Void Bastards

You guide a succession of prisoners from the Void Ark as they try to escape the Sargasso Nebula. From a small pod, choose which drifting ships to visit and weigh their supplies, dangers, and conditions before boarding. On each ship, explore in first person for food, fuel, ammunition, and crafting materials while managing oxygen and other hazards. Use weapons and gadgets against strange inhabitants, avoid them, or manipulate ship systems such as power and security to change your approach. Scavenged parts unlock and craft equipment for later expeditions. A dead prisoner is replaced by another with different traits; the current character’s carried supplies are lost, while crafting progress and unlocked items carry over. Gather specific components to advance the campaign, with additional challenges available.

Lead disposable prisoners through derelict ships, scavenging and fighting strategically to craft a route out of the Sargasso Nebula.
