What awaits you in Longvinter?

Longvinter is a typical MMO in an open world in which the highest goal is surviving. You can collect resources, craft items and even build a small city.

You can set off alone or together with your friends strip through the survival world. While Animal Crossing is always peaceful, the cute look of Longvinter is very much. Other players can become true danger, because the use of firearms is a suitable means to get to the opponent's loot.

But it does not always have to approach action. You can also just explore the island and your secrets, relax when fishing, grow seeds and sell your yields.

The evaluation of the Steam Games is currently very mixed. 69 percent of the players have missed Longvinter a positive review. Many call the game simply "Animal Crossing with weapons" or describe it as a simple rust.

The biggest criticisms are the overcrowded servers , which make a construction in the world really hard due to lack of space. In addition, the scope of the game is still really low. The endgame was reached quickly.

Also, the many bugs and glitches rob themselves a large part of the game fun at the present time. At least the exploration of the island and the existing collection objects should remember the experience of Animal Crossing.
