Forager is the popular crafting, exploration and base building game that can best be defined as “the idle game that you want to actively keep playing”. A quirky mix between old school 2D Zelda experiences and modern Minecraft or Terraria-like crafting games that places players into a small piece of land with just a pickaxe and a desire for expansion and exploration. Players can buy procedurally generated lands to uncover secrets, solve puzzles, find dungeons, treasure and forgotten relics and to expand their sprawling bases. Nearly impossible to put down, there is always something to manage or work towards!

Critic Reviews
Screen Rant
By Toby ArguelloForager is great for mobile save some issues.
Screen Rant
By Marcus StewartForager successfully blends addicting harvesting gameplay with solid dungeon crawling, making it a shining gem well worth unearthing.
FNintendo
By Tiago MarafonaForager is a fun 2D open-world simulation game that puts the player on an expansionist endeavour from a small patch of land to an empire...and it does a good job at that. Forager gives a very good feeling of growth and progression to the player while it keeps its mechanics and learning process quick and simple. Pity the game seems to lose some of its performance capacity as the player's empire expands.
Nerdburglars
By Dan HastingsForager starts out incredibly strong. A huge map that is currently hidden. You get a Zelda like feeling that there is a huge adventure ahead. What initially appears to be an exciting game with lots of mysteries to uncover, actually turns out to be an endless loot grind with very little to stimulate your creative needs and sense of adventure. Forager was 5 hours of fun and 5 hours of a steady decline into “is this what I have been working toward?”. The low price tag makes this game well worth the money. It is just a shame there isn't more meat to sink your teeth into.
Geeks Under Grace
By Geeks Under GraceThough entertaining and containing massive potential, Forager's content still struggles to compete with modern gaming giants such as Terraria, and is not quite strong enough to fully stand as it's own genre masterpiece.
