About the Game

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to find yourself in the wilderness with no tools or resources? In this PvE sandbox survival game, you'll need to rely on nature, bushcraft, and careful planning to endure. Every choice matters from maintaining your fire to managing food, water, and a roof top the head.

Stranded on a deserted island after being betrayed by an accomplice, with no one coming to rescue you, survival is entirely in your hands. Establish a base, craft tools, forage for food, and prepare for the changing seasons. Fire is your lifeline, and protecting it, along with yourself, is essential to make it through the harsh elements.

CRAFTING

With no modern tools available, everything must be crafted from natural resources. Create primitive tools, materials, and clothing to survive. More advanced tools require multiple steps to craft but provide a clear survival advantage. As you progress, crafting becomes faster and more efficient, rewarding skill and preparation.

BASE BUILDING

Start with a simple shelter for your base, then expand to sturdier structures to withstand harsh weather or do you prefer a card where you set your base in a cave? Well-built structures provide additional survival benefits and create a safer environment for long-term survival.

FOOD AND HUNTING

Effective food management is crucial. Forage for wild vegetables, cultivate seeds for higher yields, and secure calories with traps and snares. With a bow you can hunt animals directly for a more reliable food source.

WOOD & RESOURCES

Sticks, branches, stones and twigs are everywhere, but timber for structures requires axes and wedges for cutting and quartering logs. Resource management is critical for survival and building.

SEASONS

Survival changes throughout the year:

• Summer: Abundant resources make survival easier.
  
• Autumn: Temperatures drop, but food and materials remain available.
  
• Winter: Harsh cold and scarcity make survival extremely challenging; resources are limited.
  
• Spring: Warming weather offers hope, but careful planning is still required to survive until summer.

WEATHER & HAZARDS

Dynamic weather affects temperature, fire maintenance, and resource availability. Each season presents unique challenges that require adaptation.

DECISION

Decide whether to stay and survive on the island or find a way back to civilization. Each choice carries risk and consequence.
