Endzone: A World Apart

Endzone – A World Apart quickly established itself as one of my favourite strategy games on a console. The game comes as a breath of fresh air when the genre is quite limited in terms of selection and watered down options of other titles. I’ve poured in excess of 30 hours into this title within a week and I have barely scratched the surface and this is without engaging with any of the scenario options.

It took a while but I ended up thoroughly enjoying the strategic management gameplay of Endzone - A World Apart: Survivor Edition. It may have a steep learning curve but if you're willing to put some effort in, you'll eventually have a great time.

Half of the game is not available because of a lousy adaptation of the controller. A version that they sell us as Series X|S, when in fact it is Xbox One

Endzone - A World Apart is an engaging post-apocalyptic building strategy game that will keep you glued to your screen for hours on end. It particularly stands out for its appealing and fairly original design of certain buildings and mechanics. Thanks to the changing conditions—notably unstable weather, radiation, and the ability to send scouts into the ruins—it’s a lot of fun. However, the settlement’s defense could be a bit more in-depth, and it wouldn’t hurt to have more building upgrade options or a larger research tree. Even so, it’s a very well-made game within its category.

I would have liked to have seen multiple options available Endzone: A World Apart. The ability to have friends play and help as a neighboring town or even be an enemy would have added something a bit more and allowed me to share the experience with my fellow gamers. Whether you are a fan of the genre or just get intrigued by simulators, this title has a bit of everything from experimenting with layout setups and gives players the chance to see how well they would do given the same situation.

Endzone: A World Apart doesn't offer anything new that hasn't been seen already in terms of management gameplay. If I wanted to describe it quickly, it's an apocalyptic-themed Banished. And this is not bad either. If we overcome some design flaws and a possible lack of variety, we have a title with a remarkable base that can offer us many hours of play.

Endzone: A World Apart is a carbon copy of Banished, both for better and for worse.

Interesting post-apocalyptic survival city builder, however without story and after few completed scenarios it is eventless.

Endzone - A World Apart has turned out to be a rich and articulated management game, but one that risks filling a bit in the long run, especially when the community that the player carries on his shoulders will acquire a certain weight. Despite this, the challenge offered by the game turns out to be decidedly satisfying despite its not indifferent punishment, making it a must for all fans who’re looking for a considerable challenge in this genre.

Endzone: A World Apart shows a much more conventional post-apocalyptic world than Frostpunk, and is also a much more conventional game.
