New Survival Game ‘Enshrouded’ Draws Comparison to Popular Titles
The gaming community is buzzing about the arrival of the new survival game, Enshrouded, on Steam. Developed by Keen Games, the early access game has drawn comparisons to popular survival and role-playing games, such as The Legend of Zelda and FromSoftware titles like Dark Souls.
The game is set in the post-apocalyptic world of Embervale, where players must navigate a broken world and survive in the aftermath of a catastrophic war. Enshrouded’s immersive narrative style and handcrafted world-building have piqued the interest of gamers, with the promise of an updated verdict upon the game’s departure from early access.
The gameplay includes elements of resource collection, base building, and exploration, as well as combat mechanics that have drawn comparisons to those of popular role-playing games. However, the game’s unique blend of borrowed designs from other titles has left some players feeling that Enshrouded lacks originality, despite its potential.
While early reviews praise the game’s stunning visuals, atmospheric world, and epic soundtrack, some pointed out gameplay mechanics that feel familiar and repetitive, with a steep learning curve and occasional frustrations with the lack of clear instructions.
Enshrouded is currently available in early access on Steam, with plans for a release on next-gen consoles in the near future. As the game continues to evolve through its development, players and fans are eager to see how Enshrouded will distinguish itself in the competitive world of survival games.
As the game’s popularity grows, it will be interesting to see how Keen Games addresses player feedback and refines the overall experience. The potential of Enshrouded is clear, but its success may depend on how the developers adapt and differentiate the game from its predecessors in the survival game genre.
