Review: My Time At Sandrock (Switch eShop)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sandstorms, Sandfish, and a Sandy Oasis Oh My!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Developed by Pathea Games and published by Team 17, My Time At Sandrock is a sequel of sorts to the previous game in the series My Time At Portia and has quite a few new gameplay elements and features than its predecessor, but does this make the game a worthwhile sequel? Not initially, but the game received a few game-changing updates that make this Switch title worth checking out, so continue reading our review to learn why!
The gameplay in My Time At Sandrock is a superb mix of life sim, and RPG with a reasonably enjoyable story and lovable characters who truly grow as individuals as the overarching story advances! The world itself is quite vast and there's lots to do, including helping to revitalize the town by building improvements, farming, fishing, battling enemies, and much more!
The game's story can easily clock-in at over 60 hours in length, but the game itself can be infinitely longer since its life-sim elements mean that the game is never truly over! The controls are easy to learn and master, and the game's difficulty is quite relaxed, as any life-sim title should be!
The audiovisual-presentation in My Time At Sandrock is excellent by indie game standards especially after the graphical overhaul the game received back in March that put the Switch version's visuals in-line with the next-gen console versions of the game! The game also has a pretty steady frame-rate which is surprising given the visuals and scope of the game, but a pleasant surprise at that!
As for the audio side of things? The soundtrack is superb and fits the game spectacularly and the voice acting is also top-notch which adds a lot to the overall audiovisual-presentation of the game! Overall My Time At Sandrock has a stellar audiovisual-presentation!
Bottom-Line: With great gameplay, flawless controls, and a stellar audiovisual-presentation, My Time At Sandrock for the Nintendo Switch is a great life-sim that is well worth its asking price and as such we give the game a great-level of recommendation!
