Very interesting take on a survival strategy game! It's challenging, but rewarding when you get into it. I noticed that this game has hundreds of reviews that don't appear on the main page. It looks like the reviews were hidden by Steam when the game switched from free to paid, and I almost overlooked it as a result. I hope you don't make the same mistake- the game is definitely worth a try! 😊
