You manage inventory and upgrade a mobile group of allies while constantly moving through a post-apocalyptic world.

What players say

Players enjoy commanding walking factories and building an army of bots, with combat described as simple yet engaging. The solo developer updates slowly, and some note that travel time across the island feels tedious.
