“Tinkerlands is an absolute blast to explore, and in many ways it feels like a mix between Terraria and Core Keeper—which is definitely a good thing. The gameplay loop is familiar in the best way: gathering resources,…”

“Nice crafting, discovery and farming Loop. Combat is simple but fun. Its not a survival game at all: no hunger and thirst, no stamina drain, no weight limit(just inventory space and stacking items). Great Artstyle;…”
“Reminds me a lot of terraria, but I am enjoying this game a lot more in a way. the early game is a lot easier and the bosses have amazing sprites”
“I didn’t expect much when I first launched Tinkerlands, but after a few hours I was kinda hooked. It has that simple survival/crafting vibe at first, but once you start building, exploring and unlocking stuff, it…”

“While Tinkerlands is similar to games like Terraria,Keplerth,Necesse,and actually quite a few other games that fall into this category I will admit that the grind level in this game is ABSURD!!!! After playing for 48…”
“Tinkerlands is a very good sandbox game. It gives me over 150 hours of fun. I got all of achievements. Although there is no difficulty, but it will be cost you tons of time. Because I enjoy the process of creating and…”

“Great co-op game to play with friends. Artifact hunting can become a little difficult if you're only playing in co-op though because you don't get drop from chests individually, so whoever opens the chest gets all the…”

“It takes a bit to get to the meat of the game. Progression could be more fleshed out past the first island's things to do. But still a very fun game if you like games like Terraria, Core Keeper, Minecraft, etc.”
