ASTRONEER
Astroneer is an adventurous simulator game, in which you get to explore outer space trying to survive in harsh environments by means of gathering vital resources. You can download Astroneer if you have a 64-bit processor and Windows 7 or higher.
Graphics 5/5
We definitely liked the picture, and even though the graphics are cartoonish, exploring colorful planets is sheer joy. It’s a visual treat for senses, which is enhanced by soothing music. Everything seems larger than it really is, but this gives Astroneer a truly distinctive aesthetic look.
Gameplay 5/5
The solar system of Astroneer includes seven colorful planets that are uniquely styled. The terrain looks strikingly bold and beautiful, but we can say that some places are inviting while some lands submerge you into a darker and more ominous atmosphere.
You are to play as a lonesome astronaut who has just several tools to use in order to survive. The planet is mostly devoid of life, and you aren’t given any objectives. You’re encouraged to explore the unknown land and take advantage of various useful resources, which lie on the surface and beneath it. The progress of the astronaut is defined by how far you manage to expand your new-built home on the alien planet.
You are limited by oxygen reserves in your backpack. You can extend your supply by such a clever move as leaving a blue trail, which shows you the way back home for the recharge.
As you start building more in your new home, your options will expand as you progress. If in the beginning you will gather resources on foot, but with time, you can craft a tractor. You’ll be able to carry a whole train of trailers, which will allow you to get more valuable resources during only one expedition.
We’d love to mention in our Astroneer review how cool the soundtrack is. It’s even possible to download it, but you’ll need to pay for it.
Controls 4/5
We didn’t find any difficulties with controlling the motions of the character, but it will take some time to understand what controls to use because of the great number of tools that can be applied. You might feel slightly aimless during the initial hours of playing, but this makes the game intriguing.
Replay Value 4/5
You will definitely want to get more of this game if you’re one of those who like soothing and light-hearted titles. The visuals are alluring, and the unexpectedness of the exploration adventure may make you play non-stop for hours.
The Bottom Line
Visuals are great and the whole idea is pretty much unique. Inventory management is clever, and despite some minor technical hiccups, you can truly immerse into the atmosphere of outer space exploration. We liked that there are 13 supported languages, which means that developers took it all seriously and tried their best to create the product, which is worth the attention of gamers from around the world.
Survival mechanics are easy to grasp;
The exploration of open spaces is an exciting experience.
Multiplayer is glitchy at times.
