About these games

Starbound

Starbound begins with the player escaping their home and finding themselves adrift in space with a damaged ship. They must first land on the planet below, repair the vessel, and set off to explore the universe. Players shape their own story: they can try to save the universe from the forces that destroyed their home, or focus on settling uncharted planets, farming, and collecting rare creatures. The game offers Casual, Survival and Hardcore modes and supports online co-op for multiple players.

Astroneer

ASTRONEER is an adventure built around base building and resource management, in which the player explores unfamiliar worlds as an Astroneer. The Terrain Tool lets them dig, gather resources, shape, build and colour the terrain as if it were clay. Bases are put together from modular pieces and extended with automation, crafting stations, power plants, resource harvesters and railways. The unknown system holds seven celestial bodies that can be explored from the surface down to the core, dotted with strange structures and artifacts and sending confusing comms from unknown sources; play solo or in 2–4 player online co-op.

Cloudheim

Cloudheim is an action adventure with RPG elements, opening with the world shattered by Ragnarok, and you play as a Runari tasked with rebuilding it. Combat is built on chaotic physics: you can break the environment, hurl enemies across the map or lasso them into tornadoes, and chain abilities into team combos. Players explore islands and dungeons, gather loot, craft gear and grow a home in the sky, where they run a shop and go fishing. The game can be played solo or in online co-op for up to four players, and it is in Early Access.

Ankora: Lost Days

Ankora: Lost Days is a single-player survival adventure centred on exploration and crafting. Mûn, a rookie Junior Ranger of the Interstellar Patrol, crashes on the unexplored planet Ankora and must craft tools, gather resources and overcome rivers, mountains and monsters. A hammer builds, a shovel reshapes the terrain and a bow defends; she roams biomes from deserts to snowy peaks, levelling up and learning recipes. Rain, freezing cold and blazing heat test her, nights are dangerous, and the visuals draw on Studio Ghibli films such as Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind.

Cubic Odyssey

Cubic Odyssey is an action adventure in an open world where the player journeys through the galaxy, explores planets orbiting stars, mines resources and crafts tools, weapons, outposts, vehicles and starships. The spreading infection called the Red Darkness, which mutates wildlife and consumes planets, can be fought alongside friends, including through orbital laser strikes. Travel between ground, air and space is seamless, warp jumps carry the player between star systems, and skills along with crafting recipes are gradually improved.

The Planet Crafter

The Planet Crafter is a survival open-world terraforming and crafting game for 1 to 10 players. You are sent to an inhospitable planet and must make it habitable: gather resources, craft tools and machines, build your base, and raise heat, oxygen and pressure. Over time, first life forms such as moss and insects appear, followed by thick forests and animals. You can explore old shipwrecks and ruins, play alone or in online co-op, and adjust the difficulty level.
