It's easy to pick up and put down- I am not good at videogames, this isn't an exception, but it's fun to play, and losing can be AWFUL but it lets me learn to take risks, and thats been helping me over all bc i play games cautiously- you can't always do that and I need to be pushed out of that zone- I like this game for that. I can take risks and Lose, but it helps me prepare for that the next time. each time I play, I can try and use how I lost last time to try and avoid that outcome. It's predictable enough, and plenty of times it still shakes you up. it's really fun!

Great fun, bit addictive. Have to delete it from my computer during uni semester. Shipwrecked DLC is my favourite. Even though it's a survival game it's quite calming and peaceful, feels like escaping the rat race to go live on a beautiful tropical island. Hamlet is great too but the amount of hours you need to put in to make your house nice and make everything work is too much for me. I am bad at video games so I like to play on easy mode, in this game you can customise how easy the easy mode is and in what ways is it easier. I mostly just give myself loads of extra berry bushes. And extra bees. Extra bees sounds bad but there are several benefits you will find out if you play this game. I love interacting with the monkeys, and building my little camp in the sand and protecting myself from the world outside.

Hands down, the absolute best, most addictive game I've ever played. The tension between having to explore in order to learn how to do new things and not wanting to die makes you actually care about each decision you make, and dying HURTS. Just don't look up "how to do stuff" on the internet, it will ruin the game for you. The whole point is to have to learn how to do things by yourself. And die trying. And curse a lot. And restart with great vengeance and furious anger.

Don't Starve is an extraordinary survival game with unique art style and gameplay, it always manages to surprise me with something new. One of the few games i bought on all platforms, and I'll never get over it. P.S: All the expansion packs absolutely worth it and will give you different experience. This includes Don't Starve Together which allows players to play with friends or other people
