Stranded: Alien Dawn

Manage a small group stranded on an unfamiliar planet. Each survivor has distinct skills and traits, and you must attend to their health, mood, food, clothing, and shelter while establishing a foothold. Gather and salvage materials, hunt and farm food, and study local plants and animals to learn how they can be used. Build and furnish a base, arrange work and storage, and develop technology to improve production and daily life. Prepare for changing weather and attacks from alien wildlife by equipping survivors and constructing defenses. Across different scenarios and environments, develop your settlement toward its objectives; excursions can also send survivors away from the base to pursue opportunities.

Lead crash-landed survivors as they study alien life, build a colony, manage their needs, and repel wildlife attacks.
