    Eidolon just randomly throws you into the middle of western Washington of the year c. 2400, leaving you only with an idea that humanity is in short gone. Who are you? What are you? Where should you go and what should you do there? The questions accumulate, and the answers are not coming. You have to find them by yourself. And so it begins one wannabe artistic adventure but of the value that will disappear like morning mist.

This game will not make rules, or explain anything, what may be repulsive for some, but very appealing for most, who got bored of today's soulless blockbusters. Full Review »

    I made an account because I saw the low review score and I HAD to change that, this is my first review so here it goes!

    This game isn't super heavy on survival mechanics, but it's there, there is hunting, fishing, starving, freezing, infection, all that good stuff but they aren't super complex mechanics, they are there, but in their simplest form.

    The critics are freakin' idiots, I saw a review here that said they probably expected a survival game, no, this game is more story based than anything else, the lore is REALLY well written.

    The only small downer is that the game assets are kind of limited, but the developers are working on that, and will add more models, lore and location
    (the world itself takes several hours to cross,if you don't explore and going in one direction. that's HUGE).

    I really enjoyed this game, a ton, please, please, please, please, please, PLEASE don't listen to the idiot critics, they clearly didn't spend enough time with the game and that's just straight up unprofessional.

    I'm gonna make my friend make an account for this game just to review it, LOL, the game deserves a way better score.

    Not disappointing so far, cool game.

    Only downside is that there is a ton of walking, but that's alright because the world is beautiful!

    I especially like the music, it's really amazing. Look up Eidolon ost on youtube.
