The Great Plague Exodus

[h1] Escape from the plague [/h1] A challenging survival simulator. [h1] STORY [/h1] History is written from the decisions made by the player. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2831893229 [h1] GAMEPLAY [/h1] The gameplay is the management of family survival in an epidemic. We are invited to make certain decisions that will have consequences. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2831893105 Consider the pros and cons of the game, sum up. [h1] PROS: [/h1] + Nice graphics. + Good music and sound accompaniment. + Potentially (if you manage to play) an interesting plot. [h1] CONS: [/h1] - In my opinion - the complexity is artificially overestimated. My heroes just died and there was no way to win. At the same time, almost 30% of achievements were obtained in 11 minutes. https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2831893303 [h1] CONCLUSIONS [/h1] Controversial survival simulator. On the one hand, it's well made. On the other hand, it is too difficult to play.

Pros: - Didn't work for me on Linux, messaged the dev, he fixed it in 20 minutes, good stuff. - Good visuals and aesthetics - The game is fun and doesn't play itself, you need to play a couple of runs before you get the hang of what to do (which I like, not too easy) Cons: - Way to expensive, wait for a sale - Unfourtunately a lot of bugs even after the day one patch, sometimes you can't go to the next game, some dialouge gets show twice in a row, game crashed when everyone died, and one time I could keep playing even if everyone died XD Wait for a sale and another patch and you'll get a decent game. 6/10

I want to say I like this game, I really do... It's almost like Oregon Trail - Black Plague Edition. But there are so many bugs in it. Ending day when in a city sometimes crashes the whole game, can't start the game with the default names, poor tutorial, no real breakdown in what options do when in the city, and unlimited food in cities it seems. In the first 2-3 cities I didnt spend any coin because I sat at 1 food the whole time. Sometimes text in the boxes dont appear and the random events are... well... random response as well. Going on trails and not preparing by buying food is actually cheaper than buying in cities (Cities are 8 per food, trail is 30 for 5 food when you run out... so do the math...) It has promise if it was more polished. The art style is kind of lacking. Again. I really want to like this, but I cant recommend it.

Crushed it in an hour. I enjoyed it, but it's a little overpriced.

If I had to best sum up this title- it'd be 'The Oregon Trail- Bubonic Plague Edition'. Essentially, you're tasked with navigating a family across the European countryside, doing your best to navigate work, food, and the physical and mental well-being of a small family. ..So, Tricky stuff- essentially. That said- I found it less daunting then Trail, given the 'Choose your family + Career' element at the beginning means you can -finely- tailor a group that's more than ready to blaze a trail.

Only get this on *steep* sale. Did I enjoy this game? Yes. But my personal guideline is that a game costs either $1 per hour of gameplay, or that the experience makes me think about it for a while after I'm done with it. This game does neither. After 1 failed trial run, I managed to completely ace it. As in, there was no feasible way I could die, no challenge, and certainly no real replayability. I didn't spend time getting farther and farther until I finally finished the game. Just one trial run, and then the next I was a god. Was it fun being a god? Yes. But one hour of gameplay for a game that is a little over $7 is not a good look. This is only a little bit above a flash game, and is actually lower in quality than some of the more extensive flash games I've played. I have spent so little time on this game that I could still refund it. That is how little there is here.

Had the opportunity to play this game on stream. For an early beta, I think it's absolutely wonderful! It gives off Oregon Trails and text-based adventure vibes, which I absolutely love. The fact that it's historical fiction is a bonus, too! The only thing I would like to mention is that sometimes the options during random events show as blank text boxes, and the drop-down menu for the entertainment doesn't always show the options. These are all easy fixes, and didn't really affect the game play for me as I find random/blind choices to add to the experience (just a personal opinion, I know you need to make educated decisions in a game like this). Overall, I think it was wonderful and fun. I am terrible at games like this, but I look forward to playing it again and seeing the final release!

Really well thought out game. I like how the game changes depending on how you start out in life. Straight away you are drawn in and there are lots of different ways to play. I like how you need to think about each character you have while keeping an eye on the plague. Makes it very challenging at times! I would recommend this game, another cracker from Priory Games!

Let's suck out the poison first: this game is overpriced for how buggy is. But it scratches that old Oregon Trail itch, and it has heart. If the patches continue (and they should), this is a nice little pick-me-up to play now and again. The glitches seem to be the chosen activity changing randomly from time to time, and occasional freezes. It's not unplayable, and there's enough little touches here and there to keep each short playthrough fresh. Well-written, and a surprising variety of art for the amount of items and choices you can make. Combine with an underused setting, and you've got the makings of a hidden gem that just needs some polish. Buy it on sale, and keep an eye on Priory Games.

I am really happy with this game, I loved it! The artwork is great so is the soundtrack. It is so nice that we can create our own family and try to keep them alive (which I didn't succeed at first but working on it haha). Really fun and chill, would highly recommend.
