You clearly need to play some other games to see what creativity and originality are. When compared to literally any other survival game ever, this game plays exactly like TerraFirmaCraft. Once again, it's neither hard nor a good survival game, (check out Green Hell) it's just buggy. This game has about 2 features that TFC doesn't have and they do NOT justify the difference in price.

You didn't even read the actual review, did you? There's a difference between a hard game and a half-baked, under-implemented copy of a modpack whose only unique features are boring and uninspired. Green Hell is a hard survival game. Icarus is a hard survival game. This thing is unbalanced and combersome.
Imagine reading a genuine review and then blaming the reviewer for spending non-refundable money. "Don't do something without knowing the future and then take exception when you're misled". Honestly, the mental gymnastics some kids put themselves through just to avoid accepting that they might be wrong...
Don't Buy. The game looks fancy and polished, but the core mechanics are mediocre at best, and often flawed. The core gameplay loop is boring and punishing. After wandering blindly through the forest for an hour poking around with a frustrating tool for vague results, I finally managed to scrounge up 5 ingots' worth of copper. I pop out of my little mine hole and immediately get 2-shot by a wolf (with a full set of starter armor and a shield, mind you). No biggie, the game annotates your death point so you can get back to your stuff. Except it spawned me on top of another wolf which immediately overwrote my previous death point before I could open my map to copy it. Just go play modded Minecraft; it's more polished, better tested, better supported, fully customizable, has a better player base, and doesn't have stupid mechanics which cause periodic nether storms in the overworld which can be completely avoided by nerd-poling or coffining and just end up wasting your time. By and large this game just made me feel like I was playing a TerraFirmaCraft modpack, except for the frequent points when it was painfully obvious I wasn't.
