![]() Anything I could bash on my keyboard would still fall way behind it. So I’ve decided to simply link the 30 minute video that first introduced me to Kenshi and let it speak for itself. I’ve been wanting to write a proper article about this game for a while, but really explaining what the game is and what makes it such a great and unique experience would be quite an undertaking and I don’t even know how to begin. Which is why it looks like 20 year old game. Kenshi is a sandbox survival city builder RPG videogame (that is: defies typical genre classifications) that was released a few years ago after 12 years of work by mostly one guy, who just wanted to make a little videogame that he thought was fun. And Finally, Kenshi proved itself as an absolute masterpiece that can be both frustrating but enjoyable at the same time.I’ve recently mentioned Kenshi a couple of times as a big inspiration for what an RPG sandbox can be and various new quirky elements I’ve added to Planet Kaendor. If you’re a person that loves an incredibly immersive, challenging game that doesn’t hold your hand, this game is for you. Kenshi may very well be the best game I’ve ever played. but unlike most games that suffer from similar issues, what Kenshi gets right sets it above the rest. To attain something, you have to steal, starve, sneak, get beaten up, and experience almost every horror or mischief that the game has to offer. It does not accommodate the inexperienced. Kenshi demands a lot of patience and perseverance with no immediate rewards. But you also have to understand that this game’s development is only being led by a single person. This game is also simply hard and somehow unwelcoming. Your characters sometimes get stuck in walls, NPC De-spawning around the map, Visual Glitches, and you get this “ran out of ram” Crashes. For a game that is being developed for 12 years, it is still filled with bugs and crashes. Kenshi, like every other game, does have its flaws. You can cook your food as you go hungry, gather your materials, you can do or be forced to do some labor like mining and processing, craft your weapons and armor, Hunt some bandits and warlords with a hefty bounty or some huge monsters in a specific area and much more.ġ5 seconds after spawning. You can also research new technologies and items such as armor, weapons, robotic limbs, buildings, and much more inside the base. There is a lot of things to do in this game such as Build a base where you can turn it into a crowded city full of shady individuals. You are free to choose a path that you want to take, Kenshi took the roleplaying genre to another level as you can be a farmer, a slave, adventurer, a dangerous warlord, a thief, or just a limbless guy rotting in the middle of the desert. Kenshi is a game where you can be whoever you want and there is no actual story. Also, there are swamps, a desert with acid rains, weird fungal valleys, and much more. The map is filled with fortified cities, barren farmsteads, and infested ruins. The game itself is bustling with diversity with its huge map stretching over 870 Kilometers. It is a hybrid mix of a sandbox, crafting, hardcore survival, and RPG. The world of Kenshi takes place in a massive post-apocalyptic world.
