"Great in story or sandbox, solo or co-op. Atmospheric and detailed with a lush world, unique non-hand-holdy crafting, and fun building mechanics. Also, you can breed and pet capybaras!"

"Everything’s going great—until it’s not! Two thumbs up for Frostpunk, I love me some Society Survival. There’s a sequel, though IMO it leans less toward survival. Hit the link for my wife’s thoughts!"

"Before, I said it had a solid horde night concept and a text-based inventory that grew on me. Still feel that way, but need to revisit. Negative reviews mention paid cosmetics, slow updates, and bugs."

"I like it—a lot. While I could nitpick balance and realism (magical fires, anyone?), it’s a solid take on urban survival. Even with the fixed camera… and zombies."

"Public servers are either amazing RP, chaotic firefights, or a hacker-filled nightmare. Way better with mods (and friends!). Survival is key, big maps shine—modder maps and Livonia are your best bet."

"Zombies? Check. Post-apoc survival? Check. Balancing vitamins while picking stylish crotch coverage? Check. Used to love it, but recent changes feel off. Hoping 1.0 gets it back on track."

"The world is entirely destructible, building can get crazy detailed. Decent combat, oddball graphics, minimal survival requirements beyond don't get eaten- primarily base defense. Bring a friend!"

"I never, EVER complete story games. I completed this story and I loved it. Even the ending! (No spoilers!) It was gorgeous, immersive, and incredibly satisfying to experience and complete. No regrets."

"Gorgeous game with a fun atmosphere. Kinda hilarious to play because, boy am I bad at sneaking and puzzles! Immersive, I often yelled at the screen in both fun and horror."

"Minimal survival elements but tons of weird/terrifying ones. Fantastic atmosphere, especially in caves, nightmare-inducing AI movement and visuals, and a story with a twist."

"My favorite survival game. Sandbox or Story, custom or preset difficulty. Stunning atmosphere, music, and that perfect sense of isolation. Also, SO excited for the sequel."

"Surprisingly fun! Mini maps make for great short play sessions, but when things go sideways, people die. It keeps it interesting."
