Cons
Con Endlessly boring
It's a pixel survival game where you craft traps, gather resources, fight monsters and repeat! Well, nothing more to that. Once you've played a couple of games or two the game eventually bores you.
Con Design is lacking
More thought, design and production value could have been added to the game to give it a better polished feel, sadly it is not the case as most aspects pass as just serviceable.
