Important Notes

Please review these important details before installation

Install necessary apps from Redist or _CommonRedist to ensure game launches without any problems.

Keep your antivirus on. If it quarantines a file and the game will not start, do not exclude the folder or switch protection off. Compare the archive's SHA-256 with the hash listed for the download, where there is one, then follow our Safety & Verification page to report it. If you decide to restore a file, restore that one file only.

Run the game as administrator only if it will not start or cannot save without it.

For a detailed guide, read the Installation Guide on our website.

Great game, works fine, a few issues with game consistencies but honestly you'll hardly notice anything. Wish there was multiplayer.

I have downloaded the zip file which is 3.65 GB in size. But when I extract it using the default Windows 11 zip extractor, the folder is only 14 MB. How to extract it properly? Thank you

Such a great game. I am a huge fan of "survival" and "crafting" games and this fits the bill perfectly. I am amazed too at the small footprint of the game as the graphics are great.
