How it feels

A sprawling, player-driven sci-fi sandbox where you pilot mechs to reshape a persistent alien world through resource gathering and conflict.

What players say

Players describe it as a land-based EVE Online with mechs, noting a steep learning curve and clunky menus. The population is low but a community-managed server keeps it running, and reviews split on whether the repetitive PVE missions and lack of direction are dealbreakers.
