    This is a survival horror game. And such, it is not for everyone. But for those who know what they are looking for, this game truly delivers. The pacing is slow but the story and the world are amazing. Desolate will need some patience from the player to fully experience the game. And it is totally worth it.

    Desolate definitely has some mega aspirations for such a short game. The developers are clearly acting under the influence of some major titles that have dominated the genre and for a game at a $19.99 price point, it delivers … for now. While we were playing, we talked it over as a group and we think the game is definitely worth the sticker price — we all agreed that there was a really good foundation, but there’s a long way to go. More story, more quests, more character customization, and more rewards appear to be on the horizon. The framework for Desolate is super solid, but it’s time to flesh this out before folks lose interest.
