\u00a0Starting off in Don\u2019t Starve<\/span><\/h3>\n

This third point of view indie games objective kind of speaks for itself, Don\u2019t starve.<\/span><\/b> You start Don\u2019t Starve<\/em> by choosing your character, to this update of the game there are Seven to choose from, they all have different ability\u2019sand Wilson is the first character, his ability is that he grows a magnificent beard, if you check the game out you\u2019ll see why it comes in handy. Willow the fire starter, is immune to fire damage and she lights little fires in the pitch black night. Wendy has a ghost sister Abigail that comes at night. Wolfgang the strong man has higher heath, higher stomach and hits harder. WX-78 is a robot that can eat rotten food and take no penalty. Wickerbottom the Librarian has a bonus tech level. And Wes the mime, is completely useless, doesn\u2019t speak and has a hard time staying alive, so basically he\u2019s a character to use if you want a challenge. My favorite character in Don\u2019t Starve<\/span> has to be Willow; I don\u2019t know why, I just like to play her. The characters don\u2019t speak though, they talk in tones of instruments, it\u2019s kind of old fashioned so to speak, its really quite awesome.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0How Don\u2019t Starve Works!<\/span><\/h3>\n

Don\u2019t starve<\/span><\/i> is a very challenging survival game, you come across a lot of different obstacles, whether it be trying to find food to stay alive or even fighting off a hoard of hounds that come every 10 days or so. One day in the world of Don\u2019t Starve<\/em> lasts around 8 minutes, from day to night. You have 3 circles in the top right corner of your screen, the top one is Sanity, if your character experiences something abnormal, say wolfs come or if your chopping trees down and one of them comes alive and try\u2019s to kill you for chopping down to many trees, your sanity will slowly deplete, if your sanity hits zero your nightmare hallucinations will indeed try to kill you. The bottom two are your stomach showing how hungry or full it is, and the other is heath, obviously showing how much life you have left.<\/span><\/p>\n

The makers of Don\u2019t Starve<\/span> update the game every 14 days or so, adding more and changing existing things to the game. Recently, in the last two or three updates, they have added winter and rain\/thunder\/lighting, winter comes at around day 20, but if that\u2019s too hard for you and you can\u2019t arrange enough recourses before then, than before you create your game at the menu you can customize your came, to make it a long summer (40 days). <\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t Starve<\/strong> is a very, very addicting game, my highest day count (how far I\u2019ve made it in the game) is to day 211, I then died. Once you die you lose your world, all of your data and must restart again. You can Build an effigy that is a respawn station that lets you spawn once you have died, once you have used it you must build another for it to work again. <\/span><\/p>\n

I have been playing Don\u2019t Starve<\/strong> for quite a while now, and the only time I got sick of it was when I died at day 211 and stopped playing for a week. This game is full of surprises and a ton more things to-do from what I\u2019ve said, I highly recommend checking <u>Don\u2019t Starve<u\/> out if you\u2019re into adventure indie games.<\/span><\/p>\n
