Overall I found Flotsam to be a very enjoyable game that really caught my attention and reeled me in. Though perhaps if the AI issues were rectified this would be less of a problem. It would also be helpful to set a certain task, such as a building’s construction, to a high priority so that the drifters who are set to construction drop everything and deal with that. Some minor things that I hope will be addressed are that if you place a structure in the wrong place you have to wait for one of your drifters to start building it before you can deconstruct it. Hopefully a little more story will be added with time. Currently there is no end to the game, when you reach the end of the map you are looped back around to the start again. As the game is still in early access I imagine that a few aspects of the game will be altered over time and new features added. Usually these issues can be fixed by reloading your save but it is a bit annoying.

The game is still in early access so I always expect a few bugs, but it can be incredibly frustrating when you are out of food and there is raw fish and firewood sitting in the Fish Kabob and none of the drifters are doing anything about it. Most of the time it works great, but occasionally something goes wrong and no one will use a certain structure or they will become stuck in an action. My main issue with Flotsam is the drifters’ AI. Also, it looks like we’ve got another game breaching the Geneva Convention. Even when they’re sleepy they’re still having a great time. The designs of the drifters themselves are also really cute. It’s really colourful and fun and just makes me happy. The marimba sounds are very relaxing and build up those nautical vibes.įlotsam has a vibrant, cell-shaded visual style that I really enjoyed, and I love the haphazard, build-it-out-of-whatever-we-have style for the buildings in your town. You always have something that needs your attention, but most problems can be rectified with little stress.As you play your ears will be treated to a beautiful score. It puts you under just the right amount of pressure so that very rarely do you feel like you can just sit back and let the game run itself. Flotsam’s gameplay is very well balanced.

There are some short guidebook pages that pop up to show you the ropes so hopefully it won’t leave you feeling too adrift.
