I never thought shaking a rat would become a core memory, but here we are. From the moment I grabbed that little digital rodent, everything changed. The tactile satisfaction, the cathartic release, the sheer joy of watching it flail — it was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. Shaking the rat wasn’t just a game mechanic; it was a journey of self-discovery.

With every shake, I felt layers of stress peel away. My worldview shifted. Problems that once seemed insurmountable now feel like minor inconveniences. Shaking the rat taught me patience, perseverance, and the untapped power of pure chaos. It's hard to articulate just how much I enjoyed shaking that rat, but I assure you — I enjoyed it immensely.

Even after closing the game, I couldn't stop thinking about it. The memory of that little guy, spinning and flopping with reckless abandon, has been seared into my brain. I see it when I close my eyes. I feel it in my hands. Shaking the rat is more than a game. It’s a rite of passage.

If you've never shaken a rat, you owe it to yourself to try. I didn't just play this game — I lived it. And I am forever changed.

10/10 – Would shake the rat again.

Its got some bugs. But its super fun. And with an extremely open and active development team; I'm excited to see what this game becomes.

Fantastic Factory builder. There are truly no limits and no stress. This is the perfect factory builder.

I put a couple hours into it, might play it some more. Looking forward to see what else is to come.

Going to do a full review, but I'll put a checklist first so people looking to buy can get the gist of what they want.

The graphics, sounds, and survival elements are beautiful in this game. The menu/server select menus could use some serious work, but other than that the game looks amazing.

The mechanics of the game are also very well done. The scent, vision and dietary system they've implemented are what makes this game different than anything I've played. Part of me wishes there was a small tutorial on how they all work, but I'm glad I had to learn it on my own (with the help of google).

The game is still early, and opting into the beta is something everyone should do when they first boot this game up. I'm a little confused why they don't just make the beta the standard game, but they have their reasons. I'm excited to see more Dino's to play as, and what they plan to do to make some of them worth playing as apposed to only playing as carnivores.

I loved this game, I spent a lot of time really quickly playing. If you look at others reviews you can see a pretty standard 20-40 hours of game-play. Once you get far enough into the game, about 15 hours if you play normally; You kind of plateau. You get invested in the "small fires" of the game, fixing happiness, avoiding space-whales and Minotaur's. But the farther you get from your home planet, the more excruciating it is to get supplies. It's not that obtaining supplies is hard, its that figuring out the perfect trade-route to get to different planets becomes a chore. The UI is a little funky when it comes to interplanetary trade too, it uses the same trade routes as the intercontinental trades which gets a little confusing.

I've expressed my biggest problem, and honestly I don't know a solution. I would like if "auto" trade routes were truly auto, but you still have to specify what it needs to trade. If a continent or planet NEEDS tools, and I have a continent with an abundance, why not just have it traded automatically when set to auto?

Like I said, I love the game, its a lot of fun at the beginning and middle, but near the end its just a chore to get anymore done.

I would recommend this game, but at the same time I wouldn't. Its fun, but it gets old.

I've been playing this game since the original release. It's come so far, and is completely different than the first version they put out.

I couldnt recommend a game more than Rust. Everything about it is top tier.

Fun game for a bit, Cars and generally all the controls are buggy and sometimes unresponsive.

Updates:
As of the latest hotfixes and roadmap updates, I cannot recommend this game to anyone. If youre like me, just waiting for the perfect police simulator. This just isnt it... YET. This game is on the right path, with updates about 1-2 times a month. It is not worth buying at its current price, when it says Early access on this title, It really shows.

When to Buy:
Wait for a sale, Wait for more updates before purchasing this game.

In-Game:
Everything just seems off in this one, the driving physics are weird, the AI is clunky and seems like something out of the Gameboy GTA. You are the only law enforcement on the streets unless youre playing online, which is 10x more buggy than singleplayer. The graphics are basic, a lot of areas are just blank, with nothing there. The callouts for every branch will get boring after the first time, because theres only one with the exception of police which has 2 or 3.

Arma 3, where to start with this game. Theres so much in this game its almost hard to give a full review. In all, the game is fantastic, as you can see, ive spent a lot of time in this game. From single player, to online ive spent many days playing this game.

The possibilities of this game are quite endless. The simulation aspect of the game is great, its a great tactical first person shooter. Its also a great, just play around with game. Theres so many workshop addons that make this game even better. And the servers, boy-o-boy the servers. Anything imaginable is possible in this game. If you want a server that is a war simulation, so be it. If you want to play a server where you smuggle drugs, or sell apples, theres a server for it.

The possiblities are endless, especially with friends.

I recommend this game to everyone I know that owns a PC. 10/10.

I was excited to get this game but upon playing it is very dissapointing... almost no realism... driving mechanics are awful, civilians run from you even when you arent interacting with anyone. even if you park your car over a driveway the civilians WALK ON YOUR CAR. what. i know its early developement but seriously?
