After watching Wanderbot playing this game I had to try it.
I'm pleasently surprised how fun it is. And I think a few around here will probably like it as well.

While it does say Card in the title it's not really a Cardy game. Just how the interface works.

This game is *fun*.

I lost my first run as the islander on day two to hypothermia. I shouldn't have cleaned myself in the ocean making me wet right before bed.
Didn't help that I forgot to light my campfire.

With my second run I'm on day 13. Was halfway through making enough bricks for my new kiln before I got bit by a Monitor Lizard looking for more clay.
Luckily I had a basket full of salted fish by then and already explored enough healing herbs ready for harvest. Harvesting enough herbs so you figure out the Aloe paste recipe should be a priority next time.
Have been spear fishing (And the occasional sea gull trying to get my fish scraps) while healing. So I can explore more of the jungle once I fully heal.

Still need to figure out what to craft to negate the ever increasing lonely debuff I'm getting.

Have you figured out how nutrition works? I managed to die of starvation on a full stomach after two days of eating fish non-stop.

Have to also eat other stuff.
You'll get a warning stat that grows bigger the more you get sick of something.

From what I know is that if you eat the occasional coconut meat/Bird/Crab and other stuff it's not that hard.
Also you can explore a place even if it says 100% if you need more stuff it seems.
