If you are trying to find eerie bootleg Minecraft, don't even bother. This "game" has as much value as every cheap google play knock off.
I’m 35 now, and looking back, one of the most special parts of my relationship with my dad, Mark, has been the time we spent bonding over a game. Growing up, I was adopted into a family with two brothers, and it wasn’t always easy finding common ground with my dad. When my psychiatrist suggested the game to help with my anxiety, I didn’t expect it to lead to something so meaningful. I started playing, and before long, I had put in 78 hours within a week. It was a bit of a surprise to my dad, who was struggling to find ways to connect with me, especially since I was often out with friends or watching YouTube. Determined to bridge that gap, Mark decided to create a Steam account and get the game himself. Even though the multiplayer feature was a bit confusing and we had trouble figuring out how to host a game, the effort he put in meant the world to me. Those moments of trying to play together, despite the technical issues, brought us closer and created memories I’ll always cherish.

I do not understand what it has to do with LSD Dream Simulator. The music freaked me out at one point, as it felt like an RPG Maker horror game song. Other than that, I guess it is quite meditative and eerie to walk around. I really don't think there's anything here. The description hinting at a mystery and the, frankly confusing early access description that doesn't appear to line up with the game, make me think there's something else going on.

We have Minecraft at home.
Самый, ♥♥♥♥♥, криповый клон Майнкампфа, который я только видел. Текстурки будто попал в страшный сон или в потусторонний мир из Биттл джуса. Чувство тревоги, страха и безысходности подкрепляет самый криповый саундтрек, который я только слышал. Нет, реально, сами попробуйте. Мне просто захотелось залезть на скалу и разбиться ♥♥♥♥♥, как только заиграла та криповая композиция, напоминающая музыку из психоделических малобюджетных фильмов начала и середины 90-х годов. Ощущения от музыки были будто сейчас что-то вылезет из пещеры и сделает тебе неприятно в физическом и психологическом планах, но в итоге ничего так и не происходит, только пустота и колоритные песчаные горы, напоминающие животных (ну или их останки). В общем, если автор не сделает из этой технодемки survival horror с загадками и страшилами, а просто оставит более криповый клон майнкрафта, то весь потенциал проекта, которого он достиг на этой стадии, будет благополучно канут в лету
It's like walking around a weird early version of minecraft. I think this is a really pretty game; i took like 6 screenshots of my base. I don't know how much there is in this game, but just really enjoyed walking around. Worth checking-out.
i lowk thought it was just a minecraft fan game and i liked it, for the first few days and nights i heard wind and it was weird, i was scared but a few more nights later in the game i saw two eyes looking at me and i went up to it and died. so this is like a minecraft horror mod type game so its great please get it
Крайне неплохой клон майнкрафта. Игра может затянуть. Из минусов могу отметить только редкие вылеты, некоторые треки и малое количество контента. В принципе рекомендую!
Лол, тут даже мобов нет... Тупой крафт, при старте сразу ночь в которой ничего не ясно и не видно, настроек нет, выкинуть предметы нельзя... боже, зачем это фуфло сделано?? зря потратил время! https://youtu.be/QMmqx-xAERM
