Why you might like it
- A genuinely realistic medieval sandbox with full-map terraforming, tunnel-digging, and player-built settlements across a 21x21 km persistent world.
- Relaunched in June 2023 by new publisher Long Tale Games after the original 2021 shutdown, giving the game a real second chance.
- Deep, skill-based crafting and non-armored combat systems reward specialization and cooperation over simple gear grinding.
- Guild-based land claims and trade routes create meaningful player-driven politics and economy.
- A dedicated Discord community (thousands of members) has stayed engaged through the shutdown-and-relaunch cycle.
Things to consider
- The original version was fully shut down in January 2021 after Bitbox Ltd.'s financial troubles and a broken relationship with publisher Xsolla — the current version is a 2023 relaunch under different management.
- Concurrent player counts are very low (commonly single digits to a few dozen on Steam), a small population for an open-world sandbox.
- Realistic, punishing survival and combat mechanics have a steep learning curve unfriendly to casual players.
- As a niche indie sandbox with a history of financial instability, its long-term future isn't guaranteed.
- Terraforming and construction systems, while deep, require significant time investment before they feel rewarding.
