Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead 12+

This game is great I’ve been playing nonstop the past week or 2 and it’s basically everything I’ve ever wanted in a game but what’s killing the fun is after awhile I started noticing the game crashes or just breaks for several different actions/ random encounters. These crashes weren’t an issue when I first began playing but now I can’t go 10 mins without the game crashing cause I wanted to fire a weapon. I found a fix but it’s not exactly a satisfactory, you’d have to start a new character to avoid these bugs that plagues your previous character. Now I just wanted to say i know it’s a long shot from here but I’d really like an update for the game, i know it’s been around 3 years since they last updated it so it’s likely an abandoned project but if y’all are still sticking around y’all could give us this last update that fixes several bugs I’m sure have already fixed in the web version of the game it’d be awesome. Despite the bugs, I do still enjoy the game, I’ve even recommended it to a few of my friends just have to work on these issues and the experience would be 200x better.

If you like dwarf fortress, you’ll enjoy this. Think DF adventurer mode. You set parameters for your world including monster spawn rates, loot rates, nods, etc. then you creat your character, there’s a multitude of scenarios for added challenge, professions for different skills (from survivor to bionic soldier to used car salesman to clown to firefighter and more), give them traits and flaws, adjust your stats, and add points to your skills. You then spawn in the scenario of your choice and the world is your oyster. The game has an in-depth and “practical” crafting system, health system, equipment/clothing layering, vehicles, and more. Combat is relatively simple and I wish that you could be more strategic such as targeting specific areas.

The game is still in development so it’s not without its flaws. Unfortunately, it seems like the iOS version has not been in updated for years, it’s not a supported version by the creator. If you enjoy this, check out the pc/Mac version. It’s got more features and bug fixes than the iOS version.

I’ve spent weeks playing this game, it’s very punishing but risk doesn’t come without reward.

I've been playing this for a week now and I can't seem to stop going back to it. It should be on top charts still but I guess I understand why it's not. The controls are a bit funny but I guess that's what you have to accept when you create a mobile game that's based on the pc version with all the buttons intact.

And I guess it gets annoying after you have to keep pulling the keyboard up and than glancing at the instructions on which button to press to do what. My main problem is and it's not a big one. The driving is terrible,

You will always end up crashing it into something because of the controls seemed laggy. It just impossible to drive on the mobile game when the screen is half sized next to the info board compared to a much larger screen.

Also you can't go too far without encounter zombies that will reck you if you take one more step in their direction. The game is great, and if there is an option to turn of zombies for a day that wouldn't hurt really. So yeah 4/5
