  • Released in 2007, I present to you: One of the very first survival games ever made. It's not perfect, but it was one of the first. And that's what matters the most here!
    It's got plenty of issues, problematic design and dated elements, but I still had a wonderful time. In this video we do a deep dive on the game, and give it's entire story mode a playthrough to completion. It was... lovely :) Check it out here:

    Thanks for watching! Let me know if you wanna see more in the future!

    The functioning jankiness, the chunky models, the accessible map editor, the easter eggs, the random gameplay-shifting missions, that one game mode from another genre that comes out of nowhere: now this is the pure essence of someone just fucking around in a game engine for fun that I live for. It's one aspect of early games that I miss, graphics and uhhhhh "biases of the time" aside

    one of my first interactions with survival games was mfing sims 2 castaway way back then, i remember nothing about the game but i know i struggled in the early game as a kid and it's a widely unknown game, good times tho

      I was never able to dabble any sims expansions that weren't dogs until 3. I should make up for lost time

      Same here :) Watching some of my old favourite CZcamsrs dabble with this was a treat

    I used to love this game when I was younger.

    Survival games are so cool especially when you can build up to the point of self reliance or auto work. It just gives you a rush and sense of accomplishment

    Wow, memory unlocked. Thank you so much! In fact, I even played the obscure original German game "Schiffbruch". As a kid I was all over freeware game pages. I never imagined I'd see that again, lol

    God, i remember when I was still super young on CZcams watching people play this game and they never even found the pick lock (at least I don’t remember them doing so) so it was really weird seeing the length of this vid and wondering what was the point of it being so long! Never knew this game had such a wack plot lol, but honestly it made the game even more charming to me. I’d never imagine this game had whole island hopping and wizards much less a plot at all, really felt like the person who made this really went the extra mile! One thing I don’t like about this game though is the title, as I remember trying to find this game plenty of times on CZcams before and I just couldn’t cause so many stuff just has the word “stranded” in it sadly. Ended finding it again on a vid on this guys CS fangame. Though, thanks again on covering this game 🎉! Stranded 3 looks really promising from what I’ve seen, so I hope it’s good cause I’m playing it!

    Deus was out before stranded and schiffbruch, back in 1996, and even robinson's requiem that was out even earlier
    they are extremely deep and complex survival games for that time

    I remember, when i was 12 was when i first touched this game, getting yelled at by my mother to never play this devil's game again when she spotted over my shoulder that it had hemp in it
    Good times

    • @BiddoBamss
      @BiddoBamss  Před měsícem +1

      That was one of my core memories too. Seeing stuff like that in a videogame at the time blew my mind

      People seem to forget hemp was the main source of industrial fiber before cotton cultivation came around with the discovery of the americas.
