12/19/2023 0 Comments Boundless game building blocksUsing a very different system to Minecraft, it’s helpful, but of course once you get going Boundless falls into the tropes so well established by Mojang. Right from the off, the game holds your hand, telling you what to craft and how to establish a home. There are too few options and one can only imagine that everyone will look similar except maybe with variations in skin colour or horns. This all happens after you sign up for an account and create an alien to be your avatar, which is sadly a pretty dull affair. This is where you’ll buy plots and place them to ensure that other players don’t wreck your stuff and, interestingly, it also makes sure that the procedural generation doesn’t mess up your creations. When you first enter into the world of Boundless you’re instructed to craft a beacon which acts as your homestead. There are lots of seemingly abandoned houses, some with crafting tables set up, some with only a beacon flickering a lonesome flame. This is primarily because Boundless is a community game and, so far, there’s not much of a community in sight. However, for all the gorgeous planet hopping and interesting resource collecting, the game suffers from feeling sterile and empty. If the two games got together for an illicit affair and spawned a love child, this is the game that would appear in the delivery room. Let’s get this out of the way, because it’s a comparison that so many will use and honestly, it’s pretty fitting Boundless is Minecraft meets No Man’s Sky.
