The ecosystem becomes harder to maintain, even with the graph system that shows your worlds stats, once you reach the point that you have factories and are pumping out a constant stream of smoke. Even from the start, simply foraging too much food and you could end up finding the occasional dead plant. You can destroy the ecosystem a lot easier than maintaining a thriving one. Everything that you do actually affects what is going on in the ecosystem of your world. Now for the obvious feature of the game: the ecosystem. This is a nice touch to the game that gives off the civilization experience that Eco is based on.
Basically, someone suggests a law be enacted and then the community gets to vote on whether they want that law to be enforced or not.
Not only the group be able to work together to build up your collective civilization and destroy the meteor, but there are also various laws that can be put into place. The game is more entertaining with a group of friends or a small community of players. This is the same process for digging dirt, collecting stone, and finding iron where the resources fall and react due to the gravity. One of the aspects I enjoyed was that when you cut down trees, they actually fell over and then you had to break them up. Step by step, this is a process that will get you from only being able to build a wood home to building an entire factory and downtown styled area. You will need to build these attributes up in order to build better items that will help you destroy the meteor. This is how long you have to build your civilization up to the point that you are able to fend off the impending doom.Īs you continue to build, you will gain skill points that can be used to build your stats.
The first thing you will be forced to notice is the meteor which is orbiting the world. Literally being told to find the meteor that is circling your planet, you will find that there is a countdown on it of 30 real-life days. These have to be followed in order to get your starter tools so that you can start cutting down trees, collecting stone, and working on the beginning of your civilization.

Starting the game off you will be guided with a series of tutorials. There's a reason this game was a top choice for me when I was looking at what indie games are launching in February. Adding an endgame objective to sandbox style gameplay and creative freedom makes Eco stand out from the rest of the genre. Minecraft is one of the most popular sandbox titles out there that give players the option to be fully creative and build giant masterpieces with freedom of movement and plenty of supplies while also giving the option to test players skill in the more realistic survival mode.Įco by Strange Loop Games is a sandbox game with more of a purpose than just surviving and create. Creative games always have the aspect of letting you do whatever you want in order to be as creative as possible in the game.
