・Try Hard Guides: 100/100 (PC)

*Enshrouded: Kingdom of Mist* is a model title for its genre. It seamlessly blends survival-crafting mechanics with the exploration and progression elements of an action RPG, and—in my opinion—brings out the best of both worlds. It’s perfectly playable solo, but it’s even more fun with friends.This is because, unlike some survival-crafting games, it doesn’t become too easy or blatantly require a certain number of players; instead, the adventure scales to fit the size of your group.

・Jeuxvideo.com: 85/100 (PC)

While *Enshrouded: Kingdom of Mist* doesn’t completely reinvent the survival game formula, it has become, for this writer, the most memorable title in the genre amidst a field of formidable rivals. The game is beautiful, offers a high degree of freedom, and is rich in content, featuring a diverse array of experiences to explore—whether playing solo or with friends.While the depth of combat still leaves something to be desired, and the voxel-based world has its limitations, the possibilities offered by the building and destruction systems more than make up for it. For these reasons, this game is ideal for RPG fans looking to venture into a different genre without feeling too out of their element.
