*** EDIT (2021) ***
Looks like there is still life in this game after all. Have been playing since the new updates and it looks like much of what was originally there has been nerfed but this seems better optimised than my last review and more playable. switch back to a recommended review.

*** EDIT (2020) ***
So, checking back after so many years to see this has been abandoned by the Devs, I'm switching to a thumbs down. Even No Mans Sky was able to redeem itself. This is just sad. Devs probably spent all their earnings and ran out of interest. This is another reason not to support EA games until they're finally cooked. Shame on the devs for still charging money for this game.


*** Original Review (2016) ***
It scratches the itch left behind from the NoMansSky debacle.
I’ve only played single player so far. It’s “The Martian”(film) meets ARK. Can be a little clunky feeling at times.
Moody atmosphere, especially at night. Can get a little creepy with things lurking in the dark.
Given enough support, this game could be polished into a nice gem.
4 potatoes out of 5.
