Ambitious, Clunky, Dark, Brutal, and Beautiful. This is an eclectic game that is mostly an RPG but crosses into other potential genres, such as base building and strategy. This probably sounds strange without context and it is. Kenshi's unique Westworld like mechanics and world make it possible to approach this game from many angles. The game is definitely wonky at times, but it can make it really fun in that Dwarf Fortress/Rimworld sort of way. Really difficult and dense, but stick it out and you quickly pick it up. There's really no better way to learn than to just start, play, and don't worry if you die/do poorly.

As a fan of the franchise, this was an easy enough buy on a good sale. Fine for what it is and what I use it for - my player. Enjoyed it, but definitely not worth it for the full price or if you want a non-play-to-win online experience.

It's worth it for the soundtrack alone. If you liked audio surf you'll love a new look at the concept.

This game is a good buy for any strat gamer. However, I acknowledge that the depth and length of games may deter any causual gamer away from it. Another knock is the graphics. They obviously are "okay" at best. To a strat gamer, this won't matter since the balance and complexity is what matters most (which this does amazingly). The randomized (but influenced) tech tree to every game adds a very unique, challenging layer to this game. Anyone willing to give it a chance will be happily surprised as they are pushing back world eaters with their fleet of customized dreadnaughts and hundreds of torpedo destroyers.

Hella good drunk fun
