Distrust

This is one of those games I want to love. It has so many things I do, survival, resource management, unique unlockable characters. However, the game falls short. It isn't well balanced for the design. It relies heavily on proc gen with seemingly few cosiderations as to whether it's possible to survive. You go through levels looting randomized stuff. Often you won't get the right variation of items. You might get a level with two food when you need six for your characters to survive. You'll waste tools/stats unblocking doors to empty rooms. 2 enemy types can only be killed by looted items. Better hope you were lucky in your random drops to get them, else you die. Your health constantly ticks down when in presence of enemies. All your other stats tick down rapidly requiring you to replenish every few minutes it feels like. I like asurvival challenge, but this game is overly punishing and too reliant on luck. It could be so much better with some minor tweaks.

Its a good game especially for the price. Games is alittle hard at first, but when you start to learn the basics and unlock new character the game takes off from their.

Pros: Easy to learn controls. Easy to navigate UI. Great setting. Great ST. Interesting story plot inspired by "The Thing"(go watch it, you'll love it). Interesting characters each with advantages and disadvantages. Cons: Wound mechanics - There should be severities of simple, mild and severe instead of one nonstop bleeding wound that doesn't go away on it's own. Jackets - They don't really seem to have any noticeable effect even on the guy with 3bar cold resistance. Food/Cigs - Maybe it's just me but cooked food and cigs should also provide a bit of warmth. They don't for me. Bug maybe? Drinks - NEED MOAR COFFEE

If you like The Thing you might enjoy this. You can fight sleep or fight them. I leave my teamates and walk around alone.

great survival game, punishing yet rewarding. one guy here said it was boring,clearly he. didn't take the time. to look up. anything about the game first LOL!
