Dec. 2024

Above Snakes is a fun little open world sandbox survival game, with the unique twist being the tile-based world generation. It’s easy to figure out, and good in short bursts. The early game is great. The tile-based concept is satisfying, and the progression of exploring, crafting, and unlocking tiles feels rewarding. Mid-game, though, things start to feel a bit stale. The early food options stay the best all the way through. Resource gathering becomes a chore, having to run to other sides of the map. The crafting and base-building are fine. Not too complicated or annoying, forgiving inventory system, but nothing to write home about either. Thew story/writing are... really bad (possibly even a bit problematic?). The story surrounds Native American culture, but is kinda lazy and tone deaf. 100% in 16.8 hours.

(6/10) This a fun little crafting/survival game with its own unique spin on the genre. The story is very simple and there is a ton of grinding to do, but it is still worth grabbing it while it is on sale. ---{ Graphics }--- ☐ You forget what reality is ☐ Beautiful ☑ Good ☐ Decent ☐ Bad ☐ Don‘t look too long at it ☐ MS-DOS ---{ Gameplay }--- ☐ Very good ☑ Good ☐ It's just gameplay ☐ Mehh ☐ Watch paint dry instead ☐ Just don't ---{ Audio }--- ☐ Eargasm ☐ Very good ☑ Good ☐ Not too bad ☐ Bad ☐ I'm now deaf ---{ Audience }--- ☑ Kids ☑ Teens ☑ Adults ☑ Grandma ---{ PC Requirements }--- ☐ Check if you can run paint ☐ Potato ☑ Decent ☐ Fast ☐ Rich boi ☐ Ask NASA if they have a spare computer ---{ Game Size }--- ☐ Floppy Disk ☐ Old Fashioned ☑ Workable ☐ Big ☐ Will eat 10% of your 1TB hard drive ☐ You will want an entire hard drive to hold it ☐ You will need to invest in a black hole to hold all the data ---{ Difficulty }--- ☐ Just press 'W' ☑ Easy ☐ Easy to learn / Hard to master ☐ Significant brain usage ☐ Difficult ☐ Dark Souls ---{ Grind }--- ☐ Nothing to grind ☐ Only if u care about leaderboards/ranks ☐ Isn't necessary to progress ☑ Average grind level ☐ Too much grind ☐ You'll need a second life for grinding ---{ Story }--- ☐ No Story ☐ Some lore ☑ Average ☐ Good ☐ Lovely ☐ It'll replace your life ---{ Game Time }--- ☐ Long enough for a cup of coffee ☐ Short ☐ Average ☑ Long ☐ To infinity and beyond ---{ Price }--- ☐ It's free! ☑ Worth the price ☐ If it's on sale ☐ If u have some spare money left ☐ Not recommended ☐ You could also just burn your money ---{ Bugs }--- ☑ Never heard of ☐ Minor bugs ☐ Can get annoying ☐ ARK: Survival Evolved ☐ The game itself is a big terrarium for bugs ---{ ? / 10 }--- ☐ 1 ☐ 2 ☐ 3 ☐ 4 ☐ 5 ☑ 6 ☐ 7 ☐ 8 ☐ 9 ☐ 10

July 2024

Not going to down vote because it's well put together, I just don't think it is for me. Earning and adding map tiles is a neat idea, but after playing this game, I found out I prefer to have my map already made. Could be for some, just not for me.

Love the unique world building aspect of Above Snakes. Never saw anything like that in any other game. The survival aspects are mild. The game is a good fit for cozy and chill players.

April 2024

I enjoyed every moment of this game. The story, the concept of tile world expansion, the combat, bounty hunting, base building, resource gathering, I loved it all. However, I can also see why some people didn't like this game. It's very grindy. You have to constantly grind and gather materials in order to progress in the story. They don't really tell you how to get most of the items either. I got stuck multiple times and had to look up how to get the items so I could keep progressing. Some things are just a pain to get. I spent probably a few hours shaking trees for feathers to make arrows. 80% of the time you would just get worthless branches. Inventory management can be a pain too. When I first started I thought the backpack space was very generous, but items only stack up to 30 before they start taking up another slot. In the late game this began to become an issue. I would constantly have to fast travel back and forth to my base to drop off items. I also encountered a handful of bugs/glitches as well which required reloading the game. About 50% of the time the game would stop responding and crash when I attempted to go back to the main menu. My main gripe with this game is the cost. The price of this game seems a bit high for what you are getting. Once you finish the story and upgrade your house and all your tools/weapons, there really isn't anything left to do. It took me 17.6 hours to finish everything in the game, including all achievements. I wish they would add more content to the game so there was more to do once the quests are completed.
