Smoke And Sacrifice

Until now a good game, with a unique art/graphics style, a very good sense of progression and a survival side that isn't hardcore but requires player attention.
The combat is ok, not too easy nor too hard with a good enemy variety.
The world isn't that huge or variegated, but is packed with things to do/kill/gather and the story is pretty unique and "strange".
Overall, as now, is a solid game for those who like the genre. Recommended.

this reminds me of don't starve but not as much of a focus on survival mechanics. im actually a fan of the art style as it grew on me after a while of thinking early that it was rather boring and bland. everything ranges from decent to good, not really ever getting "bad" in any part of the game, but also not feeling "great" in any way either. some things are a little too simplistic and they could've benefited from being a little more fleshed out & complex, namely the combat jumps to mind as a good example of one such part of the game. lots of little QoL things also will add up and make the game drop a bit in favor as a result. for example i could see this being a 6 or 7 out of 10 but due to little things adding up, it's probably closer to a 5 or 6 out of 10 for me instead.

It is a good game for price of 10 dollar.
Some people complained that the combat is clunky and difficult to control. I do feel the same way, but it is not too clucky rendering the whole game unplayable. It's a 10 dollar game, so I don't think I can expect the dev to make it almost 3A quality. Besides, point and click adventure games' combat often feel clunky so is okay for me if they are not so bad rendering the game almost unplayable or annoying to play.
Some people complained that the story is bland. I don't really mind that much and I think it is decent for a 10 dollar game. The development team is small and they may not have story writer for the game and not everyone is a story writer so this is just normal.
Some people complained the game is tedious. Repetitive collecting and searching for materials for crafting can becoming boring and tiresome, I can agree. I guess this is not a game for everyone. For me, I like collecting and crafting stuffs so it's not a big problem for me, it also helps me kill some time.
Overall, this game is good value for money spent. It has beautiful art, the game is functional, decent story, nice soundtracks and sound effects. Gathering materials and create stuffs are fun sometimes atleast for me. So I do recommend this game for everyone.

Beautiful visuals, well thought out and implemented survival elements and a touching story.

A very decent game, would have been good if two things:
The map wasn't this big, because there is decent variety with the terrain, but the problem is that there are too many 'duplicates', as if someone did Ctrl+C then Ctrl V. Literally same areas with same animals/enemies, things to get all too much. This is bloat, not fun.
Second one, is the armors, it's really silly to keep changing boots from one area to another, could have definitely been handled better. And I had to keep all armor on me at all time and kept going back and forth because the areas are literally next to one another. I had 6 pieces before I stopped playing, and there are definitely more as there is a fire area, kind of ridiculous. Even if you were to say you only need the boots, enemies are easier to deal with when you have the right armor!

Smoke and Sacrifice provides a captivating world and intriguing story, but the gameplay can feel a bit slow at times.

Very atmospheric survival game with a neat story and world. I like that the inhabitants are unique to the game and enjoyed the crafting elements very much. Definite recommend.
