   Well, lookit that; a free game on Epic that isn't from a
   tiny Indie developer or several years old. I'd almost
   forgotten they could give away stuff like that. The game
   itself... it's fine. It's another in a long line of first-
   person survival games (you know the type; start naked and
   build your way up) and -other than its license- isn't
   anything special. If you've ever wanted to play a survival
   game, this one is as good as any. It's a little bit grindy
   (but then, so are all survival games) but the 'mining tech'
   is neat and its limited enough that you won't feel too
   overwhelmed. But if you're already burned out on the genre,
   this game won't reinvigorate your love for it.

You've got a week to grab this one. I think it's at least worth a
look, but make your own decision. Epic isn't paying me... yet. ;-)

By one damned minute sir. Have you no sense of decency?
