Raft is a satisfying survival game set atop a small raft, drifting through endless ocean. The core gameplay loops of retrieving items from the water, building up your raft, and drifting to islands is satisfying, and there is a good progression of crafted items and visitable locations throughout the game. I was pleasantly surprised on several occasions by the obvious effort that went into many of the locations. The game worked seamlessly for multiplayer, and seems well balanced both for solo and co-op play. Several of the achievements are pretty grindy, which inflates my playtime from the 40-50 hours it took to complete 2 playthroughs. Overall I had a lot of fun building up my raft, surviving, and exploring the locations the game had to offer.
