The game seems like it has potential, but it's also absolutely horrendously optimized. By far the worst optimization I've seen in a game in years. I'm able to run similar open world survival crafters (Conan, Dune Awakening, Palworld, NMS, Valheim, etc.) with absolutely no issues. I can run Star Citizen and get above 60fps most places. But this game brings my computer to its knees.
The real issue seems to be moving. If you're in a single spot you're fine. If you move even a few feet, such as to go collect some things or navigate the woods? Massive hitching, frame drops, drops to sub 10fps, until you stop moving and allow the game to catch up. Even with all settings to absolute dogwater quality it doesn't help. Something about moving throughout the game world just kills the performance. Also resolution scaling also affects the UI, so if you want to run it at 50% scale, get ready to not be able to see in-game interact prompts.
I'm sure there's a neat game in there somewhere, but I don't know what sort of computer you'd need to run it.

I really wish I could recommend that game, but unfortunately more than "early access" it looks like early pre-alpha. It's very rough and frustrating to play. However- I will be checking up on the progress because it looks like it can be good in future.

It is an amazing game when it works, but the bugs just sometimes prevent you from progressing, leading to having to either load an earlier save or restart completely. In it's current state, I cannot recommend it. Once the bugs are fixed, I 100% recommend it.

I want to like the game but it definitely needs a lot of work especially when it comes to optimization.
My PC has a 4070 TI Super, i7-14700K, 32GB DDR5. It should not be stuttering as bad as it is on this game, and the settings don't seem to affect anything at all. Something is clearly wrong on a fundamental level and it needs work.
The devs said it's just the first map that's laggy due to some issue they're trying to figure out so I'll change my review once that's fixed.

I’m absolutely in love with Reka! The aesthetic is gorgeous. It's moody forests, cozy huts, and all the witchy vibes I could ever want. It’s exactly the kind of atmosphere I crave in a game: mysterious and magical. The game feels smooth and intuitive, and I love how it lets you settle into the role of a wandering witch. Even in early access, it already feels like a beautiful little world I want to live in. I seriously can’t wait to see what future updates bring—especially more main story content.
If you love games with a strong sense of place, nature magic, and a sprinkle of folklore, Reka is absolutely worth checking out.

This game is for anyone who wants a witchy game, a calm game, is a builder, relaxed explorer, likes quests, interested in gardening (coming out today), into slavic mythology, wants a home in the most unusual way, a game from early access to help mould it for the future, or any combination of those. I hope all new players enjoy it and have fun! :D

Unplayable, I’d love to play this game but in its current state I can’t. No matter how far I get in the game, how many saves, it always takes me back to an early save. I even deleted that save, and yet it takes me back essentially erasing my progress. Also, the pine branch tends to get stuck equipped and I can’t unequip it and use my lantern. Oh well.

The overall story is enjoyable, the game being read text and then find solutions to the various NPC problems. Not all the hints are helpful, but its not overly difficult. My issue comes with the buggy nature of the game. My controller (Xbox) doesn't always work with aspects of the game. I"ve gotten to various points where I can't turn back and also can't progress because I've interacted with a portion of the story which the game allows, but not in the way it was intended, leaving me stuck and unable to do anything but reload a save. Having had to do this 3 times now, the game is not enjoyable enough for me to attempt playing it again at this time. Maybe next year they'll fix the bugs and I'll try again - for me this not stable enough to recommend.

This game has the potential to by my favourite game ever made <3 The small portion of the plot we have now is very fun and a promising hint of what's to come. It's so pretty, the music is amazing, love how custom it is, really looking forward to the rest.

Reka is definitely one of the games with the most potential out there. The ambience and theming is great for a witchy type game. I love that I you can build your own baba yaga style home, love the crafting and lore that unravels as you progress through the game. The music and sound design is, so far, an absolute *chefs kiss*! I am definitely captivated and want to play more and more!
With that being said, it is a VERY EARLY access game. The graphics are not the best (biggest concern to me are the many clipping issues), and there are numerous bugs that can be spotted even to the untrained eye (Saying this as I am a professional Dev QA). Game is also not super well optimized for steam deck, it is definitely more enjoyable on PC and has much better performance.
I am excited about the future of this game and cannot wait to play it more!
