Before We Leave 

 

Family Friendly Gaming was given a digital download code for Before We Leave on the Xbox platform. I played Before We Leave on the Xbox Series X. Before We Leave is a city builder with an interesting twist. We control what happens to our peeps in Before We Leave. The peeps look like Playmobile characters. I figured that out from zooming in and taking a look at them. The planet we are on is hexagon based. So we can do certain things in each of the tiles in Before We Leave. You will need a road to be able to put new buildings down.

Before We Leave is like most strategy video games. We can stop time, and speed it up. That way you can plan out your next move. Before We Leave includes a tutorial if you want to learn how to play this game. I highly recommend the tutorial since it teaches families what needs to be done in what order to help your peeps. The premise of Before We Leave is interesting as well. A catastrophe sent the people underground to survive. They are now coming back to reclaim the surface.

Before We Leave looks decent and there is some nice music. There is violent content as some creatures will try and tear down what you are building. The controls in Before We Leave are easy to pick up and learn. The tutorial also teaches players where things are. We must research new skills for the peeps to be able to do them in Before We Leave. A lot of Before We Leave is about balancing. We need certain resources to build specific objects. We also need our people to be trained in how to build those specific objects.

Before We Leave is one of those video games that is right up my alley. I wish I had the time and financial resources to be able to stream this game. Sadly I do not have either of those. Other companies are competing constantly for Family Friendly Gaming to do video sponsorships of their games. Hopefully Before We Leave will enter the mix real soon on that region. I would really enjoy playing Before We Leave for a video sponsorship.

There are scenarios in Before We Leave on top of the tutorial and playing a main game. I love how the worlds rotate in Before We Leave. The premise in Before We Leave is a good one to explain why we are starting over on this planet. It is cool there is existing technology on the planet to be discovered. I hope there are more games like Before We Leave in the near future. Before We Leave shows one way to restore a civilization.
