    Day One: Garry's Incident is a game, that I would say everyone should just stay away from. Buggy, ugly, and just not enjoyable.

    The Dev's, while they have been working on fixing bugs, the game was released as a full game, it is obviously not deserving of that, it really should have been an early access on Steam. It is an indie title, but this doesn't mean the game should just be released without some testing.

    If you have $20 you would like to blow, go buy something else; you will enjoy it more than this.    … Expand

    Do not buy. From shady business trying to fake meta score to the removal of youtube videos giving negative reviews on it, just stay away and lose all interest in this game.

    This is the worst game I ever played I have no idea how to describe anything in a positive light. There is not a single aspect I could like. It´s a total mess. Oh yes, the trailers were good. But that´s pretty much all.

    This game just sucks, bad graphics, gameplay and nosense concept (with copy and paste from others games). Please gtfo, if you're bad to do something, don't make it, change work.

    ps: and don't act as fascists because your game sucks

    Let me also add [Like one of the other reviewers] I have, for the first time after years of reading User Score reviews.... Made an account, FINALLY.

    Right. Let's get to it.

    The crafting aspect of this game plays almost no part in the gameplay and is not relevant in any way whatsoever. I never realized going into this game that i'd finish it within 1 hour and 45 minutes [Mind blowing to think that probably 30 minutes of that was spent in loading screens UNFAIR deaths ]
    My point regarding the crafting; perhaps i'm missing out on a HUGE ASPECT OF THE GAME, THE FUNS, OH MY... But what items did I craft whilst playing?.. I accidentally made a water bottle which I couldn't figure out how to drink out of... I could only fill... Hmm... Bandages... I don't recall making anything else... Nothing else is needed, not even the water bottle... You collect a pistol and that is all you need as you constantly get ammo. I was expecting bamboo spears, throwing spears, bows, arrows, anything else!... Nothing!!..

    Also, it only just occurred to me but I cannot recall 'drinking' a single time in my tiny FULL playthrough, so is that a load of bollocks too?

    This is not a game and frankly I feel like every person needs a refund. This is disgusting. Terrible Combat. Terrible Level Design. Terrible Graphics. Terrible Story. Terrible Enemies. Terrible Puzzles. Survival/Crafting wasn't terrible, but that's only because it doesn't actually exist in this game whatsoever. At no point do you have to fish. Drink. Light Fires. Which are about the only craft based things in the game anyway.

    15 Pounds for 2 hours of gameplay? The cheeky, disgusting little punks... And to post fake comments saying people shouldn't be harassing the developers...

    I have bought SO many games I consider 'bad' and played them through to the end, and even though I didn't enjoy the games, I still played through them and as a result they still kept me occupied for many hours in my spare time so it is money well spent as it kept me busy... I can't even say that for this game I was honestly looking forward to getting out of the first temple, walking out into a big land and the 'survival/crafting/anything' beginning, almost like the first 2 hours was a tutorial, but no, that's your lot.

    I will get a refund. For the first time in my life.

    Avoid, unless you genuinely have money to waste... 15 quid is a pricetag that we expect proper games from nowadays.    … Expand

    the forest looks great and you really want to explore it.

    Most things to hate:
    As soon as you go exploring you find enemies that can instantly kill you without being seen, monkeys that throw little rocks can kill you and will follow you
    There is an ridiculous number of bugs that take you out of the experience every few minutes ranging from low fps to very low polygon models and bad textures to enemies ignoring you when crouched and instantly killing you when standing up
    There is a story but I dont think it is a very interesting one, neither do the devs because they have to use all kinds of effects and signpost (really) to get you to move to the next area.
    There are puzzles but they are on a pre-school level so no brain teasers there.
    There is crafting but is completly pointless because you dont need it to survive.

    The main reason why i give this low score is that they claim to be able to produce AAA content.
    Then why did they deliberately choose not to in this "game"?

    There cannot have been a lot of playtesting because they keep on "fixing" (more like moving/changing the bugs) as players that have tried to play report them.

    Still they sell this as a full release which it clearly isnt and I dont have the feeling that they are capable of making this an enjoyable experience.

    You dont even have to wait. I dont think this will ever get to hydrophobia, hard reset, mars:war logs levels and those arent very good games either.

    The best advice for them would be to focus on the few things that do work and drop everything else:
    - plane crash
    - woods
    - figure out a way to get home (without any kind of magic, a simple boat that needs fixing would suffice)

    Then it still would not be worth what they are asking for it now (19 euros) but 9 might be ok.    … Expand

    Of course i also experienced the about the involving company Wild Games Studios. I always look forward to Total Biscuits videos, because to me they're a beacon of honesty in a sea full of bought reviews. Unfortunately for devs, the Day One video turned out to be generally unfavourable regarding their game, so they abuse YT Copyright system to censor TBs review? REALLY? They obviously never even heard of the Streisand effect. Not only their underhand ways of censoring has caught various medias attention more and more people of the gaming scene are hearing about it and you can bet on it: These people will avoid the HELL out of any WGS products. You brought it upon yourself, Wild Games Studios

    Personally i'd give the game a 3/10, if they'd fix the awful bug issues. But they still get a big, fat 0 for being such a nasty company, trying to censor poor TB.     … Expand

    Also what makes the game so bad is that it's too glichy.Some barrels that contain fruit are invisible so you can only see the fruit and you wonder why you can't pick it up until you get the idea of hitting the attack button.Animations are very bad,enemies coming in a hilarious way...until they hit you and your 70% health goes to 0% and you die.That is an other problem.How could my heath go down so quick?The game never explains this.So what you can only do is to think of a explanation.

    The Artificial Intelligence in this game is just silly.For example if you crouch and have half of your body covered by a wall,stone etc. and be 1m in from of the enemy,him looking at you,he will not attack you,though you are 1 m in front of him.

    The game makes no sense monkeys attack you with rocks because they can.The story is simply not good enough to make you struggle through the gameplay.This game is one of the worst and no patch will resolve it.    … Expand
