Forager

Genre: Base Building

I've played the main story 1 time and given it an average score of 4 (out of 4).

At its heart, it's an incremental game. Super cookie clicker. The exploration and slow expansion mechanic is neat. I like getting skills. There are some dungeons and puzzles, but they're a little too shallow for my taste. It also hurt the power fantasy, since everything was so simple that doing marginally more damage wasn't a compelling reason to continue. There's no logistical management like Factorio, which I think would have hooked me a little more. Tons to do though, there's definitely something for everyone. Nice art and music. Cool combination of things.

Did not roll credits.
