Survivor: The Interactive Game - PC

I think the people who gave this game 5 stars did not buy it, otherwise they would have been too frustrated to give it 5 stars. I actually loaded and unloaded this game twice because I thought I did something wrong. The game doesn't work. The reward challenge goes so fast and being you don't have control of your mouse, it seems to take on a life of its own, you can't compete let alone converse other with tribal members. The manual is of little use. I'm extremely disapointed in this game. You would have thought after three seasons, there was no rush in designing the game trying to get it on the market before the popularity wore off. I guess it's just a case of poor software designers

Doesn't work.

This game downloaded very easy.It is not a very interesting game and very hard to understand.I do not recommend it to any Survivor fan.

The game doesn't work for most people! There is a bulletin board with numerous adverse comments. There are already many patches for errors, etc.

I am a fan of the Survivor Series, but this game doesn't do it justice though it's not as bad as advertised. You have your choice of which tribe you want to be and which tribe you want to play against. You can either play as one of the Survivors from the TV show or you can make your own custom character. When the game starts, you see some pretty good shots that are from the TV show and you see the real characters when they go fo mail and stuff like that. But then the game gets a little tough too swallow. You have around 3 1/2 to 4 minutes to "talk" to the other characters. It's basically the same questions over and over. Then you have the reward challenge. Some of the challenges are Ok, but most are just stupid. After that, then you go back to "talking" again. Then you do the immunity challenge. If you lose, you vote someone off. There is no way to speed up any of these processes. You have to suffer through some very tedious and boring aspects of this game. The graphics of the characters and of the landscape around you aren't very good and the AI (artificial intelligence) in the game is horrible. I had 3 people in my tribe that I gave weak emotional energy to and talked bad about them and they still thought we had an alliance. A tribe member will say that you should watch yourself and you ask what have you heard and they say not much. That's it. And during the challenges, you can't even see what the other tribe scored or how close to winning they are in most of them. And the internet play, you might as well forget it. I thought it would be fun to play over the internet but because the game doesn't have anyone supporting it, it's nearly impossible find anyone playing it. Now, this game isn't a total waste as it was amusing for a short time and the price is respectable, but they should've put this game together alot better than they did. I'm dissapointed, but at least it amused me for a few hours.

I was really excited to have this game come out! Being a big fan of the show, I eagerly anticipated the gaming experience of competing against tribes and within the tribe, and suffering through tribal councils. While this game delivers these things, I was less than impressed overall with this game.It starts out really well with character creation. Choosing different traits of your character is essential to winning the game. I mistakenly shortsighted my strength for empthany, which was a mistake later on in the game. You can even put your own name into the show!Then the game starts, and you go through Camp Time, a Reward Challenge, Immunity Challenge, and Tribal Council. One of the things you have to endure is painfully long uploads for each section. Maybe my PC is slow, but I actually took to reading a book between each event.While the camp time was fun in chatting with people, the reward and immunity challenges were often difficult to manipulate. My team kept on losing them time after time, and after awhile, I was down to three members, and all of us very weak. Managing the fatigue and effort levels for the team members was painful and not fun at all. I did enjoy the graphics of Tribal Council, and the voting was fun, but it seemed not to connect to anything that I could tell.I never made it to the merge because my PC crashed soon after, and I cannot now uninstall this game.Overall, this has been a mixed gaming experience. I felt that the "Weakest Link" captures it's game much more effectively , but it's much easier to simlulate a close staged gameshow than a open air survival show. Maybe with a few tweaks, this game could be really what it needs to be.
