ALL WILL FALL

ALL WILL FALL is Waterworld meets Frostpunk, delivering a toned-down but still engaging post-apocalyptic survival experience in a flooded wasteland, with some brain-teasing physics challenges thrown on top. City building fans who like a bit of a challenge are sure to love this title, especially with its unique setting and incredible mod support.

All Will Fall is an accomplished spin on the city-building and survival genres that encourages experimentation and curiosity, and will devour hours of budding architects’ time, but is less successful at conjuring up the same sense of societal jeopardy that has defined its peers.

ALL WILL FALL puts an interesting twist on the city-builder genre. Whether it's the natural disasters, changing sea levels, or the complaints of your citizens, the game keeps you on your toes, and everything can literally "fall" in moments.

Less grim than Frostpunk, All Will Fall transposes a smiliar gather-build-manage loop from the frozen wastes to the endless ocean. Fans of the genre will enjoy All Will Fall’s challenging physics-based construction puzzles, resource management problems and keeping the workers alive and productive. For the game’s reasonable price point, there’s plenty of content available, not to mention Steam Workshop support and custom scenarios. A bit of visual repetition and control quibbles aside, All Will Fall is overall a strong entry in the colony building sim genre.

All Will Fall proves that being hyperbolic isn’t the play when it comes to showing off your game. Although it does not disappoint in some aspects, namely its faction mechanics, premise, narrative potential, and replayability, it drops the ball on the main attraction. Physics-based city-building is barely implemented and hardly restricting. The game’s title begged that all would fall, and fall short of its own promises, it did.

All Will Fall offers a solid foundation for construction fans but feels like an Early Access game due to issues like AI pathing, a clunky camera, and repetitive events. Due to unlockable scenario’s there is progression. However, while there is enough content, the concept lacks depth, with little world-building. Overall, the game can be enjoyable for those who love building but falls short in terms of overall experience.

I've only played the Cyber Tower and Ship at the time of this review, but the contrast offered by those two scenarios alone has me excited to keep exploring the other levels. The extremely space-limited Cyber Tower is almost an entirely different game compared to the ever-moving ship. The game has 8 scenarios out of the gate, including one that is a randomized map, as well as the ability for the community to share maps within the Steam Workshop. Essentially, there is no shortage of content.

I've always enjoyed Waterworld. For reasons I am not fully sure why... This comes very close to that feeling I imagine someone in waterworld would have trying to keep everything together.

feel like dev tryed to connect city-builder game and poly bridge, but totally forget any good physic engine
