About these games

Don't Starve Together

Don't Starve Together is a standalone multiplayer expansion of the uncompromising wilderness survival game Don't Starve. Players enter a strange and unexplored world full of odd creatures, hidden dangers and ancient secrets. They gather resources, craft items and put up structures that fit their own way of getting by, all while unravelling the mysteries of ‘The Constant'. They can play alongside friends in a private game or meet new players online, joining forces to endure the harsh environment or heading out on their own.

How to Survive

The player is a shipwrecked castaway on an isolated island in a bizarre, freakshow world. Survival means collecting Survival Guide pages, finding food, water and shelter, and getting through the night. Gathered materials become over 100 handmade weapons and tools, such as shotguns and Molotov cocktails, to defend yourself and your friends. There are three playable characters with different characteristics and skill trees, four islands with their own flora, fauna and monstrosities, offline story play with a friend or online play in eight challenges, and the ‘Iron Man’ difficulty.

How To Survive: Third Person Standalone

Third Person Standalone offers a single player third person view of the zombie crafting adventure How to Survive, created at the community’s request. You choose one of four characters with distinct stats and skill progression, and hunt, fish and forage to craft tools and weapons that cover your needs for food, water and shelter. Besides natural and unnatural threats across the islands, a survival guide from an eccentric stranger may be your only help. The game includes a story mode, eight demanding challenges, free roaming with permadeath and three difficulty levels.

The Survivalists

The Survivalists is an adventure survival game set in The Escapists universe. Players explore a procedurally generated wilderness with varied biomes and changing day and night cycles, hunting animals and mythical foes and taking on quests from a Mysterious Stranger. You build and craft food, items and structures — from a primitive axe to a fruit smoothie — while tamed monkeys use the Mimic System to handle all sorts of jobs, whether everyday chores or support during raids on a fanatic camp. Up to four castaways can play together, sharing adventures, loot and trading.

Niffelheim

Instead of peace in Asgard, a fallen warrior's soul is trapped in the harsh world of Niffelheim. The player survives, raids neighbouring lands, explores dungeons and caves, and seeks the way to Valhalla. Bones, teeth and fur are used to craft weapons and armour, build a fortress, brew potions from mushrooms and beasts, and prepare meals and poison for the most powerful troll. Pieces of the portal to Asgard are collected, guarded by giants, deadly spiders and hordes of undead, while the ultimatums of the Death Priests must be answered.

Mayday: The Survival Island

After a mysterious crash, you wake up alone on a remote island, injured and disoriented. Mayday: The Survival Island combines survival, item crafting and free exploration: you hunt wild animals, fish, grow crops and build your own homestead. You explore an archipelago of 24 islands, from misty swamps and sun-bleached beaches to ancient cemeteries and forgotten ruins, searching for treasure and uncovering secrets hidden beneath the waves. The story unfolds according to your decisions, with no forced objectives or linear path.
