We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Survival players who want to build a settlement from an empty island rather than follow a fixed campaign
- Resource-management players who enjoy gathering wood, copper, and ore for processing and crafting
- Multiplayer groups who want to cooperate through tribes and alliances
Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a game centered on a tightly directed narrative may find the open-ended settlement and exploration structure less focused.
- Players who prefer combat without gathering, crafting, farming, or construction may find the range of settlement activities distracting.
- Solo players who do not want multiplayer-oriented tribe and alliance systems may find part of the game's scope unsuitable.
Our take on Journey Of Life
The defining detail is its start-from-nothing structure: players establish an island settlement by processing gathered materials into components for tools and weapons.
What is Journey Of Life?
Journey of Life is a survival and city-building game that begins with an engineer who has lost his fortune and left his former life behind.
Players start on an island with nothing, explore the world, gather resources such as wood, copper, and metal ore, and process materials at stations for crafting. Tools and weapons support settlement development, while farming, hunting, fortification, and exploration expand the available activities. Ancient ruins are found throughout the world. The game includes first- and third-person modes, male and female character options, changing weather, experience and skill systems, and transport vehicles. Multiplayer features include tribes, alliances with other players, and dedicated servers.
