Sheltered Quick Pros & Cons


Pros:

  • Good concept that is simple enough for anyone to play and easily learn
  • Great feeling of recource management and strategy of them
  • Great depth in terms of items, locations, crafting and upgrading.
  • Active developers who actually READ READ community feedback and TAKE ACTION . Ive seen many ideas put into the game which were thought of by random players.
  • (again) Developers that look at feedback and try to balance out things in the game (eg a recource being too scarce or too abundant)
  • Awesome feeling of receving an update which implements things that you just cant wait to try out.
  • Generally a good strategy game of survival which was in my opinion well developed.


Cons:

  • Sometimes the game screen just freezes and the user can see either a black screen, the desktop background, or even a still frame of the game. However the game continues to run (you can hear the sound effects when you interact with it). This happens TOO many times for me to ignore.
  • The lack of a pause button is somewhat annoying at times, however it could ruin the game in terms of realism (you wouldnt freeze time to plan out a strategy against raids for example)
  • The lack of a save button without needing to exit your game... This one is frustrating. With the screen freeze bug i mentioned earlier, saving is crutial, as an alt-f4 could loose many in-game hours of gameplay. A hotkey for saving would be nice.
  • Only 3 save slots... Meaning you can only have a maximum of 3 shelters saved (unless you tweak with game files)
  • You cant save the same game in 2 diffrent slots. You want to start a risky expedition and wanna save or backup? Nope, forget that (unless you tweak the game files, once again...).
  • No steam workshop. Devs, PLEASE implement steam workshop for this game.
  • And finally, the price... €12.99 IS a litte expensive for a game like this. If you catch it on a sale (Got it for €1.98, wow) then i would 100% buy this game.

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS GAME IS UPDATED CONSTANTLY, BUGS WILL EVENTUALLY DISAPPEAR


Final Score:
8/10
