OK i hope this review reaches the honest people it needs.. It seems on the Dislike side theres a lot of basic complaining and i encourage you not to listen to the negative reviews as these people are just simply quitters not even 40 something hours and its nothing but hate that you have found i will admit it took time for me to get the hang of things but hear this please! As an ex Rust vet wit 2.3k Hrs i quit rust for many reasons i played from beta till the helis being added, my point being is what took rust 5 years to do this game has in early access stage? and i think its going over a lot of peoples heads. then the complaints abouts buggy this buggy that audio this.. dude you are crying like its a fully published game and read the system requirements!? its main OS is widows 7! thats not a bad thing but dont sit here yapping about graphics thats not what this is here for.. The game itself isnt bad yes you get raided and yes you have to go out further from home but what are you actually crying about? theres boats w storage and backpacks etc w more than enough room to do 2-3 island raids while ur out ? you can have auto turrets defend ur base so you don't have to even do anything? and as far as exploring holy crap there's so much to do sure they have 10 main islands but 80% of the game is undersea.. cant be a land bug and call the game trash if u never been down there. next and my final point its not really so much a survival game as it is a sandbox it seems if you want a survival challenge go to day z or sum , but the gun play in this you can make whatever gun you want do whatever you want build whatever wherever with no restrictions? its hell on earth like it took me 30 min to line a building butt i finally got it and it was worth it. i know this was a rant but its an honest review i love this game and i will continue to support the team regardless of their past.

Mutants reminded me of Miscreated mutants which was awsome game years ago... Anyway, I had my fun playing the game for straight 7 hours but lack of end goal realy pushes repetitive side of gameplay on front and starts to get me ask like: "why am i even here?" "What is my objective?" "What is the lore behind this?" Survival aspect of the game is to easy, NPCs where you have to fight with on long range they're basicly non harmfull in close range they're terminators. Loot, explore, expand, built-up your own upgrade. What i realized in 7 hours i explored half of the map, looted more than half of progressed so quick so far i said to myself it will take 'nother 7 hours of loot for me to unlock all the key things from research desk, rest is trade. That moment i lost taste for survival game it just became one of those loot and get better ubisoft games. I liked the game i liked varierty of things but game is far away from survival concept. I will suggest for those who likes explore and grind and built cool bases go around conquer little by little all the islands and become the Kingpin but if you put survival aspect on priority like me it is not for you.

To be totally fair. I love the genre. I bought Raft and both of "The Forest" titles when in early access, when the story wasn't even really fleshed out. I was patient with both titles and those dev teams. They are not triple A studios. What set them apart for me was listening to player feedback. Both titles had a story in mind and worked towards that as the goal of releasing it farther than "early access". Right now i LOVE the "Waterworld" feel of the game. I love the amount of decorations. Even the character customization is very good, far better than what "Raft" or "Sons" gave you. But. I feel the dev team here is focusing on gadgets and mechanics over any meaningful content. I have beaten what you have given me. I don't need you implementing broken machines/ mechanics at the expense of a meaningful story line. There is nothing for me to do other than grind resources for no reasonable reward. Sure, I can build a gyro copter that is painfully hard to control, but why? Where am I going to fly to? As of the last update news, they are attempting to implement customizable ships and the mechanics there. Who am I going to fight? Why do I want or need a ship that has no current function? Again, I respect and love what the dev's here are attempting, but as a veteran of MANY different survival games, I can't give this title full support when there has actually been redaction of content in favor of pushing fluff (they removed quests already implemented in earlier versions). Pros- Love the atmosphere, great feel to it. If you want to decorate your base like "waterworld" this is your game. Resource grinding isn't that difficult. Fun to just build and explore areas. Cons- Content at the moment is minimal, the world seems very empty. You can easily defeat all of the enemies with very little effort. No story line to speak of, No news on that from the dev team. Again, why do I need a patrol boat to fight enemies already dead with no point in mind? At the moment I can give this 3 of 5. Mostly positive. I have hopes that the dev team will refocus on story and content over fluff. Yes I want customizable ships. Yes I want naval combat, but against WHOM, and WHY?

If Raft and Sons of the Forest decided to hook up during a hurricane, their love child would be Sunkenland. It's the ultimate survival game where the world is your oyster -- or at least, what's left of it after the apocalypse flooded everything. First off, you can play with a lot of friends. Up to 14, which means you'll either build an unstoppable fortress of friendship... or realize your friends are terrible at teamwork when the pirates show up. And oh, the pirates. These guys show up like uninvited party crashers, except instead of eating your snacks, they blow up your base. The crafting system is addictive. You start with humble tools and work your way up to becoming a full-blown post-apocalyptic Bob the Builder. The research able is your new best friends -- unlocking new levels of crafting that will have you saying, "Wait, we can build what now?" Exploration is where things get wild. Each island feels like its own mini-game of "how many mutants and hostile survivors can I fight before I panic and run away?" And as you progress, the challenge ramps up. The more advanced islands make you feel like you've stumbled into someone else's territory-- and they're not thrilled about it. Sure, it's a little chaotic, but that's the beauty of Sunkenland. It's a mix of strategy, survival, and complete mayhem, all wrapped up in a game that keeps you on your toes. Just don't get too attached to your base-- mutants and pirates have a knack for reminding you who's boss. If you love crafting, chaos, and a little bit of underwater drama, give Sunkenland a go. It's like the survival game you didn't know you needed, but once you start, good luck putting it down.

It's a good game, the graphics the atmosphere, the fights the vehicles (boats) with the exception of the helicopter which is unflyable, are all good. However there is no point to all this battling and cruising around except to get better weapons and a lack of compelling underwater sites after the very beginning of he game. All and all it's a good game, I just wish there was a purpose to it.
