To anyone who likes roguelikes or survival sims and hasn't played/heard of this game, go and play it now, by the time you look up from your screen it'll be Christmas :-D

Wow, I haven't seen this game never before and it looks like a game that I would play.

(I can't play it right now because my internet connection seems to be deadly slow --> says that time remaining for the download is more than 2 hours :( .)

Yeah, the main dev made the game completely free as bit of an experiment, but he's still depending on it for his livelihood. Now it's all donations though and not sales. IIRC he said it initially doubled downloads but cut his income to 1/3rd. So if you enjoy it, it's a good idea to send a few squirrel hides his way. The developer's nutrition level shows "Starving" right now, for example :P

Yes! UnReal World is one of my all time favorite games and the pinnacle of realistic survival gameplay. If PZ's wilderness survival mechanics end up even 1/10th as deep they are in this game...

 

To anyone who's turned off by the roguelike tag: this is part of a rare breed of roguelike where player skill, not the random number god, determines survival. Most stuff is explained in-game, but there's also an external wiki (slightly out of date, but most info is still good) that will help new players. I'd recommend these three pages for beginners: 

http://unrealworld.wikia.com/wiki/New_Player_Guide

http://unrealworld.wikia.com/wiki/Acquiring_Food

http://unrealworld.wikia.com/wiki/Surviving_your_first_winter
