Barn Finders is another one of those games where the reality of playing something isnt anywhere close to what you imagined it would be like. At its core, finding items, selling them and such sounds like it should be quite fun but it falls apart pretty fast thanks to a lack of locations and a buy/sell mechanic thats just all too overly simplistic.

It all leads to a feeling that you've seen and done everything less than a couple of hours into it and from then on its just a rather grindy chore, revisiting locations for scrap, spraying paintings with water and occasionally pressing a button to kick obvious thieves out of the shop. The weird 'Eurojank' humour is also incredibly hit and miss.

Sure sometimes it can be fun and it can be relaxing just hunting round locations but theres too much jank and not enough content to really make this a good pickup.
