Description

"Before the time of the giants, we lived freely under the Sun and Moon. Centuries have passed, but those stories of the surface world have been passed down through the generations. Now the giants are gone, and you, Vanguard, must venture out into the wilds once more, on an urgent mission. Be brave, and do not falter…"

Explore the vast “Land of the Small"

Traverse lake sized puddles, scale skyscraper sized trees, scramble through cavernous cracks in roads, as you experience a huge open world from a new perspective. Explore dense forests, hazardous swamps and strange ruins left over from the time before. Uncover lore and knowledge from hidden NPCs scattered throughout the world and learn to survive in this vast wilderness.

Tame and ride creatures

Uncover recipes that will let you tame and ride an array of critters. Leap huge distances on the back of a Grasshopper, zoom around on a Damselfly, scurry from place-to-place on a Spider. This world and its inhabitants are yours to conquer.

Survive together

Play alongside friends with support for up to 10 players in multiplayer. Explore together, fight together, build together and survive the wilds as a team.

Build encampments on the ground or amongst the trees

Scavenge or refine resources to build your encampment with multiple material tiers, from leaves and twigs to sturdy stone. Pick your favourite spot in the world and build, or scale vast trees and claim your own settlement at the top.

Craft powerful armour sets

Collect powerful armours that provide you with resistances and abilities and mix them up to personalise your appearance. Glide through the skies in winged armour, swing from tree to tree with the grappling hook and many more.

Survive the Wilds

Most of the creatures you encounter will see you as lower on the food chain – Ants, Cockroaches, Beetles, Wasps, and Spiders all view you as a potential meal. Weather conditions and seasons are in constant flux so if you want to survive for another day, preparation is key.

I love this game... takes me back to my childhood where games were played for the love of it and not for the min-maxing of it all. Unfortunately, Tom, my Sawyer Beetle, died last night. Today I will dedicate my play

Its super fun. Similar to grounded but in a more fantasy setting. I only wish it had a deposit all similar items in all near by chests instead of having to hit the button in each chest. Still going strong and love the

I cannot recommend this game. It is a broken painful mess. Did I play it to completion, yes. Did I want to throw my PC out the window the entire time, also yes. This game feels and plays like it is still in alpha or at

Great concept, terrible execution. The combat is underwhelming, to say the least. Movement and attacks feel clunky, the companion AI is even worse, and you're more likely to die from buggy physics, collision issues, or

A unique little survival game about being a little fairy person in a forest with equal parts charme & jank. Makes for a great first-time experience if you can catch it on sale, does make you wish it had some of the

I hope they add a lot more content to this game that is not underground so much. New content was cool for sure but I really enjoyed the first moments of the game a lot more to be honest.
