I was under the impression that this game WAS early access. After reading the reviews, I must reccommend Subnautica. In Subnautica the game play is much like this but you can craft things such as aquariums. It's a bummer the devs gave up on this game. It's a pretty decent game. I'm glad I got it at Bundle Stars and not the full retail price.

This game has a great potential. Unfortunatly, it is probably left aside by the developer... Sad. Bought it on sale (as an Alpha, if I remember correctly... it did not evolve a lot since), I had what I paid for. There is simply not enough objects to be crafted and the needs are minimal. At least, the game is stable and bugs are very sparse. I enjoyed playing it.

Might not look like the best survival game at first glance but its definitely worth the buy. A very peaceful yet challenging game at times. Its great if you like immersive solo survival kinda games, or if you just want to kill some time. Good game regardless :)

Although it is a great game and has potential, the developers are not updating it any longer so we'll never see that potential. Get subnautica, it's like this, but bigger, better, cooler, and it has lots more updates to come.

Good game to play for a weekend. Unfortunately, it's not being developed further, and is left feeling like an early access game. Worth $5 or so for the time you'll get from it.

Simply amazing for 1 night, then you will never play it again.

Its way too shallow on content with mostly useless items and very few reasons to craft things twice.

Play on hard to add fear and slow you down. Or better yet, buy something else.

This could have been a great series but has already been abandoned.

One of the best games I dont recommend, if that makes sense.

This game was great in the beginning, however, content is limited because the dev's quit on the game during early access. It's virtually an underwater version of minecraft, with rebuilding your sub as endgame. No sandbox mode, just 3 slightly different versions of a survival mode. I rarely see anyone with more than 10 hours of gameplay because really there's only about 5 in this before you have nothing left to do, with no real wish for a replay.

Personally, I suggest Subnautica for those interested in this, as it has regular updates and dev's that care.

I really want to recommend this game.

It has a really cool premise and it is pretty well realised.

The problem is that it is short as all hell. Unlike other "Minecraft-like" games out there this really does have a hard end point to it. Your objective is to collect all the pieces of your sub so that you can get back to the surface(which doesn't ,make sense but whatever VIDEO GAMES!) and once you have them all that is pretty much it.

You do unlock a sandbox mode but in playing the main game you will see everything the game has to offer. With the lack of mods and the Developer stating that they will not be adding any more content it is kinda hard to recommend.

It also has one of the worse save functions around. To save you have to quit out of your game completely. That would only be mildly annoying if the game didn't have a nasty habit of crashing to desktop. I stopped playing the game for a week after the game crashed as soon as I found the final piece of the sub. Losing me near to an hour of gameplay.

So in summation
+Cool Premise
+Nice Graphics
+Nice Atmosphere
-Very Short
-No future support
-terrible save function
-Crashes alot

Great fun for the first 2 hours...then you run out of stuff to do.

If your looking for an alternative that actually has some content and regular updates check out Subnautica.
