In real life I'm pretty sure I can't pick up a rock, grab a stick, collect some "plant fiber" (whatever the hell that is), then use those three items to craft an axe that can cut down a few dozen trees. Most likely, my "axe" would break on the first swing and I'd have better luck just punching the tree with my fist.
Even though the most realistic survival games aren't all that realistic, I've finally found one that at least feels honest. It's called Unemployment Simulator 2018, and its free Steam demo (this is an upcoming game, despite the name) doesn't take place on a mysterious island but in a tiny apartment. You don't collect rocks, you pick up empty beer cans. You don't build axes, you craft application letters.
