AWAY: The Survival Series

"AWAY: The Survival Series is a great idea that unfortunately was horribly handled in almost every way. The poor handling, uncooperative camera, and bugs are a hell of a combination. Neither the great concept of the game nor the nice …"

"Buggy, broken, and boring, Away: The Survival Series is awful all around."

"AWAY: The Survival Series had a shot at providing something a bit different, but it has a multitude of issues that hold it back. Maybe the number of bugs is supposed to be some meta commentary about the actual creatures …"

"So is AWAY: The Survival Series the definitive nature-based videogame that would impress the likes of even David Attenborough himself? Not quite. There are sadly many details of AWAY that feel unpolished and detract from what could have otherwise been …"

"AWAY is a beautiful and educational adventure like no other, but major gameplay mechanics are poorly executed and take away from it being a standout title in the survival genre."
