Don't Starve|Machinima


    Don't Starve is a 2D game developed by indie company Klei Entertaiment (Shank, Mark of the Ninja), released first on computers and earlier this year on Playstation 4 (for a month was available as a part of Playstation Plus offer). It is mostly known for it's unique, Burton-esque, stylistics and a difficult gameplay. Your main goal in Don't Starve is, obviously, surviving as many days as possible without dying. This game doesn't know terms like checkpoints or tutorials, player have to figure out everything. And every death is a permanent death. You have to start from Day 1, no matter if you made mistake at Day 3 or Day 567. Nevertheless, this game is very addictive and challenging.
    I personally found this game to really interesting, surving day after day - rewarding, graphics - charming and style coherent. In Don't Starve world you can die in multiple ways but you can also survive by making various decisions. It's not easy, over time player will encounter many different types of enemies (from bees and spiders to walking trees) and change of seasons (summer, where food is widely available, and freezing cold winter). The only thing you have to remember is not letting your character to starve and die ;).
