since the actual content is very limited. »👎 anonymous review · 13 h played« une petite pépite de jeux , jouer en mode chill , j en suis au début mais franchement j adore »👍 anonymous review · 12 h played
