HUNDREDS OF CAVES THAT HAVE NOTHING IN THEM. I'M GONNA LOSE MY MINDDDD

this could be good with more updates

Can't wait to see what the devs have in store for us. I might get back to it once some significant updates have been released.

Played with friends (granted, pretty much right after release), got some bugs and glitches and all that fun stuff. We lost interest after a while. Not a bad game, probably just needs time to work out all the bugs.


nice graphics, step up from the first game in any way, not as scary tho...

waiting for the real story, meet me when the third comes out + needs to be longer

Played for arround 6 hours with one mate, was a great experience so far. The forest looks INSANE, the caves are always challenging and fun too explore. Building / housing system is decent at this state of the game. There are still a few things that are not that great tho. For example, the melee system feels kinda janky because the hitbox of the first few melee weapons is pretty small. Game also could be a bit harder, apart from the caves there are not too many threats, even on hard difficulty.

Ther's no reason to play this over the first chapter as of today (June 2023)

Based on what I've played... stick to the first game.

I do think when the full release rolls around the game will be in a much better state, but that's gonna take a long time.

This was so much fun with a friend. Very similar to The Forest with a revamped building system and new enemies. As of this time still in early access, getting better with every big update.

Good sequel, just wish I could actually see what was happening because of how laggy and buggy it is.

Absolutely in love with this base-building system. Putting something like this together is bold after your last game went with the conventional approach of click-to-place prefab structures, but I respect it. The whole idea of building your own base is now its own puzzle that requires advance planning, and I've spent basically my entire playtime in the game so far engineering modern marvels and then lecturing my friends when they interrupt my Lunch atop a Skyscraper moments by demonstrating their poor understanding of terminology any 5-year-old would know 💅

There aren't any robust physics calculations happening, but being forced to build custom structures brick by brick means that you'll develop an appreciation for even slightly large structures and will take way more psychic damage IRL when some graceless goober manages to knock them down. Any friend who plays these #EarlyAccess #Survival #Crafting games for the base building will get sucked into this like quicksand, developing a terrifying fervor for the proper procedures of placing struts/supporting beams in order to reclaim the materials later.

not there yet, super pretty

There really is so much to say about why this game is a disappointment, but to keep things frank, they just didn't get the game to a presentable state before releasing the early access. I'll try to get to the game again once its fully released, but the trend of game devs releasing games before they are finished is getting old.

Played the full story with some friends, it was a great time.

pretty underwhelming, ending was super funny cause it made no fucking sense

Even in it's early state it is an enjoyable game with a story that'll probably only improve with time.

I played The Forest throughout it's EA and loved it. So I am planning to enjoy every update the devs push out for SoF!

Não chega nem aos pés do primeiro, talvez daqui a 5 anos fique bom.

the game is worth itself, but in his narrative and over all map design, the prequel was much better, but I played it on early access, things may get improved, but I don't think they can be get much better in those aspects....


Es bueno, pero salio al igual como salio el The Forest Original, con falta de contenido, esperemos que le ocurra lo mismo y que cuando su desarrollo este completo sea un juego de 10.

Showed up for more cannibals, stayed for more building.
