Hytale

Our analysis

Minecraft clone that closely replicates without justifying its existence. Some QoL improvements but rushed.

Our analysis

Early access Minecraft successor with impressive visuals and deep crafting. Solid foundation.

Our analysis

An enjoyable early-access take on the Minecraft formula from former Minecraft modders, with thoughtful modernizations like collapsing trees, three-block parkour jumping, proper roof pieces, and smoother performance. Combat and impressive biome and enemy variety land well, but cramped theme-park world generation, awkward enemy spawning, and a lack of overarching goals or endgame direction hold it back. A promising rendition that doesn't yet fully displace Minecraft, Valheim, or Sons of the Forest.
