The best survival simulator on the platform as of writing this review, hands down.

The presentation and artstyle is great, the experience is wonderful, and the developers are good and offer free updates without ever asking for anything extra; which is great because the difficulty and learning curve of TLD is exactly the kind of thing a larger developer would shake you down for advantages to sell you.

You have to work to survive and you will be punished dearly for being an idiot. I love it.

There are a couple of immersive 'survivalist' things that bug me (like I can't scrap the millions of carpets lying around for fabric unless they're draped off something, I can't insulate my clothes with stuffing, reading a whole book on survivalism doesn't make you much better at making fires, I only make roasts and no soups even though it's super inefficient, etc); but all in all there is no experience like it. It's an indulgence and puts 'fantasy' survival games of the genre (Like The Forest and its clones) in their place on a lower peg.
