Boblee Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 I do always have a gaming objective when I get into a sandbox game. So, my objectives decides what I do in the game to meet my goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 What the hell is a sandbox game? I'm assuming it's not a game where you're playing a kid with a diaper rash and sand in their ass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The most basic term would a be game where one session can be played indefinitely without stopping or following a specific objective. In other words a game "does not end". This includes most open world games like Red Dead Redemption, GTA, Assassins Creed, Skyrim and Horizon Zero Dawn. Also procedurally generated games Like No Mans's Sky, user creation type games like Minecraft and simulation/management type games like Sim City and The Sims.

Boblee Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 You can as well add football games to the mix because these games doesn't seem to have an end as long as you are willing to play, there is something new to play in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 I usually set personal challenges, like building specific structures or exploring every area. Sometimes, I follow unique storylines or quests! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted December 4 Share Posted December 4 It depends on the playthrough. Individual characters I develop with a story in mind set out to achieve different things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
