Cro Magnon Reviews

I wouldn't play this if you paid me to.

I think this game has been abandoned no updates since august of 2018

Wow. Where to begin. Firstly, the game screenshots and trailer make the game look 100x more playable and enjoyable than it actually is. So much could have been done with this game. It has so much potential. But when basic game play actions like zoom and scroll and point and click aren't even available and you can only play the game in eagle eye mode, so much is missing from this. As it stands currently, this is not a playable game. It's a panoramic view of something which has yet to be transformed into a game. It's not even worthy of being on early access. Come on guys. At least improve some key elements of this game before charging anything for this. Interesting idea. In a VERY early development phase. Released 2 years ago... come on. This can be so much better.

Very early game, not very well made, doesnt explain how to play very well or at all. Went into it thinking it was going to be a caveman like Banished type game and gameplay. Was not at all like Banished but i suppose its too early on too expect much. DO NOT BUY UNLESS YOU LIKE A GAME THAT DOESNT WORK VERY WELL!!

This game is only for people who like that type of game and on top of that don't mind to play with a quite far from being finished game (I've tested 15/08/2018 so in Early access) Beware ! This is NOT the kind of game in which you take full control of a caracter and fight or explore directly as him, no, here you just assign roles (hunt / produce tools / reproduce / scavenge / and so on) to all the people of your tribe and they follow them more or less.... and you let time (years) pass by and wait to see how the tribe evolves. I've been fan of games like Civilization since Civ (1) so I enjoy games in which you manage the evolution of a tribe over a long period, and that's why I've bought Cro Magnon because I thought I'd love it too, but I couldn't fall in love. The idea is good, the dev is not bad at all, but I've became bored quit quickly, probably because it's frustrating (at least for me) not to really controls everything like in Civ (in fact it's rather the opposite, your control is very limited) and especialy not be able to send a warrior protect someone being murdered by a Neandertal or a wild animal even if it's not too far from the camp, or other things like that. So, unless you are sure this is the type of game you like, do not buy it... or at least wait for the final version in case it would have much improved in the meantime. PS : I play offline as often as I can and that's why I only seems to have played a few minutes to this game while I played a bit more than an hour.

I like being the caveman boi and killing the bad big chonk neanderthals. it is a fun game, but once you wipe out the small neanderthal outpost and destroy the enemy AI village, there is not much to do. you just expand and have more babies. Neanderthals will sometimes respawn and then attack you. This game is meh. If you like broken games to play when your bored, then play this. A much better game to play would be Dawn Of Man, because that game is finished. Dawn of man also takes place in early human times but alas, Dawn of man has no thoc neanderthals. I suggest this game because i am stupid, and i like to touch them neanderthals.

Great potential. Although I am unsure of how the buildings progress because I am 39 min in, which I expect to change, alot of challenge, but i would wish for better way to select unit, particulary males 12-older in terms of combat due to being invaded and unable to grab all my males at once searching for them because they are on and about with hunting, which can get irritating and perhaps selective building areas, but anyways, Cro magnon presents a beautiful or deal of putting you in the days of the prehistoric atmosphere, harsh and violent, more or less the potential is great, and I expect to see more of it as it progresses. Although as seen in the news update, one thing to warn you about although they are working on fixing it, saving the game quite frankly is abit glitched.
