There’s a massive fun factor in discovering new ways to survive in the creepy little land of Don’t Starve. After a few hours I was surviving for weeks at a time in the wilderness, building crude settlements and keeping the nightmares at bay with all the cool stuff I learned to craft. Instead of being put off I became obsessed with cracking the hidden rules of this little cartoon universe I had been so unceremoniously dropped in. But hey, it’s a survival game, dying again and again is part of the appeal. The open gameplay encourages a trial-and-error approach that led to quite a few early deaths due to timorous beasties, exhaustive mental collapse, and (unsurprisingly) hunger.
The one simple challenge is right there in the title: hey bud, don’t starve. There are no grand tutorials, no easy beginner’s levels, and no distinct goals presented at the start of the game. The cranky, creepy attention to detail that’s present from the very beginning and the Beetlejuice animated series/Tim Burton aesthetic drew me in from the get go, but what kept me coming back for more and more abuse was the way Don’t Starve simply throws players into the deep end and expects them to quite literally fend for themselves.
