Growtopia

If you’re looking for a different kind of Minecraft, where you can get goods from trees, be sure to check Growtopia. Although the game exists for quite a while already, the move to consoles was maybe a tad too late. The graphics feel old and bland while the sound isn’t that spectacular either. Control wise, the game feels clunky on the PS4 and if you don’t invest some time trying to get to know some of the mechanics of the game, you’ll be ditching this one faster than you can see one of the trees grow.

The possibilities in Growtopia are only limited by your imagination (well, that and your patience with other random people punching you into the lava to perish - again). A chat theoretically lets you collaborate with others. There's heaps to explore and complex combinations of items to discover. I found Growtopia to be far too frustrating to want to play on a long-term basis. There are simply too many people in the sandbox. The over-the-top indie graphics don't do anything for me either.
