eek!

They updated the mobile app so you can't use all the character skins the host has unlocked. Why did I buy all the extra characters if I can't even use them when I play the game?

You should probably get Motorsport Manager instead. This game's simple, repetitive, and really not optimized very well. As an F1 fan, I like the draw of the real life teams, drivers, and tracks, but this first version of the game isn't worth the price. Fingers crossed they take our feedback and polish F1 Manager 23 a little more.

I'm not that into card games, but I'm having a great time with this one so far. Once you get a feel for the rules, deck building and raking up buffs/sigils is a lot of fun. I only wish there was an easier way to get your custom cards back in the beginning after a new run starts. I've only seen the same one repeated while playing the first part even though I've created quite a few.

The way the game progresses is pretty jarring, but each part or "act" of the game has it's own interesting flavor and charm. The less you look up before you play, the better. I'd also say this game is more creepy than scary or horror, so big babies are welcome to play lol. I'd give it a 3 (maaaaaybe 4)/10 on the scary scale if that helps anyone make up their mind about buying.

Even though this game is still in beta and has been for a bit, it's still one of the best arcade simulators I've played. Mostly modern arcade games but all of them play really nicely and are exactly like their real life counter. The recent updates to the game have made huge expansions to the world and the available games, so it's even worth the purchase before full release in my opinion. Shows a lot of promise for the full game.

Got milk? Not anymore...

By far my favorite game I own. I've been with this project since almost the start, so it's been great to watch it grow into the game it is now. That being said, as someone who waited so long for the story mode, I was slightly disappointed with what they managed to actually make. Still, an excellent game and worth anyone's money. I love the realism of the survival, no monsters, no ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.


12/2022 UPDATE: The state of this game is honestly sad. I absolutely adored The Long Dark. One of favorite games I've ever bought. But we've been strung along by the devs for too long. The game will never be finished. The new update should've been a standalone sequel or spin-off to the game. I reckon the only reason it's not a separate thing is because it looks bad to release a sequel when you never finished the first game.

Instead of working to complete the game, Hinterland has decided to release an expansion that is also incomplete. Based on Wintermute, I wouldn't expect them to ever finish Tales from the Far Territory. They spent their effort overhauling the game instead of finishing what they started, so why shouldn't we expect them to do the same thing again here?

They also changed the save mechanism so the hundreds of hours players like me have spent since this game first came out are gone. Even from a development perspective they didn't even bother to finish the update before releasing it since it does nothing but crash on launch day. Hinterland is the perfect example of the awful trend in the game industry where companies release games when they're only 80% complete.

What's most frustrating is that this isn't even new ♥♥♥♥ from Hinterland. People have been saying they've been lazy with finishing the content along for years. Turns out those people were right.
