Seriously, short of the potatoes everything else is easy enough to handle. On top of these three items you’ll need 8 units of food, water and gas which will be probably the hardest thing to gather as “good luck finding potatoes”. The reason is that there are three bosses that are required to be defeated in order to gather the pieces to fix the plane and escape the Pacific Ocean. Unlike a lot of other survival types out there, Stranded Deep is designed to grant more of a quick win than a long haul. This is a bit of where Stranded Deep starts to show its colours. There are some rock veins that can be broken into but these need a pickaxe which needs rocks and if you’re out of rocks, prepare to get wet by swimming to the next island or by jumping in your emergency blowup raft before really being able to build a larger and more stable one. Where things get a bit tricky is that everything you make generally starts off from rocks and sticks and there are only so many of these on an island.

From there it won’t take long to start leveling up your crafting in order to make better knives, axes, cords, cloth and a variety of other objects in order to keep yourself alive. So it’s with this raft and ration that you’ll immediately want to start scouring the beach for rocks and sticks to make basic tools. Food, water, shelter and a variety of other gear will be needed in order to better survive this wide open space with loads of dangers right below the waters that you’ll be sailing across. Starting off with nothing more than an inflatable raft and one ration, you’ll need to quickly get a few items together if you’re planning on surviving for more than a day or two. So the premise is a fairly simple one, you and up to one “friend” are traveling on a private jet that ends up going down in the Pacific Ocean. So as the title states, Stranded Deep is better to be played with a partner compared to solo play even if cooperative mode is a bit buggy and very dependent on the PSN’s servers and ongoing massive sales.

Having not really done a Better with a partner in a while, I figured now would be a good chance as we slowly start to wind down for the 2021 gaming year before getting into our Games of the Year lineup. Not really having had anything on the go to co-op since Izzy and I sunk time into both the Forest and her platinum of 7 Days to Die, we figured why not have a coastal paradise adventure full of dangerous creatures swimming right below the surface.
