It's one of the best fps games out there in the market.

But as Valve started giving it out for free the number of hackers have increased.

There is no stop to toxic people in this game, the VAC (valve anti cheat) system is "SH!T" and does not do a good job.

They need to stop working on skins and knives and start developing a new anti cheat system which bans cheaters in game.

I do recommend this game but due to the amount of toxic people in the game and hackers I will do the opposite in this review.
Instead I play BF1 and BF3, It's a tons of fun compared to this, there are hackers out there as well but they get banned unlike CS:GO where their VAC (valve allows cheats) ANTI CHEAT system is garbage.

I highly recommend this game to gamer's out there. 8/10

It's worth every penny you pay. The graphics are beautiful and amazing.

It's my first ever survival game and I am hooked.

It's just been a few hours into the game and it's a brilliant and beautiful game.

One of the most amazing audio theme track I have ever heard in a game.

As you start the game the first thing to do did is wear your headset and enjoy the theme song of the game.

It was a bit frustrating at first, as there are no hints, no specifics as to what to do and how to survive except a notebook which keeps getting updated as you try and do new things.

I haven't learned everything, I still have a lot to explore in-game. I have died many times and then learned along the way, Its not an easy game, Its pure survival and learning about how to protect yourself in the wilds.

I will re-write another review to this game after I finish it.



For now I have a few request's for the Creepy Jar team,

I really want to see this game grow and have more potential in future, I request you guys to add in steam achievements and steam game cards to the game so it would boost popularity of the game in the steam market.

If possible please add steam achievements in the next update.

It needs a hell lot of tweaking as it takes a toll on your graphic card and drops fps for no reason.

Waiting for the co-op mode as promised by you guys.

I also request to give us players the option to save the game on the run,
as its gets frustrating to replay everything from the previous save when you die.

Other than that you guys have done a great job.
Thank you for this wonderful adventure.

Dota 2 (Defense of the Ancients)

Now, where do I even start?

Well, let us dive a bit into the history of Dota. Dota was a map mod built for the famous and loftiest trending game, WoW (World of Warcraft). While WoW is still active today but Dota's particular map was so enticing and brilliantly built that it gained fame on much more elevated grounds.

The modded map consisted of two separate teams known as Sentinel (The Radiant) and Scourge (The Dire). The in-game camera holds an isometric top view angle. Radiant's Ancient is on the bottom of the map, Dire's Ancient is on the top. There are three different lanes, Mid, top and bottom, separated by a lengthy river in between. The main objective of both teams is to destroy the Ancient of the other and is the only form of victory. The players need to destroy defensive towers that protect the Ancient. The towers deal a massive amount of damage to heroes standing in their area of effect. Once these towers are down, the team can advance towards the ancient and cripple it down. Players have to farm (gain) gold and gain experience to level up (by slaying enemy heroes and creeps) and purchase items demanded by the situation.

Previously in Dota 1, the two teams had a specific set of Heroes allowed to choose from, but presently Dota 2 has enabled its players the liberty to select any Hero of choice no matter which team side they play on. All Heroes are unique, separated by three primary attributes, Strength, Agility and Intelligence. Every hero is extraordinary and has a specific set of skills and an ultimate ability. The key to winning is in counter picking heroes during hero selection, a coordinative team with exceptional support players and players who understand when to engage in fights and when to back out.

Dota 2 is known to overwhelm its players, is constantly updated and undergoes significant changes when needed. But before starting a new game, new players or experienced players who want to get better need to explore and open the HERO & LEARN tabs, read every bit of information mentioned and complete the in-game tutorials. It will enable and give players a much deeper perceptivity into what impact a hero and its item can create and occasionally turn the tides of the game in your favour.

Thank you for reading, hope you find this review helpful.
