What players think
The recurring themes across 300 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Depth in the combat system, depth in the crafting system, and it's challenging because you are gonna die if you are not careful.
You can be an overweight combat medic, a melee proficient electrician with a high metabolism, a weak and brittle botanist, an athlete with insomnia; There are many different combinations you can choose from.
The story contained in Neo Scavenger will most assuredly be a driving force behind your desire to continue multiple play sessions to discover more about what happened to this once populated land.
Although its steep learning curve, unforgiving permadeath, and minimalist presentation may discourage players looking for a more accessible experience, those willing to embrace its demanding design will discover an unforgettable adventure filled with tension, discovery, and rewarding strategic gameplay.
I was hesitant due to the low res, pixel graphics, but man am I glad I took a chance on this!
Sound: The music and sound effects although they may not present themselves often are perfectly crafted to create a tense and fitting atmosphere.
