A shipwreck leaves you stranded on an unfamiliar planet in a galaxy threatened by the Red Darkness, an infection that mutates wildlife and spreads across worlds. Explore the planets, meet NPCs, and follow a story about resisting the threat and uncovering traces of an ancient civilization.
Gather and refine resources to make tools, weapons, equipment, and vehicles. Build planetary bases or design ships from blocks, then use them to explore, gather loot, trade with NPCs, take quests, and battle pirates and infected creatures.
Character skills, equipment tiers, and crafting recipes provide a path of progression as you visit more planets and star systems. Travel on the ground, through the air, and into space, using warp jumps to reach other systems; play solo or with others, or focus on building in Creative Mode.
Among the supplied reviews, players who enjoy the game often praise exploring varied planets and star systems, designing ships and bases, and gradually improving gear through crafting and progression. Some also like moving between planetary and space exploration, and describe solo play as a relaxed way to pursue the story or build freely. Other reviews criticize repetition, resource grinding, combat, and multiplayer problems.
Step into a boundless open world where every planet, every system, and every moment is yours to shape. Explore a universe rich with life, ancient mysteries, and untamed beauty. Fight back the Red Darkness menace as you mine resources, craft tools, weapons, and build vehicles that are essential for your odyssey. Collaborate with friends to battle colossal threats and bring hope to the galaxy. Adventure, creation, and survival await!
