My Name is Sarah

Another survival crafting game that forgot to include any content. Early access doesn't mean that you throw your alpha game up on steam for $20. (It is now $3, which is still pricey for how empty this game is.) The gameplay is dreary with barely any interactions to be had. I know it's your first game (which, btw, does not excuse poor gameplay) but Steam, for $20, is not the way to go. https://youtu.be/NFD6YYO9X6E

This game should be called "My Name Is Cobbled Asset Waste Casserole (C.A.W.K.)" It is nothing but a perfect example of what I call a A.R.S.M. (Asset Reliant Sloppy Mess) because it's not an asset flip. It's just a mess of purchased Assets with no cohesion, no functionality what-so-ever, and bugs galore. This is seen well in my first impressions video where this game made my list of truly amazing Steam games I call M.I.S.S. games: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYmHpSqOvYk My score is a 3% out of 100, only because the developer made a decent intro trailer. Everything else sucks. Usually I try and give constructive feedback on this indie games, but there's really nothing here to praise.. How hard is it to buy a bunch of assets on the marketplace and mash them together into a big mess and extract it to sell on Steam? $20 is ridiculous as this game isn't even worth 49 cents in its current state.

Steam is wrong . I played for 10 seconds after buying game. Then it froze up and has never worked since. I have an older computer that has had difficulty with the unity engine even with other games. The ESC key does not work so I can turn down graphics resolution. Game freezes up on the first screen. Bottom line on some computers this game my not work. I've played Empyrion for 1700 hours it works.

Horrible optimisation, the graphics settings would not work for me and the motion blur made it so awful that i got motion sick withing a few minutes... Lucky really because without food or water that's how long "Sarah" stays alive for. The AI isn't to bad, except the fact a wolf chased me and then dies of self mangulation... Developers have abandoned this game by the looks. Definitely and i mean DEFINITELY do NOT pay the full price for this game. So far it is an empty husk of a game that could be something good.

This is game has clearly been abandoned. The last update was more than a year ago (as of May 2021) and there is no content.

Oh dear god, I`m sorry but this game is down right terrible! https://youtu.be/U5CKXiPkOFU Graphically it is ok, but the gameplay, mechanics and the world are just a mess. Also the lead character just seems so out of place, it makes no sense that your in a "survival" situation yet dressed up in a very inappropriate costume from the start. It`s fine to look at for curiosity at the cheap price, don`t expect to get much gameplay out of it though.

The graphics are realistic. I realize that the game is in early access and there will be issues and bugs with it, however, after the first 5 minutes playing the game, it crashed and threw me out. The second time I went into the game, I only could gather bushes at first, then was able to make a pickaxe before being attacked by a beastman and died. I respawned without anything I had collected. I tried to play the game again, got as far as creating a pickaxe, an axe, chopped some trees and was able to get a few apples from that, hit rock, made a crafting table and then got attacked by a bear and a beastman and died. Once again, I tried, hit trees, rocks, created pickaxe, axe, baseball bat, crafting table, a couple of chests, got a few apples and this time nothing attacked me but because I couldn't get enough water from eating a few apples, I died. I would like to have the ability to collect more things from the ground like herbs and berries because I can't get enough nourishment from a few apples. I hesitate doing too much traveling and exploring in the beginning because I have very little to defend myself. The lag issue of the game is really bad. I will start chopping a tree and all of a sudden, the game freezes for about twenty seconds and then goes on. That needs to be addressed. I tried to save the game but that doesn't seem to work yet. In the beginning of the game, I would like to see more food to pick, and at least one or two of the foods give me enough water to help sustain me and less aggressive creatures that attack me. The more aggressive ones should be as I get deeper into the forest. Also, more destructive weapons beside my tools and a baseball bat. I think the game has potential the further it is developed so I will give it a positive recommendation for now. I will update my review later in the development...if I survive, that is.

Not even sure what to put here, even with my i5 9600k + 1080 ti, at 1080p it runs around 35-40 fps, tried low and ultra settings.. the fps stays the same, maybe it's the optimisation of the game it self... it needs to be worked on, really. Maybe come back in couple months to see if it's any different, the other day i wanted to go back to my game save which i was doing pretty good in, lots of food and a good backpack and wanting to go back in but the save was lost, having to start over.. :( i'll come back in couple months and hope to see the game optimised better. 2021 approximately 1 year later.... it's still the same.. ;[

been playing for a bit and objects apparently are too small so you will dismiss them, devs should highlight the objects which are farmable or where you can get resources. I know it is a survival game but i used a pickaxe on a rock and it did nothing. On trees i used the axe and nothing happen on some trees and on some it will made the sound. Game needs more work.

If you are lucky and can buy the game for under 5$ then i would say buy it, it is early access and real buggy even for an early. i mean you should at least be able to play a little more :) but it is ok there is tricks - if you plan on making a camp do it where you start there is a little pond you can drink of and well you will die every 5 min due to lack of food xD

It's hard to harvest wood, rocks, iron etc. I used a pick axe for iron and got 5, but it took me about 20 to 30 swings just to get it. It feels like the hit marker is not hitting. Same goes for harvesting trees for wood.

I hate to give games a bad review, but: My Name is Sarah is a Survival Game and if the hitboxes of the ores and trees are so messed up, that you can't actually gather anything, it doen't make any sense. Here are some of the problems: (german commentary) https://youtu.be/OSVfL4tC1pU On the upside: - the price is low (2,39 € atm) - there is potential - they are working on patches (2 already went live) - graphics are allright On the downside: - gamebreaking bugs - very few options to chose from (graphics and sound menu) - lack of multiplayer (everyone knows, survival games are best when you can blame another person for your faults) - its rather dark all the time - lack of music If they are working on fixing all their problems, i am willing and would be very happe to change my review.

not really a playable game. no direction or story. trying to mine rocks is usually impossible.

This game gave me aids. https://youtu.be/b813HTIr-HU
