Smalland: Survive the Wilds

best game i ever play in my entire life , very good game for adventure , love it

A solid 3,6/5 survival game with good core mechanics, a cool flying system and a great atmosphere. We just played through the whole thing with a few friends and unfortunately quite a few things have been a bit disappointing, especially towards the end. The food system, the equipment system and the inventory management feel incomplete, they lack features, polish and QoL. The combat animations for some mobs are also quite janky, hitboxes can be all over the place sometimes as well, especially for bigger mobs. The quest system was a bit lackluster and while overall it felt good, fairly linear and rewarding - we had a few quests bug out and get stuck for some of us. Small spoiler ahead - The biggest letdown was probably the weapon you get for "beating the game", which had the exact same stats as my axe bought from a faction shop earlier. After we beat the game, we wanted to explore the wyrdweaver "expansion", but sadly it didn't involve any questlines or meaningful exploration. We tried to look for the "new stuff" in the underlands by ourselves, but at some point it just became frustrating trying to find the needed POI:s in a pretty big place, so I did something I usually never do - googled the locations and just spedrun them. My teammates kinda gave up on the game at that point, so I just streamed this for them - crafted the wyrdgear, went and found all the spells and tried each of them once aaaand that was about it. Didn't feel rewarding to play the game anymore, seeing as the story was already completed. Having said all this, we did enjoy playing the game and had a lot of fun exploring the intricate world, discovering new resources and recipes and traversing the smallands. I wouldn't pay the full price for this game, but for the current -75% price it's well worth the money imo! If you like survival games and like the theme of this one - definitely check it out :) P.S. Get a grasshopper asap, they are great!
