My Time at Sandrock

Like a really cosy whimsical version of fallout if it was a life sim. You don't have to fight the mutants, just be friends! The romances are cute, and I like that they're not "Partner achieved, never talk to them again", but rather, the different stages have different interactions, quests and scenes. Dragging them around by the hand was fun too, so many muppet elbows. The main disappointment I had with the entire game was that they kept showing off this cool old ruined tower in the center of town in every loading screen, artwork, etc and they don't let you inside! They didn't even talk about it or reference it specifically. Unless it was in a cooper monologue and I fell asleep.

滑沙比赛太蠢了

wow such an upgrade from my time at portia, many features that help player a lot. unfortunately it still got some minor bugs f.e u cant move ur screen like idk why its just randomly and sometimes the person that talking doesnt have an appearance so yeah but its still a great game i alr spent 8 hours on my first day playing this game ^-^

It's fun! If you liked My Time at Portia (and most other life sim type games), you'll like My Time at Sandrock. The character designs are charming, the voice acting is good, the dialogue had me bursting out laughing multiple times, I enjoyed the twists in the storyline, and I appreciated how they slowly unfolded an expansive & lively world so there were tons of new places to explore without feeling completely overwhelmed. I will say that I encountered several minor bugs, but none of them were catastrophic fails - though I did miss out on a few story quests when characters would bug out into the walls of a pre-built catalog house, for instance, or sometimes controller bindings didn't work and I had to use my mouse & keyboard. That said, the auto-save system is quite generous, so I could've reloaded my file to retry for a better outcome on the bugged quests, but it just didn't feel worth it at the time. Overall, it's a pretty long game - I spent 150 hours completing the full main storyline, and tacked on an additional 24 hours to grind for the final achievements.

Après plus de 130h de jeu, franchement quelle expérience. Ce jeu est tellement addictif que je n’ai pas réussi à m’arrêter pendant mes vacances d’été. L’histoire est vraiment bien écrite, les personnages sont attachants, et les romances sont incroyableeeees. On finit tellement par s’attacher à eux qu’il arrive même de culpabiliser face à certains choix... C’est rare qu’un jeu arrive à créer ce genre de lien avec ses personnages. Ce que j’ai adoré, c’est tout ce qu’on peut faire, améliorer sa maison, élever des animaux, créer sa ferme, fabriquer des objets, récolter des minerais, explorer, combattre des monstres, évoluer les points de compétences/établi, choisir ses vêtements, les sorties, les rencards… Il y a toujours quelque chose à faire. Et surtout, on voit réellement la ville évoluer grâce à nos efforts, ce qui rend chaque amélioration gratifiante. Même après des dizaines d’heures, j’avais toujours envie de découvrir de nouvelles choses. C’est un jeu rempli de contenu avec beaucoup de charme. Je sais que les graphismes peuvent ne pas plaire à tout le monde, mais honnêtement, il ne faut pas passer à côté de ce jeu uniquement pour ça. Derrière son style particulier, c'est un univers incroyable. J’ai vraiment adoré mon expérience et j’ai déjà hâte de découvrir leur prochain jeu, My Time at Evershine. En attendant, je recommande vivement ce jeu à tous ceux qui aiment les jeux cozy avec de la gestion et une vraie histoire !!

I played the life out of My Time at Portia. Joined Kickstarter specifically for My Time at Sandrock. The devs have been amazingly up front with their struggles, timelines, and the development process. But that's probably not what you care about. Sandrock is a worth successor to Portia, even if it does have the occasional bug or minor issue. Nothing game-breaking so far. I play with my wife, and the way they've set up co-op might feel limiting to some (only 4 players, it seems), the fact that you create a persistent server is awesome because it means I'm not the host of the server and neither is my wife. We can play together or separate, however we want. That's rare and amazing for this type of game. Like Portia, Sandrock has so many different systems and things to do, but it never feels rushed or crowded. You might be a bit overwhelmed at first, but you'll figure out the flow of things in no time. There are events that feature minigames, relationships to build, quests, hunts, and commissions to complete. The neatest part of the game is that you're actually helping Sandrock grow into a thriving city and you can see it as you complete projects. Can't recommend this enough, and go get Portia if you haven't played it. If I recall, Portia is single-player only, but it's worth a play regardless.

Gra bardzo miło mnie zaskoczyło. Na początku kompletnie nie ogarniałam, jak zdobywać niektóre surowce, przez co jedną z pierwszych misji robiłam bardzo długo. Byłam już zniechęcona i nawet myślałam o porzuceniu gry, ale postanowiłam poszukać kilku porad w internecie. To bardzo mi pomogło i od tego momentu rozgrywka stała się znacznie przyjemniejsza. Gra ma ciekawą fabułę, mnóstwo zadań pobocznych i głównych, dzięki czemu potrafi wciągnąć na wiele godzin. Jeśli wykonuje się zarówno główną fabułę, jak i misje poboczne, jest naprawdę długa. Największym minusem jest dla mnie brak polskiej wersji językowej. Dialogów jest ogrom, więc osoby, które słabiej znają angielski, mogą mieć problem z pełnym zrozumieniem historii i rozmów z postaciami. Mimo tego zdecydowanie polecam tę grę – warto dać jej szansę, nawet jeśli początek wydaje się trochę przytłaczający.

Cute gatherer/builder game, the story is interesting so far.
