Brings what grabs you about CastleMiner Z: a sandbox with your own goals, building and crafting as well as an open world.

A zombie survival sandbox built on crafting, looting, base building and skill progression, where every seventh night a massive horde tests your fortifications. Played solo or in co-op, it blends first-person shooting with tower-defense tension.

Project Zomboid

Sandbox with your own goals

An unforgiving zombie survival sandbox where you loot, build, craft and train skills until your inevitable death. Its deep simulation and highly customisable rules turn every run into a personal survival story, solo or with friends.

The Forest

Playing together in co-op

After a plane crash you build shelters and traps in a dense forest while tribes of cannibals stalk and attack you. Creepy mutant-filled caves and the mystery of your missing son drive the exploration, and it's best played with friends in co-op.

Ark: Survival Evolved

Sandbox with your own goals

Stranded on an island full of dinosaurs, you gather resources, build bases and tame prehistoric beasts to ride and fight alongside you. On multiplayer servers it becomes a harsh, time-hungry struggle of tribes, raids and alliances.

Conan Exiles

Sandbox with your own goals

A survival sandbox set in the brutal world of Conan the Barbarian: you build bases and whole cities, endure hunger, cold and enemies, and rise from a lowly exile to a mighty warrior. Playable solo, in co-op, or on persistent online servers with siege warfare.

Raft

Building and crafting

You begin on a tiny raft in the middle of the ocean, collecting debris, expanding your floating home and exploring islands while sharks circle. Solo or in co-op, survival turns into a laid-back crafting and discovery voyage with a mysterious story.

Lurkers

Sandbox with your own goals

A chaotic 2D multiplayer sandbox about building, fighting and surviving zombies. Game modes like Bedwars and lots of freedom to shape and wreck the world keep things lively.

Minecraft: Java Edition

Sandbox with your own goals

The definitive sandbox: mine, craft, survive the nights and build anything you can imagine in an endless procedurally generated block world, solo or with friends on servers. The Java Edition adds a massive modding community on top.

Ark: Survival Ascended

Sandbox with your own goals

You are stranded on islands full of dinosaurs, taming and riding prehistoric beasts, building bases and surviving alone or with tribes of other players. The Unreal Engine 5 remake makes the huge sandbox world look far more impressive.

Vein

Sandbox with your own goals

A post-apocalyptic survival sandbox where you scavenge supplies, search abandoned buildings and defend your base, solo or with friends. Still in active development.
