How it feels

A measured, strategic survival management game where you carefully balance your crew's needs and explore an alien world at your own pace.

What players say

Players compare this to Dead in Vinland and disagree on which is better. The survival mechanics and quality-of-life improvements are praised, but many find the sci-fi story dull and predictable. The tactical combat is solid, yet the game becomes tedious after the survival challenge fades.
