Flotsam was recently released into 1.0 from Stray Fawn Studios, and I picked it up during the winter sale on Steam. I really enjoyed The Wandering Village PS5 Review and figured I would give this one a shot. I have to say, Stray Fawn really has a handle on these city builders. This time around, the world has flooded, and you are essentially on a boat picking up plastic and wood with the last few survivors and attempting to survive.

Early decisions here matter as water is at a premium, and so is your wood and plastic supply. Your boat has a limited supply of power that slowly regenerates, so choosing wear to go and what to pick up needs to be done carefully. The tutorial, which goes right into the game itself, does a great job explaining how everything works.
There are a few things that are huge game changers. For example, when you can finally start building scavenger boats instead of swimming, your people will be much happier and work much faster. It also becomes much easier to manage food when you can grow seaweed, four or five farms, and you will never go hungry. Survivors won’t be happy with the food, but they won’t go hungry.
The game itself is well done and a lot of fun, and for $25, it has plenty of replay value. Best wishes, and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
