Steam review snapshots
Good Idea for a open world survival game.I was playing single player which should be stand alone.The game is buggy but lots of games are buggy when they first come out.☐ Dark Souls —{Grind}— ☐ Nothing to grind ☐ Only if u care about leaderboards/ranks ☐ Isnt necessary to progress ☐ Average…Why it fits
Check it if you want action, adventure filtered by single-player.
