UNKNOWN REGION

Unknown Region is definitely worth the price! I'm going to keep playing this and building up my level and base and i highly recommend other people play this game. I paid the full 15 dollar price tag for this game and i feel that it's worth at least just a little more and this game is WELL worth the price. While it seems to have a rather simplistic main menu that doesn't really bother me at all to much. The simplistic design is easy to pick up and navigate even in the control menu. Now the actual gameplay when starting a new world. You spawn in the world with a set of actual clothing and gear near a rather well stocked area. It doesn't hold your hand with a tutorial so it's not too difficult to figure out what you can do but when first starting and all you have is some clothes, a bow and a wooden mace it's a bit tricky to figure things out. Well, the 4 meters you have to keep track of are self explanatory. Health, hydration, stamina and hunger. Eat to fill your hunger, drink to fill your Hydration, rest to fill your stamina and use bandages, med-kits and such to heal yourself. Seriously the names alone should tell you how those four things work and they're literally in the bottom left corner of the screen so they aren't hard to keep track of. That's really it, They could look prettier or be set up a different way kind of like Don't starve Together or Fallout New Vegas Survival Mode with stats on how which food and drink or medicine will make "this' much of an impact to help those meters fill. While their is no tutorial for the game the game itself actually does a pretty decent job of making you use your common sense to figure out how to play it. Can i drink this water? Not from the creek. Can i drink this water? From the standing pond of course! if you have an empty bottle you can fill it. How can i cut down this tree? Well you can't punch it down. You have to craft an AXE to chop it down. Can i mine this ore deposit? Not without a pick-axe you can't. The game subtly forces you to think on your feet especially for the resources. You can search cars and local areas have random re-spawning items that you can go back to search and they may either have what you want or something you didn't realize you needed. Starting a base is rather difficult but that is how it would be in a setting like this and the difficulty spike is a bit larger than what it should reasonably be but that doesn't take away from what i was able to experience the short time i played it. I'm going to come back to this game more and more through the time i own this. Now onto the gripes or improvements that can be made. A toggleable tutorial in the options menu for one would be fine for people who don't like using their brains to figure things out. So when the tutorials box is checked when starting a new world a simple Popup UI that lets you click an Okay button would be just enough. When you first start a new world a simple tutorial could pop up telling the player to "press TAB" to open the character inventory and give a brief explanation on how the clothing, weight and crafting system works in that order. It would make it easier for people to understand and get a better grip on the gameplay. The tutorial can also briefly explain how when an item is crafted it can be placed in the hotbar for easy access and switching between them. Now the enemies in the game are actually very well made and i enjoy the designs of the mutants and how some other people will just randomly attack you for resources. The animals that are in the area actually fit rather well because they would have free reign after humans are gone. The mutant designs as i said are just amazing and very well designed as i LOVE the glowing parts and pieces to them and the sounds they make actually make me shudder in fear and i PRAY they didn't see my character. It's honestly a breath of fresh air from what everyone else gives out in a "survival craft" type game. Now for combat, While clunky and very simplistic with both animations and execution it is honestly not really a big deal at all for me as i did read the store page and it's one man working on this whole game. The combat is fine as is for what it's worth BUT the only problem i've had is the hit box on certain enemies such as snakes. The hitboxes for certain things in the world are also a bit off such as smaller trees and ponds where you can drink. The one that i'm more focused on here is the combat Hitboxes as it seems you can be hit from any direction which is a good thing as that's how you taking damage should be but animals such as Boars and snakes that i've run into i have a hard time trying to smack them because of the hitbox and it's a chore to land a blow on them. Despite this setback it is possible to hit them and i've enjoyed the feeling i get when i beat them. It's not a "oh god it's finally dead" kind of feeling as it's more of an "I freakin did it!" kind of feeling. Now the whole finding your own dead body after you first die is honestly something i never thought i'd see at all EVER. it is such an awesome feature PLEASE DO NOT CHANGE THAT! i love having to go and actually loot all my old gear from the corpse of my previous life! It is such a fun thing to experience and it's just fun to do. Now the whole system for looting that body is also perfect as i wouldn't change a thing. The item you pick up from the body such as the clothes ALSO bringing with it the items that were stored in those clothes? that is a damn good feature and i don't want that to change at all. Now the only problem i have with this feature is the fact the bodies disappear after such a short time in the world and that includes HOSTILE NPC's or Mutants and animals. I spent 10 minutes fighting a sniper knowing one hit from me will kill him and one hit from him will kill me and when i landed that blow i was ecstatic and ran to him. As soon as i got there i had to spend 20 seconds fighting a snake that came up and kill it so i could safely loot the hostile NPC and when that 20 seconds was up the NPC's body disappeared and I lost my chance at a weapon. Sad to say a BEAR heard the commotion and decided i looked tasty! I was crushed and eaten and i traveled all the way back to my corpse and got my stuff back. Now the last gripe i have is the crafting itself. The whole thing about the needed resources is just fine. I love it and would change absolutely NOTHING about it. It's perfect for the amount of items you need to craft to get certain things such as equipment and luxuries like beds. The thing that i'm more wanting to change is the crafting time for certain items. For smaller items like Arrows, nails and more of the smaller items i can see why it's such a low time for crafting. But the larger items take way to long to craft and that 30 seconds i'm stuck hiding building a bed to set my spawn point is kind of tedious and i feel that cutting that to about 12 or 14 seconds would be better. Same for the other larger items. The time is literally the only thing i have a problem with but that is only MY preference as i'm just impatient haha. Once more i HIGHLY recommend this game for anyone wanting an actual challenge in a "survival craft" genre game. It has a good spike of difficulty when first starting out but learning the UI, the crafting and weight systems and search functions are easy, fun and once you get it down the game opens up to be a lot of fun. I haven't really run into any glitches besides the janky hitboxes but again that's understandable as it's one person making this game. Now i'm going to back into my world and continue trying to build up my base! keep up the amazing work my dude.

Love the game so far I have 8 Hours play time I am surprised the game is only in early access no flaws in play except car flipping that is being fixed by the developer asap honestly I think this is on its way to becoming great excitedly waiting for next game updates.

This is a very interesting game. yes, it laggs. and is almost impossible to survive.. its afterall, in EARLY ACCESS, right? but you should respect these devs. they are trying to fix the game, it isnt easy with no income. show some respect! they need to pay rent, bills, groceries.. and try to keep it all together! yes, they drink whiskey and occassionally may buy junk food, i mean, its not easy trying to please all the GAMERS out there. if it ever gets fixed, no lag or whatever.. it could be possibly one of the best survival games online! think about it, but.. please give these people some support. thanks for every dime u spent and GAME ON! devs need to charge more money for this great piece of WORK! 5 stars!

Joguei em live (early access) e confesso que o tempo passou voando! Amo jogos survival e, em Unknown Region, vivi o simples com várias referências a games de sobrevivência/terror, como Rust, The Forest e, creia, um pet tank sensacional à la Blair Witch! Gamei <3

absolutely amazing survival game yes there are some bugs and things that need to be fixed like movment the the hips when cutting tree or mining but definately nothing game break SHOUT OUT!!! to the developer awesome job PLEASE KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK N DONT ABANDON THIS GAME BECAUSE I WOULD REALLY LOVE TO SEE WHERE THIS GAME GOES N ALSO ARE THERE GONNA BE ANY MORE UPDATES OR CONTENT COMING FOR THIS GAME ??

It is a waste of life and sense to write down how bad this game is. Dear author, just don't make games at all, please, and refund all purchases for people that already bought this thing.

This is a great game. Survive against mutated humans, creature, bears, wolves etc. The crafting system is incredible, very elaborate & well thought out, also with the newly added trader system. Work out how to craft scrap metal to make the game easier to survive. Building is enjoyable also but you can live in the RV at the spawn location & place objects inside. Congratulations to the Developer Sydney Games for producing this game.

As a newbie to gaming, I am so happy with this game. It's so much fun to play, solos great but its heaps of fun with friends. Love the overall abandoned feel of the game, its like I'm there. I"m so addicted already. Game survival guides very good and handy. I would love to see developers implement a female character. Male character has a very cute bunny tail, lol. Would recommend game guys :-)

Might seem harsh. but for a game made by 1 person it isn't bad. It is limited to a small map with clunky mechanics and hardly anything to do. Many Buildings have 1 piece of loot and some don't have anything at all. This is not worth $15 or $7.50. This should be $1-$2 max.
