User reviews & Ratings

If you're more of a casual gamer or after a very structured narrative sandbox, you'll like this. I however couldn't. I tried to like it but it constantly was pinging me with messages, tutorialising simple concepts that could have been a 1 sentence explanation in a text box, or making me do a tutorial for something I've already done and twice for something the game already taught me. The game wants you to explore and interact with people but it sets out a firm mission path for all of that. So for someone like me who prefers more open sandbox/exploration games, it felt like the game was constantly getting in my way when trying to enoy myself. The game isn't bad but it's not for me, but I'd recommend to anyone who feels like it might be more their kind of game.

What this is brightly-coloured, highly-saturated, mostly-cheerful, no-risk-of-injury exploration game. Your game loop is based around exploring, or driving your little offroad camper van to another location for more exploring, broken up with exploring some random ruin you stumbled upon. Tech upgrades give you reasons to go back to old areas, just to see if you can't open them up and look inside to get more stuff. One of the first things that struck me was how off-kilter the dialogue was. Well, it's a French game translated economically into English. The language patterns make sense to me (as a bilingual Quebecois) so I get it. It's not like you can't work out what's going on, it's just some words have unusual translations. It's a small curb to climb, and I think it adds a little charm. But this is really the only meaty negative I have for it. Now, nothing in the game is exceptionally difficult. It's kind of strange, the van you drive has suspension modelling, but it never loses grip, and it won't ever flip over no matter how idiotically you drive, and is more forgiving than a monk. So it's got a fair bit of detail it might not need, but since you spend a lot of time driving, it adds a little flavour. Likewise, your character has no hitpoints; she'll take the highest falls with aught but inconvenience. It's not completely devoid of challenge, but it's never *hard*. That's really because this is a game about exploration. Dying and restarts - as welcome as those can be for me - starts adding an undercurrent of stress and tension that this game doesn't really need. If anything, I got a powerful sense of nostalgia from it which I embraced, much as I normally hate nostalgia. Let me explain: As I drove around this world filled with abandoned ruins, I got the sense that there used to be people doing things in these outposts, many decades ago. This was clearly once a bustling community. My old hometown, when I was a child, had all these abandoned buildings on the outskirts, with a full century of disuse. People used to live there and work hard, and when the cash dried up, they moved on, leaving everything they didn't need behind to moulder away. That's what this game reminded me of, my own personal playground, a combination of wonder and amusement with the eternal promise of tetanus for the inattentive, and too far away for bored teenagers to go out for sneaky drinks. Or, alternately, Fyrestone from the original Borderlands. Without the feral wildlife and killer bandits, of course. That same sense of a bustling community abandoned to time. Exploring old stuff like this really speaks to me, not going to lie. Anyway, it didn't take especially long to play through the game; the time spent at the point of review represents exactly 1.00 playthroughs. I didn't go hunting down cheevos or whatnot (I never do), but I did do every side quest, built every gadget. I admit I wasn't a fan of the Great Mysterious Person (GMP). So much of the tension in the plot might have been resolved had the GMP simply been more forthright, rather than trying to be endlessly cryptic and mysterious. I can't say more without spoiling the plot, but things went as bad as they did because GMP is kind of a fool. I do need to address the elephant in the room: This game is currently being brigaded. I couldn't exactly tell you why this is going on, bcause it's pretty incoherent and I don't feel like wading through dozens of pages of FUD (and most of that just D). I expect it has something to do with this game's lightly anti-corporate, otherwise-inclusive messaging, and small studios are easy targets for the cowardly set. Well, regardless of their tomfoolery, I'll wear the clowns proudly and I promise to spend the points on whatever the leftiest, most-woke game possible has to offer. So in short, I rather liked this game. I pretty much did it one sitting, and that's time well-spent off work. I've got other game-related things I do, so if you're down here, not weirdly angry at me for some reason, check out my profile. There may be a few more links of interest to you.

It seems almost absurd how many games feel like they have to have action to be a game. I played this slowly at my own pace over the course of a couple months, and for me it was a place for curiosity and peace. I remember being surprised that you can essentially get to the top of most natural structures if you are creative. You can point at something interesting in the distance...and then decide to go there! With all the mesas, once you got to the top, you sort of feel like you escaped, gotten out-of-bounds, and you feel small in size to the surrounding nature. It really is quite strange how they make you feel like when you climb many of the areas, that you discovered your own path and not something pre-defined. The gorgeous vistas and cute home-base also proves art-style and direction is far more important than graphical detail. TBH I feel these developers could make a really cool rock-climbing or hiking game where it is similarly free-form and entirely up to the player where to go.

What a delightful game! Caravan Sandwitch is an open world adventure in which you control Sauge, a girl looking for her lost sister on the planet of Cigalo. There are no time limits and no stealth/combat. You play at your own pace, with the freedom to explore in any direction you choose. Although you are able to run or walk, your primary mode of transportation is an indestructible van. I am not a fan of driving games, but this one was not too difficult for me. I used the ‘standard setting’ for van controls (one button for forward, one button for reverse) and became proficient, over time. I found that the controller was much easier to play with than a keyboard and mouse. Luckily, the van does not suffer from falling off cliffs and usually lands with the wheels down. Likewise, you are indestructible and will land on your feet even when falling from great heights. In the unlikely event you get your van stuck, there is a recovery option to ‘return to garage.’ The game consists of running fetch errands, opening the map, and finding collectibles. Some quests are time sensitive, but the game is good about warning you if you are about to take an action that will prevent you from completing an open errand. The landscape of Cigalo is littered with huge structures and equipment in various states of disrepair. Your full access to them is limited by the modifications you’ve made to the van. Specialized skills such as scanning, hacking, zip-lining, pulling, and powering up are awarded over time. Thus, it is necessary to traverse the landscape multiple times, entering new areas of structures you’ve explored previously. Cigalo is home to quite a few characters (robots and humans). You interact with all of them and there is a lot of dialog to process. There are no voice-overs. The coin of the realm is salvaged components. These are found in the environment and are also earned by completing errands. There is no shortage of resources and I ended the game with a large inventory of unused parts. Caravan Sandwitch saves on exit to a single slot. At the end, the game does not store final progress. This allows you to circle back for missed achievements and experience both endings without starting a new game. Most achievements will be earned by playing through the story. In addition, you are rewarded for traversing the entire map, completing all errands, and visiting all points of interest. The map is detailed, with a 'you are here' indicator which makes it extremely useful. Communication on the status of errands is handled via an email/messaging system which lets you highlight a task and mark it on the map. Overall, the interface is intuitive and designed to ensure your success. I really enjoyed Caravan Sandwitch and highly recommend it to those who enjoy thoughtful exploration. Although the art styles and modes of transportation are different, I was reminded of Sable and Submerged (two other open world adventures that captured my imagination).

I was looking for a game similar to Sable, and I found it. I call it cozy postapo vibe. I really enjoyed playing it and just exploring the map, although I hoped for some "what happened after" video after I made the final decision. I have one more ending to check, and few more achievements to collect, so I will be back one day. As for a gameplay, it was quite easy and relaxing so great for the beginner players like me, to just unwind after a stressful day. One thing which annoyed me though was speach bubbles while driving. We all know you don't txt and drive, so why you make me read text while I try to drive? It distracted me, I couldn't see the road ahead, had to stop many times, so every time someone was like - let's ride together- I was already annoyed, cause I knew they will be talking some unnecessary things to me =_= Wish there was a way to put the speach bubbles under the car (If anyone even reads this).
