Description

Nested Lands is a multiplayer settlement-building RPG set in a dark, plague-ravaged world where twisted madmen and bandits roam the land. Your life will depend on how well you manage and grow your settlement. Fortunately, you're not alone in this dark world — your peasants will help you gather resources, craft items, and build defenses as you lead them through danger and privation. But remember, every choice you make has consequences and can lead your village to prosperity or a senseless death from the plague. 

Start from a clean slate and build a brand-new civilization. Assign each peasant a specific role and order them to build, craft, or gather the resources you need to survive the hardships you will face. With dozens of upgradable buildings and hundreds of items to craft and customize, including farms and animals, you're free to shape your settlement as you see fit. But don't let your growing dynasty blind you — hostile forces lurk nearby, ready to spill your blood.

The only way to break through the endless darkness of Nested Lands is to gather the other survivors who share your plight, but have yet to fully give up hope. Save and recruit peasants during your journey across the world. But keep in mind that they will need your protection.
Harsh weather and the coming winter are also your sworn enemies, and the highly detailed world full of random events won’t grant you a single moment’s rest.

Start from nothing. Rise from the bottom, overcome monumental challenges, and make your fame echo across the Nested Lands. But be careful - all your decisions will be carefully watched and evaluated. Will your name be praised by all, or will its very sound instill fear into the common folk who dwell in this open world? The choice is yours.

The disfigured nature of the world makes survival even more challenging. Before facing other threats, you need to secure the basics — a lack of medicine can wipe your village out faster than any blade. Craft, improve your skills, and endure the harsh reality of Nested Lands. Brutal weather and the coming winter may be your greatest foes, but random encounters won't offer any respite.

Play your way - explore the Nested Lands alone, or embrace the horrors of this dystopian world with your friends in co-op mode.

First, I want to say that this game has a lot of potential. The concept is there, and I think it will be great once it's cleaned up a bit. That said, I think there is a lot of work that needs to be done before it gets

Wow! This game freaking sucks. Like I get that it's new and just came out a few months ago, so there is a lot that you cant access yet, but still I should be able to come back to the game from where I saved last. I

One of my favorite survival games. Still very early, no skills yet. So far the game has been improved alot. Its a slower pace survival, craft, base managing game. There is always something going on. I really enjoy this

This seemed promising but it's a bugfest. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY like I did. Also, terrible optimisation, runs about as smooth as sand paper, and it is an asset flip. So dissappointed. I may give it another try once
