One of my favourite effects is time-lapse when you sleep. Many of the effects used in the game are particularly neat aswell. The environment is very well detailed, albeit a bit drab with greens and browns. I haven’t noticed my frame rate dip, or graphical glitch all through my gameplay. With the amount of time I’ve put into Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey they have so far have been bug-free.

It seems very well optimized and polished.

If you wait too long, you’ll get hit by the attack. You have to prime the action, and much like crafting when you hear the click, it’s time to release.

You can’t know whether it’ll be good or bad food until you try it. You can use your sense of smell to search for food, and once you find some, inspect it before eating.

I will be playing on PC using an Xbox One controller for this review.

I saw the survival game I’ve always wanted to play, and it was coming from a Canadian developer as a bonus. When first I laid eyes on Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey I was incredibly excited.
