    Great follow up to Escapists

    Picked this up after enjoying the Escapist series on PC and Switch. The Survalists places you instead of in prison, shipwrecked and alone on an island. You have to forage for food and supplies to build a shelter and potentially a thriving community (possibly better than the one you are currently in). All around a fun experience and runs well on the Switch.

    I love old school graphics and this fits the bill. You must survive and gather you own food, make tools and weapons to protect yourself. So many this to do and 100 hours of game play if you choose. I got it for half price and can’t beat the value

    Very cute survival game. It can be a little bit tricky at first but once you build a base and get the hang of it, it isn't so bad.

    I’d just save up for Animal Crossing or just get something like Stardew Valley. Those games are much more engaging.
