Rising World is a voxel based open-world sandbox game, featuring a procedurally generated world, playable in single and multi-player.
Developed by JIW-Games · Published by JIW-Games









You begin in a procedurally generated wilderness with basic tools. Play in survival mode and manage needs such as hunger, thirst, and temperature, or choose creative mode for building without those pressures.
Gather and mine resources, craft tools and equipment, hunt and fish, and explore biomes and underground caves. You can also farm, raise animals, and travel by mount or boat.
Build by placing and shaping individual pieces, with options for resizing, rotating, snapping, and saving designs as blueprints. Finding materials unlocks recipes and equipment; play alone or with others in multiplayer.
Reviewers often enjoy the detailed, flexible building system and the freedom to spend time creating, exploring, or surviving at their own pace. Many also praise the world’s scenery and atmosphere, and some enjoy playing with friends. Common reservations include a steep learning curve for building, laborious crafting, and limited exploration rewards or long-term goals; opinions differ on whether the slower pace and manual systems feel relaxing or tedious.
