Friend or Foe is a stunning survival, first-person, open world, crafting game set on a small island that you are free to explore. Finding yourself stranded, you see that you are on something of a paradise, with azure waters, rich verdant forests, and all the wild animals you could pet and or eat. With some fantastic building mechanics, you could find yourself playing this game for hours and hours without noticing, as it is one of the most top tier cozy games that I have ever encountered. If this sounds like an absolute banger of a game, that means you’ve been paying attention. Let’s jump into it.

Gameplay

Off the bat, you will feel that this game has some gameplay similarities to that of The Forest, and you would not be wrong. The majority of your time is going to be spent searching the island, gathering materials, building a base, and trying to survive off the land. While doing so, you will find out more and more about why you are there and how to get home, should you ever want to return to the capitalistic hellscape that is the modern world.

Much of your time will be spent hunting and ensuring that you have enough food to even get by. But while you are exploring, please not that you are able to pet many of the animals that you may encounter and that is, quite frankly, amazing. Game of the year material right there.

This has been designed to be a cozy game, so do not worry too much about whether cannibals are coming to get you, if the weather will take a turn for the worse and destroy everything you’ve built, or any other terrible occurrence, this is simply a nice game and that’s all it wants to be. If you’re in the market for a game like that, then you could do a lot worse than this.

Also, the building mechanics are stelar.

Visuals

I am in love with the visuals of this game. Its like a warmer, more welcoming version of The long Dark. There is a lot to see and Friend or Foe makes you want to se it all. From the beautiful animations surrounding simply chopping down a tree, to petting foxes, to building your first log cabin. There’s a lot to it, with muted colors that make everything look like it was knitted out of your grandfathers jumper, it’s a masterclass in how to effectively sell the cozy vibe from a glance.

Music

The music to this title is amazing and I thoroughly enjoy listening to it, even when I’m not playing the game. There is something so calming and pleasant about it at all times, with simple melodies that lull you into a gentle mindset. Not many games can pull off an atmosphere as well as this one does, but this developer really knows what they are out to convey with all this, and they do so perfectly.
