Keep a fragile settlement alive
You place tents, fields, wells, workshops and walls, then assign hands where they matter most: food, water, wood, scrap, science. With more than 130 buildings to unlock, the colony creeps from campfire to power grid, and every step adds another mouth and another thing that can break. Storms roll in, radiation falls, crops fail, and bandits probe the gate, so you stockpile, repair, and keep the sick treated. You watch the happiness meter because your calls decide whether people stay hopeful or start grumbling.
Send specialists into the wasteland
Your specialists are the colony's legs and fists: more than 80 recruits with their own skills and motivations, geared up to face bandits and rampaging wildlife. You send them onto a procedurally generated map to haul back resources, set up outposts, meet rival colony leaders to trade with or compete against, and chase down mysteries about the apocalypse. Quests force awkward calls with lasting effects on happiness and survival, so bringing home loot always costs a decision. Think of it as camping: someone has to go find firewood in the dark.
Good to know before you settle in?
Can you play it solo?
Yes. You run your own colony against the wasteland, its rival colonies, bandits and weather. There is no required partner or shared town to keep up with.
How big does the colony get?
It starts as a handful of survivors in tents and grows into a walled settlement with over 130 buildings to construct, plus outposts your specialists set up out on the world map.
What do specialists actually do?
They are named survivors with skills and motivations who work for the colony beyond its gates. You outfit them with gear, send them to gather materials, clear bandits and wildlife, contact rival leaders, and uncover secrets about the apocalypse.
Does the world change between runs?
The world map outside the colony is procedurally generated, so resource sites, rival colonies and mysteries sit in new places each time. Inside the gates, the pressure stays familiar: scarce resources, hazards, and the next catastrophe on the horizon.
