[h1] ★Intro★ [/h1]
Sons of the Forest, more like other nightmare in the dark, scary and horrible entity in the big ass island. The story revolve a male character with tattoo "Fight Demon" to uncover the story hidden on the island. And also met with future wife.

[h1] ★It's Review Time★ [/h1]
I play the prequel before, [b]The Forest[/b]. When I was a kid, I scare to venture in the dark let alone in the caves. But I am adult now, still scare to venture in the dark and jump scare from cannibals. Anyways, I have so much fun playing it. But it more fun to play it with your friends.

Too bad I play it alone because I got no friend in here :c

If you enjoyed The Forest, Sons of the Forest is a game you definitely shouldn't miss. The island’s design is much more complete and detailed, featuring wildlife and vegetation that feel alive and well-integrated, creating a highly believable and absorbing environment. Visually, the game is stunning. The graphics reach an impressive level of realism, with environments that look and feel incredibly satisfying, whether you're exploring dense forests or crossing snow-covered mountains. Every corner of the island feels carefully crafted, and it really shows during gameplay.

The cave system retains the spirit of the first game, with underground labyrinths that encourage exploration. However, in this installment, they feel somewhat underused: while their size is imposing and there are occasional enemy encounters, the constant sense of danger that defined The Forest is somewhat lost, as many caves feel empty or repetitive.

One of the game's strongest points is the building system. Personally, I love it. Unlike most other survival games, Sons of the Forest opts for a more realistic and intuitive approach, which adds an extra layer of satisfaction when constructing shelters and fortifications. Cutting down trees, designing structures piece by piece, and watching your base come to life feels natural and rewarding.

Not everything is perfect, though. Enemy AI is quite impressive but their strength borders on frustrating. Without armor, it's common to die in just three hits, which can disrupt the flow of exploration and construction. Additionally, crafting good armor feels tedious: despite being surrounded by a massive natural environment, natural protective gear (like wood) options are very limited. There's only the leaf armor, which is useful for stealth but offers very little combat protection. It would have been nice to see more types of armor crafted from natural resources.

Another aspect that doesn't quite shine is the story. Although the game presents a narrative that attempts to expand the island’s mystery, the plot feels secondary and not particularly impactful, far from being a true driving force to keep playing.

Sons of the Forest isn't as good as the first game, but it's still a ton of fun with friends. It just lacks the overall creepy atmosphere of the first game, and the story was better there too, I feel. Still, the game looks great and it's definitely a good time.

This game actually feels like an upgrade over its first part in every single way (very rare to see these days), even though I’ve only played for few hours.

The world feels so much more alive, and the AI is a big upgrade. The enemies are way smarter, they don’t just rush at you anymore. Combat feels way more intense, especially when you’re fighting the cannibals. The forest looks really good too, so much more detailed. The building system is way better than the first game.

The companions in this game are seriously next level (including enemies offc) compared to most other games. They don’t just follow you around like passive NPCs, they actively contribute to your survival.

Overall, Sons of the Forest is an awesome upgrade with smart companions, intense combat, and a super cool world which can feel very scary at times

Building furniture out of Cannibal bones is a highlight of the early game experience.

Ran into a baby fawn with a golf cart, while its family watched and ran away. Then, the baby fawn whilst crying on the ground unable to move, suddenly got eaten out alive by a cannibal that appeared out of nowhere as I sat and watched. 10/10

Literally only have an hour of play time on this game but its generally the most fun I've had with a game in a very long time. I'm really not a big fan of survival games at all because they never do a good job at teaching you how to actually play the game which, I know that's kind of the point but take for example a game like terreria, which in not trying to throw shots at that game but I don't think one person can look me in the eye with a straight face and tell me they beat Terreria without a guide. Which this is why i like sons of the forest it does not really tell you straight up what to do but its still a fine experience I don't feel 'naked' or lost when starting off in this game, this games atmosphere is also very very amazing I feel so paranoid at all times like im always being watched no matter where I am. I never played the first game but I did watch my favorite youtubers play it when i was younger lmao. overall if your thinking about getting the game already I say get it, its not super tedious in my opinion or too easy. In my 1st hour I already found a giant mutated baby, a gun, and a golf cart, if that doesn't make you want to play this game than I don't think you ever will.

The only downside I have is the audio. I have some very good headphones but for some reason most sounds don't sound directional, when you hear something you just hear it, its kind of hard to tell where and what some sounds are coming from but maybe i need to mess with the audio settings.

Despite it being 6 years from the release of the first game, it still has tedious building mechanics and has an open world filled with empty spaces.
