We Love It's Guide to…

Stormworks: Build and Rescue

You run a search-and-rescue service in an open world of oceans, islands, and remote facilities. Build block-based vehicles—such as boats, helicopters, aircraft, and submersibles—and configure their systems with in-game logic or Lua. Test your creations on land, at sea, and in the air as you respond to missions. Activities include rescuing people, fighting fires, repairing oil rigs, and transporting cargo. Dynamic weather and waves put vehicles to the test, and missions can be created and shared. Creative mode provides tools for building without survival restrictions. In career mode, complete missions to earn money, manage resources, and expand your service with new bases and components. Cooperative multiplayer supports missions with friends, and vehicles can be shared through the Steam Workshop.

Build and program custom vehicles, then pilot them across a stormy open world to handle rescues, repairs, and other missions.
