PCIt is no secret that the franchise behind Minecraft has blown up, like to the point where elementary level kids are playing it! However, among those people that don't play Minecraft (and let me tell you, they do exist), they usually have a common...

This is one of those titles that can perfectly sell itself just from the single line description: it's survival-horror in a darkly whimsical world setting. If that single concept has you hooked, buy it. Otherwise, maybe wait for a few content updates to...

Don’t Starve è azzeccatissimo, e gli permette di girare su pc non particolarmente performanti senza troppi sbalzi. Noi l’abbiamo provato su una configurazione di fascia alta e l’unico problema che abbiamo riscontrato è stato un crash in fase di chiusura di una partita, che non si è poi in seguito più ripetuto.

Don’t Starve is by no means a bad trial run for Klei’s new way of working, but it’s a pursuit for those with a wealth of patience and an appetite for pain. Klei may have modelled Hell brilliantly, but that doesn’t mean we want to live there.

An interesting stew of ideas and great presentation can’t make up for a game that goes out of its way to frustrate and discourage its players.

The initial sense of wonder that comes from stumbling upon the surprises and discoveries of this interesting world rapidly fades away when you're stuck tackling the same menial tasks over and over again to regain lost ground for the hundredth time. It's disappointing, because Don't Starve otherwise packs a tremendous amount of charm, depth, and intrigue.

Like most roguelikes, progress in Don't Starve oftentimes feels like a Sisyphean task. Time spent battling shadow creatures, building a farm, and ultimately an inevitable death are rewarding once they get going, but failure to recognize success robs them of meaning, and there's a long period of doldrums at the start of every new game.

Pretty much everything about this game is fantastic, and you’ll undoubtedly fall in love with it. In fact, if you like survival games at all, I’m pretty sure Don’t Starve will be your new addiction.

Te recomendamos que no sólo te dejes llevar por el diseño y las capturas, y que entiendas bien lo que el juego ofrece antes de decidirte por él, porque es uno de esos títulos que, o bien amas, o bien te arrepientes de haber comprado hasta el día del juicio final. Si Miasmata te viene grande, Doodle God te queda pequeño...

The feeling of accomplishment when you manage to fend off countless cruel beasties, survive unrelenting foul weather, and fill your belly is potent. Mastering the wilderness is a difficult road, but from it comes a sense of empowerment. Of course, you could still lose it all in an instant. Such is the fickle nature of Don't Starve.

Don’t Starve starts off slow and punishing and continues to get even harder as you play. Its merciless difficulty coupled with its monotonous gameplay can leave some players feeling frustrated and bored.
