Today's review of a game I have been playing for a while and would like to share my opinion with all of you. Join me to see what I thought.
Slime Rancher: You want it, but you don't know it yet.
Slime Rancher is the story of Beatrix LeBeau, an intrepid young rancher preparing for a life a thousand light years from Earth in the'Far, Far Prairie' where she tries her luck to make a living dealing with slimes.

An addictive game to the max with a very promising future.
Because of its aesthetics and staging it's easy for 'Slime Rancher' to go unnoticed, seeing colored balls on its cover can soon come to mind a 'Puyo Puyo' match-3 and the idea of creating a farm of these slimes doesn't seem like one of those ideas capable of making our heads explode either.
The reality, on the contrary, is very different, it is a highly entertaining video game that promises you hours and hours of fun and recreation.
The definitive proof is among his reviews of Steam, with thousands of very positive analyses that highlight precisely what we were saying, which is one of those titles that you can easily get into and get caught up in until the hours fly at a speed that is difficult to control.
A day at the farm
We are in a more or less enclosed area where there are several plots of land on which to build orchards, pens, machinery and holding cells for the slimes. To hunt we will use a vacuum cleaner that admits a certain amount of slimes that will be transported to our farm and stored in their corresponding cells.
We will do the same with the food, either from our own production or picked up on stage, which we will then give to our slimes in order to get the precious treasure that they keep inside: their poop. Different slimes produce different poops (which are sold in a market that fluctuates so that you don't just grow one type of poop), and feeding them different poops will evolve to shape new types that offer alternative rewards.
Poop traffic
More and better poop means more money, and that in turn means adding a jetpack to our character, improving the capacity of the vacuum cleaner, building on more plots, opening up new paths... But above all, taking better care of our slimes, and not only for their sake, but also for ours.
Maintaining control of the population is key to not getting scared, and if we pile up too many slimes in a fence, the hungry ones will start jumping up and down near a food source to try to reach it. If you haven't added a second height to the barrier or a roof to prevent leaks, chances are you'll soon be back at the farm and find dozens of slimes jumping around that have already swept away your chickens and carrots.
But that wouldn't be the worst thing. If the slimes end up overcoming the fence of other slimes and ingesting their poop, the slimes will reach their evolutionary peak and end up developing a disease that turns them into a kind of zombie that infects the rest of the group and attacks everything that moves until they die in a fireworks explosion.
The challenge ends up being halfway between the exploration of the environment, to find new slimes or fruits to plant, and the control of our population, which requires a constant diet to produce and thus maximize our benefits to continue evolving character and farm.
We can find Giant Slimes too!!
These giants and beautiful slimes have two functions: To be beautiful and the other to give you resources or keys to enter different areas with more slimes and different things we have to do is to feed them until you kill them, Yes kill them hahaha they explode for eating so much and leave you the loot.
Don't let him out of your sight.
Not only has someone had the Holy Nose to try to sell us a game in which we catch cute creatures and imprison them to feed them and steal their feces, they have made us feel good about it and become addicted.
Slime Rancher' is a game where it's as easy to learn as it is to accumulate money, so you end up putting it up on the ceiling or you or your content. I admit that I started it with a grimace of mistrust and, after several hours with him, I can now only recommend its purchase with all the strength in the world.
I give Slime Rancher a 8/10 score.
