unlabelledView post →This is the game I've spent the most time playing so far. I will never forget the feeling of launching the game for the first time and seeing those evergreen trees swaying in the wind, even though they were just textures and animations. Most of the time, I just run around on the map, chopping trees, mining, collecting resources, and planning my survival schedule. For me, this is the most interesting part of the whole game, even more so than fighting bosses. I think it and DST are two separate…

unlabelledView post →I recently got into this because of the cameos of certain weapons and monsters in Terraria, and BOY have I been missing out. The thing I truly respect about this game is that instead of making itself accessible to appeal to as many people as possible, it decided to stick to its own identity in spite of pandering to a mainstream audience. Something you should take note is that this game WILL kick your butt on your first few runs, and you will constantly be on edge as you'll never truly feel…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Dont starve is a survival game through and through. It features a simple UI and a fantastic hand-drawn art style, with a dark and mysterious theme, which, if you wanted to, you could describe as a Burton-esque aesthetic. The animation of the characters and environment is fluid and satisfying, but not overwhelming. This is all complemented by the sound design and soundtrack. There is ambient storytelling throughout if you wish to engage with it, or if you are simply a fan of survival games and…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →hey. dont cry. Charlie, otherwise known as the Darkness or the Night Monster, is a hostile damage source unseen to the player in-game. She only attacks when the character is in complete darkness. She is the secondary antagonist of Don't Starve and its DLCs and the main antagonist of Don't Starve Tog

unlabelledView post →This game makes me wish steam had more than just upvotes and downvotes. In short yes, the game is super fun. If you like difficult games and don't mind sinking a lot of hours in, reading the wiki or watching Youtube tutorials, then this is the game for you. You can get it on sale for super cheap and I've played this game along with the together version and will continue to do so. The problem is that the game doesn't tell you how to do anything. Don't get me wrong, it's fun to figure stuff out…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →great survival game . i advise , but its better to buy DS together
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →You start the game. You walk around, spot a beehive, and hit it. Oh no—the bees attack! You die. You start the game over. This time you see a beehive and avoid it. You wander around the map, collecting items. Night falls, you can’t see anything. A few seconds pass… and you die again. You create a new save and start from scratch once more. Only then do you realize you need to light a fire. Night comes, you light the fire. This time, you don’t die—you learned from your past mistakes. You make…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Unfortunately I am not good at this survival game in which you have to eat, keep sane und keep away from dangerous creatures but I like the art style very much and I am impressed by the creativity of the developers regarding the creatures and the several playable characters. The latter have different features which have varying effects on the runs.

positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I've loved this game from the first moment I fired it up at 2:40 AM with all the lights off, door closed and curtains drawn. It was goofy then creepy then frustrating but so very fun and addicting. You'll die and die often but it's ok because it was fun while it lasted and you can just start again forewarned and with experience!

unlabelledView post →The idea is brilliant. The execution forgets to teach you anything. I want to love Don't Starve. The concept is excellent, and the first few hours do pull you in. The longer I played, though, the clearer one problem became: the game does not teach you across rounds. Each round should leave you better prepared for the next. Instead, each round teaches you almost nothing, and the result is a loop that feels less like mastery and more like repetition. Good survival games make failure productive.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A VERY unique game amongst the genre of open-world survival games! This one holds a very special place in my heart, since all the way back in Alpha(God, when was that...? 2012? 2013?? It's been so long...). In a world full of mystical wonder and cryptic history, you find yourself in a place entirely unfamiliar to you. Strange creatures prowl the land, night and day twist and turn as fast as a compass spins, and the darkness takes all that it consumes! This world is out to get you, and it wants…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →As more and more content gets added to Don't Starve Together, I find myself preferring the original Don't Starve over it. Sure you can play multiplayer in DST and customize the settings, but I personally find the simplicity of the original DS more enjoyable. It doesn't suffer from content bloat and is generally just a fun survival game that has become nostalgic to me these days. (I can't believe it was released 13 years ago. ♥♥♥♥. I'm old.) And if you don't want to just see how long you can…

unlabelledView post →Honestly really fun, but a pretty hard game. Though I've heard from others that this is one of those games that just gets easier the more you learn about it (which now that I've typed that out sounds stupid as I'm sure any game or anything in general gets easier the more you learn about it). I think this is really fun and the art style is really cool. I also like the character designs and how each of them have their own unique traits like how one person likes to set fire to things and another…
