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.

Best of the Best

Easily in the top 5 of computer games I've played. Relaxing. Interesting. Satisfying. Not too complex. Not too heavy. A fun game that remains fun.

Dysmantle + All DLCs

FlyingDoggy's review (April 08 2025) is spot on. Still despite these (minor?) flaws, I did 6 full replays, 4 of them with DLCs, 2 of them with all DLCs. Close to the 1500h mark for that. For me the game is brilliant immersion. Lots of funny and memorable moments too. Pinned a new replay like next year or so. And on these prices (atm game + all dlcs = less than 20 euros) I do highly recomment it.

It's survival without the hassles

Easy on the eyes and ears. Great levels and amounts of progression for those who don't want to invoke the Dev console (like I did). I would recommend this even if not on sale.

Does what it promises!

Great game, you can have fun with a relatively relaxing survival game. The developers were also so generous to make eating not a core part of the experience, it's just a optional supplement, albeit with a strong incentive to at least cook each recipe once. For the first time eating something new gives +5 HP. And that adds up. Combat is nice, starts easy, gets a bit harder, but never feels unfair. Quite balanced actually. There's building your own base, if you want to, so that you can have your very own travel hub. It's ok, works fine, but for me it's not the most important. Rather gaining more XP and therefore levels to get access to better and better equipment is the loop I like most. And the fact that some equipment has to be found (mostly happening through the DLCs, if I got that right). Overall good game, crazy good value if you get it on a sale. Co-op is a bit weird, but it works just fine. Makes the game even better. Slaying monster together with a buddy is just what the doctor ordered! :)
