![]() With no other choice, it is time to emerge into this “new” world. Upon entering this desolate world which mother nature has reclaimed for herself, with only one main inhabitant, zombies. A virus turned the population of the world into strange, twisted zombies. You need to survive and try to find other humans. While traveling around the massive map, you may come across radios. These radios have a recorded message that gives you a snippet of what has happened to the world as you were underground. The only problem is finding them, as the map is so big there won’t be many that find them all. The easiest way to describe Dysmantle is a pseudo-survival game. It is marketed as a survival game, however, the only typical survival mechanic is the danger from cold and hot weather. But it is not complicated, it’s just making clothing to counter the temp change. There is not even perma-death, instead you respawn at the last campsite site used, with all your collected items left where you died. So how do you survive in Dysmantle? Fairly simple, you destroy everything then craft and upgrade gear, all the while fighting the ex-human onslaught. 10ton has made this simple gameplay loop become overly addictive. It’s pick up and play gameplay makes it good for a quick runabout and collecting materials for crafting, then realising it has been over two hours. When starting out your adventure, you will find collecting basic materials come quick and fast. Armed with your red crowbar, that would make Gordon Freeman jealous. There are loads of items that you will be able to break and collect the materials. However, you will soon notice not everything is broken down by the crowbar. This is by far the most important aspect of your survival. There is everything needed to survive in this world, from weapons, clothing, picklocks, trinkets, and so on. While traveling, you may unlock new blueprints that will add extra crafting ideas. The crafting is a case of making sure you will have enough of the materials to craft the item. So your crowbar is not strong enough? Well, this is an easy fix, just like crafting, upgrading works the same. However, this increases how powerful weapons are, or how powerful the trinkets are. If you do not keep up with upgrading weapons will become useless for collecting materials and killing ex-humans.ġ0tons, say that 99% of the world is breakable. I am not sure if 99% of the world is destructible, but most of the assets are breakable. This is one of my favourite aspects of Dysmantle, remembering what items will drop the material you need. The biggest let down is in the crafting element. There is almost no building to craft, I would have loved to build a wee town or have crafting more involved, for example having to build different crafting tables and so on. That you will spend killing them over and over. Most of the fights with ex-humans are a simple hit-and-run tactic. Where you swing a weapon, then dodge or walk backwards out of the incoming attack. There are a few different ex-humans for the standard version, faster versions with arm blades, others that spew acid-like bile and so on. When you rest at a campsite, the slain ex-humans will respawn and you will need to do it all again. This can be stopped, but I will let you find out.Įvery so on you will change in the music, and a boss fight will start. These bosses are just bigger versions of the normal enemies. The only change (bar size) is they have more health. This can be made almost inert by having upgraded weapons. But it breaks up the normal encounters.As you ascend from your shelter after the long long years, a brave new old world awaits you. A world with no other human soul to be seen.Ī world inhabited with nasty and vile creatures. ![]() ![]() You need to find a way to escape the wretched island. □ Break over 99% of all objects for materials with the right tools.īut before that, enjoy the bittersweet apocalypse.□ Fight with (or run away) nasty and vile creatures of the post-apocalyptic era.
