The Survivalists has its flaws - despite the lengthy crafting system and sometimes unnecessarily difficult guessing what the game actually wants from you, it is a pretty good sandbox survival title. I would recommend this game to more than one survivalist and monkey. So if you're a fan of the genre and preferably have another friend on hand to go along with you, The Survivalist is at least worth a try. I give the title a 6/10, as it has its flaws and there is still room for improvement.

What one item would you take with you to a desert island? It’s a question frequently asked and one with many answers. Some say they would bring their mobile phone or their favourite book. But in The Survivalists, the question is as irrelevant as these items would be on a remote island. You will start the game stranded, starving and scared on a beach with no connection to civilization; you know, just like in real life. In this sense, The Survivalists is fairly realistic in its setting. However, the morbidity of being stranded on a desert island is whisked away by a cool breeze, sun-soaked beaches, and a wealth of resources to help you survive in the middle of paradise.

The Survivalists' cute pixelated graphics may be pleasing and the prospect of a procedurally generated island to explore is undeniably tantalising; but the sheer number of incredibly frustrating issues present in this title, especially when coupled with the hefty asking price, ironically make The Survivalists one game you could certainly survive without.

The Survivalists is adrift on a sea of similar titles, struggling to find relevance and survive amid the near endless competition.
