Description

As you ascend from your shelter after the long long years, a brave new old world awaits you. A world inhabited with nasty and vile creatures. A world with no other human soul to be seen. A world with nature in reigns now. A world that's about to get even worse.


You need to find a way to escape the wretched island. But before that, enjoy the bittersweet apocalypse.

  • Break over 99% of all objects for materials with the right tools. No barrier will stop you.
  • Fight with (or run away) nasty and vile creatures of the post-apocalyptic era.
  • Explore the handcrafted open world and uncover its mysteries.
  • Survive. Clear areas of monsters and claim it as yours.
  • Build outposts to establish your presence.
  • Craft permanent weapons, tools, outfits, and trinkets.
  • Hunt dangerous game or tame them for your post-apocalyptic zoo ranch.
  • Farm exotic plants and reap the rewards as crop gets ripe.
  • Solve puzzles above ground and underground in the Tombs of the Old Ones
  • Fish cunning scaly things under the watery surface.
  • Cook delicious recipes for permanent stat and ability upgrades.
  • Unravel the mysteries of the strange island.


Explore the ruins of the past and discover technology from the hitech era. Gain technological advantage against the hostile environment. Or go deeper and recover the ancient lost knowledge from the hidden tomb chambers of the old ones. Acquire materials with almost magic-like properties and use them to craft insanely powerful gear.


Over 99% of everything can be broken for materials with the right equipment. Do that, and collect the sweet nectar of the old world: plastics, rubber, and metals. There is a reasonable number of different materials to gather. Find Recipes to craftpermanent items and upgrades.


Explore the vast hand-crafted open world and build Outposts to establish your presence. Claim back the land area by area. Find hidden treasures and solve puzzles long ago forgotten. Find your means of escaping the island.


The world after the end is inhabited by nasty creatures. Something vile has affected most of the wildlife and former human inhabitants of the island -- turning them into aggressive beast-like creatures. Slay them and collect their loot. Harvest their organs and provide them eternal rest. Or run away and come back when you're stronger. Fight using various melee and ranged weapons. Create traps and lure monsters in. Do whatever it takes.


You will not be fighting just to maintain the status quo. This IS NOT a game about starving. You won't be constantly looking for a tasty cockroach to fill your over-metabolic stomach while waiting for the unavoidable bliss that is death. You will never die of hunger. You will get more powerful, and unlock permanent upgrades. The world is a dangerous place, and you may take a few steps back once in a while, but eventually you will thrive.

Enjoy the bittersweet apocalypse.

Addicting

Saw this on Steam then saw it on sale on GOG so I figured what the heck and grabbed it. Love the game play its addicting and the game so far has been stable even though its still in Development. If you like crafting/adventuring with a little rogue light this game should be right up your alley. Glad I made the purchase.

So far so good.

like many who have been taking the time to play this game it hits allot of the popular elements of survival games and it holds a challenge though it is still easy to jump into. looking forward to what will happen next.

REALLY nice game with some issues

First of all: I like this game a lot. Cheer- and colorful, you can play at your own pace, interesting and meaningful exploration, nice combat mechanics (even though the targeting is a bit janky) and an interesting story. Cool. Performancewise the game isn't there yet. Everytime an enemy hurls more than one projectile the game slows down visibly. During some of the larger battles or the later boss-fights (especially in the Doomsday DLC at the end) the game is slowed to a crawl and/or rubberbanding heavily. This makes these fights completely unenjoyable. I hope they fix this.

A brilliant time-killer

It looks pretty simplistic, kill zombies and destroy the world to gather resources. And yet there are so many things to do! Puzzle tombs give you necessary loot, arena obelisks give you permanent buffs, there are side quests, environmental storytelling, and in the end a - for me - very satisfying twist in how I see and identify my character. And even if you're not in the mood to kill zombies, you can spend a lot of hours just thrashing houses, cars, farms and trees for the heck of it!
