Pros

  • Robinson Crusoe. There is no real 'insanity' mechanic but you will learn the true meaning of despair whiles playing.

  • I really love the Robinsone Crusoe, anything like this available?

Cons

  • Robinson Crusoe, but Crusoe might be really hard
  • Parent context: Robinson Crusoe Reply: I absolutely love Robinson Crusoe, but there is no way I’d consider it to be “not quite as punishing” compared to anything.
  • This game stresses me out. Something about the starvation mechanic that just gets to me 😅
  • I played it 2-3 times in a row and it was ok but didn't grab me.
  • I have bought Robinson crusoe a little while ago, but I only finished the first scénario because I find the game way too hard. I know it's consider one of the best coop game, but I don't really understand why. I also know that the game i...

I have bought Robinson crusoe a little while ago, but I only finished the first scénario because I find the game way too hard. I know it's consider one of the best coop game, but I don't really understand why. I also know that the game is meant to be extremely difficult, but unlike other game that gives you that feeling of wanting to retry, this one just doesn't do it for me.

Robinson Crusoe looks fun, but isn't quite what I'm looking for. I like the surviving on an island theme and I like how much there is to do in Robinson Crusoe but, I don't know. There is just something about it that doesn't seem to scratch the right itch.
