A mutated boar and duck walk down the road towards the Ark, the last known safe haven for humans. In a post-apocalyptic time mutants help the humans to continue to live on. These mutants are everywhere and they will help the humans to survive the ghoul attacks on the Ark. Then something happens, someone says that a perfect place called Eden exists, and this starts them down their own journey of discovery and survival. This is our review for Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden.

    You could get the head start with the normal edition, so i played it the last 2 days. I did expect nothing and i was surprised. It is fun to play and more strategic as it looks like. At the moment it has content for ~25hr i would say.

    It has it´s bugs and glitches but they should be able to fix that easily, specially when you play not in english it can happen that your language is mixed in Game and on the keybindings. A workaround is that you force the game in the Windows property's to start in english.

    So, nobody's bothered by the fact that the game uses Denuvo software? I'm having second thoughts about buying it because of this.

    "Note: Our copy was reviewed on Nintendo Switch with a code provided by PR."

    This is probably a typo but double checking?

    It was so much of a "not MMO" that the title had to state it twice.

    Funcom gave me a free copy of the game. I played through the entire game and I can tell you this review of the game is pretty accurate. The one thing I will mention is the game is only 15-20 hours to complete. I have a review video and a new player tip video on my youtube channel if you want to check those out as well.

    They only people bothered by Denuvo are pirates. The rest of us don't really care.

    Article is pretty accurate, fun but short game (but still equates to £2 per hours entertainment which is worth it to me). May re-try it on the ironman mode though as hard isn't really hard, especially if you use stealth wisely (Bromin run & gun combined with hog rush means you get plenty of time to kill solo mobs!).

    Isn't this a turn-based strategy RPG comparable to a Fire Emblem or XCOM? If so, 20 hours is actually a fairly decent length for such, comparable to some of the shorter Fire Emblem games (which average about 20-30 hours from my experience).

    Well it has been a while since I played XCOM 2 but I remember it as being much, much longer than that (I can't check steam to see how long I played because XCOM 2 has the distinction of being the very last game on a DVD I bought for PC :) )

    I think XCom 2 was longer, but I say that with the caveat that it doesn't necessarily mean XCom 2 had that much more content per se; most of the time in XCom is spent managing your resources at base or fighting.  It's all a lot of frustrating fun, but it's kinda hard to measure that kind of content in an "amount" such as hours imo.

    Only bad thing is it came out too close to the Battletech Flashpoint xpac launch.
