First of all, I got the Game because I got a 90% Voucher for this Game and therefore paid only one Euro. This Money is definitely worth the Game! But I would also like to say that the Standard Price of 10 Euros is also absolutely fine.
Just as a Tip: These Coupons in General are thrown in. So just look in the appropriate Forums to see if you can get a 90% Coupon there.
Now to the Game: Asteria is a Minecraft, Terraria Clone. Anyone who is enthusiastic about such Games could also be interesting for Asteria. In Addition, this Game also has something of the good old "Super Metroid."
It starts with landing on an alien planet and then having to explore it *. You start in a Kind of Cave and after exploring it you will find a Workbench where you can make the first "Mining Laser." With this, you can mine the first Materials. In The end, the Game boils down to finding Tier 2 materials with "Mining Laser" Tier 1 in order to be able to use them to mine the Materials for "Mining Laser" Tier 3. The highest Level is then Tier 9. The higher Level Materials can be found deeper and deeper in the Planet. So You have to dig further and further down. The further down you get, the stronger the Opponents get. A little Variety give Portals that lead to such a Kind of "Dungeon" at the End of which a thick end boss lurks. This always drops rare Objects or Components.
But this infinite Ditch is a lot of Fun for me, I always have to dig Buck even deeper on it, because the Tension on what there is to discover is a priority.
The Game also has a Multiplayer, but I didn't test it. So I can't tell you anything about it, except that I couldn't log in to the official Server.
This leads to the small Criticisms of the Game. I feel like the Developers aren't working on the Game anymore. An Indication of this is an Entry in the Steam Discussion forums on Asteria. There, there is a lamentation of the flawed Steam achievements. There, the last time a Developer came forward in July with the Promise that the faulty Achievements will be fixed in a Week. We now have November and since then no Developer has come forward and the i!
Achievements Still don't work flawlessly!
That with the flawed Achievements would be another Criticism. It's that some go, some don't. Others are only released after Game Events, but they are not directly related to the Game * *.
* I didn't really follow the Story of the Game. But I think you crashed with the Spaceship on a strange Planet and now need to explore the Planet in order to get away again, or something! :) * * Example: Kill 100 Enemies. These opponents have definitely been defeated. However, the Achievement is not counted according to the 100th Kill, but only after one has defeated an End boss, or has risen through a Portal.
