This game was on my wishlist for a while, and when it went on sale for such an amazingly low price, I scooped it up. The poor reviews had me worried. For the life of me, I can't understand the negative reviews. Does the game have some bugs and glitches, yes. They are so minor, they don't matter much. There are so many positives about this game, I don't have the words to do them justice. I love games like ARK, Valheim and 7 Days to Die. This game is right up there with them. There is so much to do in this game, it's overwhelming. You have many options on how you want to play and make the 20 lands your own. Yep, 20 maps and they are beautiful. There is a map that makes you feel like you are on an African safari. The animals are adorable and so well done. So you can't feed them, big deal. They roam around and look more realistic than animals in most other games. You can have them as companions too. The best part is there are 3 modes- normal with combat, peaceful and creative. I started with normal mode but decided peaceful was the better option for me. There is so much to discover, and you get to roam the lands with a horse. I'm only about 27 hours in and I can see easily hitting hundreds. My only regret is not picking this game up sooner. What a gem!

Played for 9hrs, cleaned 2 islands and set up a nice base. My horse glitched and got stuck in the bridge. I couldn't free him by moving or jumping or anything, couldn't even get off and abandon him. Thought its fine, I set up the auto save feature I'll just go back to the last save sure ill lose some project but i was just wandering round for stray loot for the last 5 mins nothing lost. But how wrong I was, auto save hadn't auto saved..... AT ALL. I hadn't felt the need to manually save because I hadn't left the game and I thought the auto save was set up!! So I was forever stuck in that spot and the only option was to quit and lose NINE HOURS OF GAME PLAY. Couldn't' find any other way out. So all lost. will be a while before I can face coming back. Spectacular game up to that point, can't 100% blame the makers for this problem but just beware, check you auto save or make sure to manually save from time to time. Don't end up like this rage quitter before you.

I've edited my old review. This is a more up-to-date review. In the first moments of my gameplay, I thought this game was no more than just another common survival game with bugs and it felt like it could be a little boring. I was totally wrong, though! This game has much more to give than I thought at first. Not 1, not 3 hours are enough to find out all what this game has to offer After finding out by myself how interesting this game can be, I got addicted to it. If you enjoy other games under the survival crafting genre, Animallica is a mix of other survival games, with the animal rescuing feature and theme that makes it even more interesting for who loves games centered in saving animals. PROS & FEATURES: [*] The game became better after some big patches and there are more new things after the Beta stage; [*] Animal taming - tranquilize, cure and tame a wide variety of animals species; [*] Animal diversity - the game contains diverse types of animals you'll come across with in your adventures - domestic/farm animals as well with animals from around the world (bears, big felines, wolves, elephants, pandas, deer, chickens, and many more); [*] 3 different game modes - Survival (which is the normal mode, where you will fully experience all the game features, basically), Peaceful mode (similar to Survival, but without the evil enemies to deal with (warning: animal with predatory instinct like tigers, bears, etc will still attack you on sight), and Creative mode - where you are free to spawn in any kind of item and animal existing in the game and build an animal haven for free; [*] Plenty kinds of maps - Both Survival and Peaceful modes offer you (currently) about 20 different maps to fully explore (3 of those maps are appropriated to build bases at and place your captured animals on them, as they are safe and have plenty free land to do these things). The creative mode has 6 different maps with enough building space to put your creativity to use. [*] Maps containing areas of different difficulty: Different maps offer you different difficulties (Survival mode mainly). Some areas may be populated with enemies, others without any or just a little amount. The game tells you which maps are more or less safe to explore before you travel between them through an air balloon. [*] Diverse points of interest available - from houses, to fortificated towns, castles, pyramids, cave, etc... These points of interest usually have a nice amount of loot to collect, and some have enemies nearby or no enemies at all. Also a chance of finding a couple of animals around these places. [*] Currency system and trading - there are different kinds of currencies in this game. Gold coins are the main currency. Through your journey, you will also earn Credits and find valuable items which you can trade for nice things at the different NPCs traders stalls located in a couple of maps. [*] Recycling - You're able to recycle certain kinds of items through the recycling bins, in exchange for a certain amount of gold coins. It is recommended to pay attention to which things you should or should not recycle since you may need those items for another use later. Thankfully, there are different ways of earning gold in this game. [*] A huge amount of different items to consume or use in crafting. [*] Diverse crafting options - ability to craft a huge diversity of objects - different storage containers, buildings, decorations, crafting stations, metal bars, consumables (like potions or foods)... [*] Different themed-buildings and other types of placeable structures available. If you love making parks and forests, Animallica has a really big amount of different types of plants and trees to help you creating them; [*] Big diversity of content (many tools and weapons, buildings and other placeables (functional and decorative), animals, maps/environments, ...; [*] The game reveals more things the more you play it. It keeps you busy for hours. While you think you have done and captured everything in a map, you will later realize you haven't fully done everything in that map and will need to come back to it, meaning more hours spent in fulfilling achievements; [*] The tutorial and journals will help you getting started as well with guiding you on what you should be doing next (not an obligatory path to follow however, you play the game as you wish); [*] Can interact with water masses - dive and swim to reach to smaller islands or pick up underwater resources; [*] Saddled horses will allow you to travel faster through the lands, but there is a personal preference from some players that will go by foot (requires consumption of more stamina drinks to keep running however); [*] General gameplay in 1st person only; riding a horse will allow you to see things in 3rd person; [*] The hunger, thirst and stamina levels were adjusted, to prevent the constant need of drinking or eating. Make sure you still pay attention to your stats though. You will manage to find which foods, drinks or medicine are more effective to keep your character healthy. [*] Each item has an useful description - hover with your mouse over it while in the inventory and learn more things about it. [*] Vivid colors. The sunsets and sunrises look really pretty. [*] Diverse sound and graphical options available, to adjust things that fit your preferences. [*] Friendly and helpful community. [*] Easy way of reporting and game issue with response. [*] Different options to save the game (manual, automatic and quick save). The game saves locally however - I recommend doing a backup of your saved game folder to a different drive or save it in cloud storage or in your email account, just in case anything happens to your PC and you don't want to lose your progress. CONS: [*] Being honest in here, Animallica is not flawless. [*] Apart of the background music and ambient sound being good, some other sounds may not be everyone's cup of tea (rats and evil cats screams, bear traps shutting). [*] Possible occasional jumpscares - the enemies rarely make any sound while running around, and they will easily show up behind your back, when you turn around and see them, that can be a little scary situation. Also stepping on bear traps may scare you a bit because of their noise. Pay attention to your surroundings to avoid mostly of these. You can destroy the traps by the way! [*] "The Looting Game" - you will find yourself spending a good part of your time looting items through many places, there is a huge amount of them and that can be a quite repetitive task, however, you will need a big amount of those resources you keep grabbing in the future. [*] No modular building (except on fences). You need to use the premade buildings available. This may limit things a little bit when it comes to imagination - but it is still very possible to build your base and several animal havens. [*] Minimum and Recommended Requirements to play Animallica can be demanding mainly when it comes to the graphics card. The game went through a rocky road when it comes to being built in an old engine as well with optimization flaws, it has been optimized since a good while ago but it may be a bit far from perfection, so check if you have an acceptable pc rig to play it (you may be able to play it with pc parts with some years old, but in mid or lower settings. [*] AMD Radeon graphics cards incompatibility - The game has stopped to be compatible with AMD Radeon series that are not kind of old. I recommend owning Nvidia graphics card if you are thinking about buying this game. [*] While the developers keep aiming to patch the game with hotfixes, one or another bug or other issue may happen for a few players, usually restarting your game, or verifying the integrity of your game files fixes part of these issues. The game is playable for me at least and I can do everything I wish in it at least for now. Summing up, I recommend getting this game.

I really like the game only thing missing is multiplayer. I feel lonely in this game and would love to play with others like friends and family.

It's Good! So, I am basically just going to assume that you have read the store page and have an idea of what this game is about. You should if you are here. My Experience So I had watched some videos on Youtube earlier today and knew nothing about this game until today 06/07/2017 . I bought the game without any expectations and off I went. Right of the bat I felt intrigued to search about the starting area and get to grips with everything. All the usual things are there like the crafting, scavaging, slots on your character for clothing. You know the drill. The crafting menus need love as you can really only scroll from the top to the bottom at present. You also have your typical hunger, thirst, health and stamina management. Upon further investigation, I found what is like an underground science lab. Hmmm so? So this is the area where you can cure and tame animals. I am not going to waffle on about how you do all the different things, but this is the main feature (or so I believe) and how you go about building your reserve with different animals. The starting area contains your empty reserve with various different enclosures for you to start building up your collection. So far I rescued a dog and a Deer. From doing a liitle researching online, it seems there are different grade animals from common through to rare. Could be a lot of fun finding these? So, I went out and had a good roam around the starting area and collecting resources lying about as well as hacking trees and rocks etc. I managed to make some tools and also a construction bench which opens up the next tier of items you can build as well as crafting stations like a tannery and all that good stuff. The crafting menu grew massively from laying down that initial crafting station. I can only imagine the crafting options being insane once you get all the core stations in place. And there were lots! Maybe slightly overwhelming for some. From food, to clothing, to structures, to tools, weapons, furniture.....there's loads! I decided I wanted to just explore at this point. I had fun looking through all the structures in the starting area and gathering up all the materials I could find on the way. I even went for a look in the sea (seems almost empty other than weeds you can collect). I stumbled upon a ship on the shoreline and this is how you navigate from biome to biome. You click the portal and you are presented with a menu. Each box represents an area. Sorry about the pics. Taken on 3 screens. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=966398516 http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=966445492 http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=966445529 There are quite a few places to go explore already, but based on those pics, this looks to be huge. My hope here is this becomes seamless rather than porting. I tried only one other area and the biome was completely different. This biome was more akin to the lands where Conan makes his stand (Conan the Barbarian - Battle of the Mounds) and the enemies were also very similar, though none on a horse back. That said, I felt like the identity of the game was confusing. We go from the lush starting area and into the next biome where the portal area has a helicopter to indicate the protal area rather than the previously mentioned boat, which sort fits the biome. It's worth mentioning there were different animal types in the second biome. Want some camels? that's the place to go. I think this will be the case per biome, and searching each biome is gona be a lot of fun for me. Speaking of animals. Once you capture, cure and tame your animals, you can have 5 of them as companions at a time. I have not tried this yet, but they can follow you around and attack or standby on your command. They also come labelled with their gender and rarity and so on. It's Early Access And it shows it.... [*]Basic crafting menu [*]Basic vitals meter [*]No numbers on your quick bar [*]Horse camera is janky and might make you feel sick [*]Managing your inventory is a game in itself [*]No FOV slider [*]No search funtion for crafting [*]Animations and ai could use work [*]Combat feels basic [*]Survival is easy. Chug water and food. That said, It ran very well on ultra settings on my rig 50-60fps (GTX980Ti/4790/16g/Win10) and it also ran decent in Nvidia Surround at 5760x1080 at around 30-40 fps. To sum it up, If you like exploring, lots of crafting, and building an animal sanctuary....this should be right up your street. But remember it has a ways to go. The potential is there and I'd honestly say there is plenty of content to play with right now. I will add to this as i go.
