I’ve been waiting over a year for this game, and it absolutely delivered. I haven’t finished it yet, but I will update this review once I do. I’ve always enjoyed DigixArt’s games, especially Road 96 and 11-11: Memories Retold, and Tides of Tomorrow lived up to my expectations. The story is already interesting, but the visuals are on another level, absolutely beautiful. The choices you make will not only affect you but also the player who comes after you. You can interact with different characters, search for scraps, and buy ozen, or hope that the previous player has left you some. There are also minigames that influence your story as well. Even without finishing it yet, I can already tell this will be one of my favorite games of the year. Just an amazing experience. Thanks to the team for another masterpiece! Update: So I have finished this game, got all the endings, and searched for all Road 96 easter eggs. These are my key points about Tides of Tomorrow: The biggest pros of this game: 1. Story: Just great. I would not add or take anything away from it. 2. Graphics: They are just stunning! 3. Characters and visuals: All characters have their own story, and the game allows you to explore deeper if that is what you want. And the character visuals, wow, just amazing! 4. Audio, music, tracks: I think one of the things this team always does well is audio, especially the tracks. In Road 96 it was “The Road,” which was so catchy, and in Tides of Tomorrow it is “Cardiac Warfare.” 5. All the Road 96 easter eggs, also STAN and MITCHHH. Some cons: 1. Bugs and glitches: There are some bugs and glitches in the game. Sometimes I needed to restart from the last save, but the team is actively working on them and has already fixed many things within a week. 2. Achievement issues: If you want 100% achievements, it is probably possible, but the only one I am having problems with is the Duck Hunter achievement, but I have seen that the team is already working on it. At the end of the day, it is a great game, and I definitely recommend giving it a try. For me, this is one of those games I wish I could forget just to experience it again without knowing what will happen. Your choices in this game do matter. I saw in some reviews that people think players will not face real consequences if they do not help other tidewalkers. While that is partly true, at the same time, if you do not help them, I think it is almost impossible to get three of the achievements, and you will not hear the Dectas speech. The game is everything I could have hoped for. I would say if you liked Road 96, you will probably like this game as well. Really, thanks to the team. Tides of Tomorrow is an 11 out of 10 game for me!

I like how the game changes based on other players without requiring co-op. It was a fun concept and I'd be interested to see how it works in other genres

Because the gimmick of the game is so punishingly front and center, I wanted to push some positivity about the art and music. The platicpunk aesthetic they've developed for this game is 10/10 dynamite. There's tons of little objects, details and moments that build to an aesthetic that I would love to see in more projects, both in this world and in others. It feels like an opening text that could have inspired tons of other media to take inspiration. The levels are brimming with little details: plasticy record players with twisted plumbing amplifiers, plastic guitars with plastic strings, a wide variety of plastic fashion, and a soundtrack that seemingly makes use of plastic instruments (and has some great synth work to boot). Plastemia, as a concept, is captivating, believable, and terrifying. I really think the folks behind the art and music direction created something groundbreaking in Tides of Tomorrow. I wish it were getting its debut in a more successful game. As others have said, the story and gameplay both feel undercooked. There's neat ideas. Some of the Tidewalker puzzles are fun. Some are like those early 3D movie gimmicks, where they throw junk at the screen just because 3D is in the title, and you already rented the glasses. Consistently, Tides of Tomorrow feels like a game that just needed way more feedback and revision. The foundations are all there. The execution is very lacking. I don't mind a walking simulator personally, and I've been happy to spend time in the game just for the aesthetic. But the gameplay basically only pretends to be more than a walking simulator. You're just doing chores until the next cutscene. And there's definitely scripted moments that have tried my patience, like finding the giant yellow button you know you'll have to press, then waiting 5 minutes for the NPCs to catch up and inevitably tell you to press it. Also, the game is pretty buggy, more than it should be. The systems break sometimes. A major character, early on, completely forgot they'd already met me, I guess because the narrative branch I was on changed for some reason. The boat fights are simple but weirdly fun. I actually quite enjoy them. The boat races are dog water. If this were an open-world plasticpirate RPG, it would be my new favorite game of all time. I recommend TOT on sale. Plasticpunk is, top to bottom, genius. If it had the gameplay of something like Outer Worlds, it would be a landmark success.

It's like Waterworld (1995) and Cyberpunk 2077 had a woke environmentalist love child, and despite some of the characters and writing leaving much to be desired, it's still a great game for some reason. 7604-1807 <--- My seed if you'd like to follow me but fair warning you will be playing the game on hard mode.
