About The Survivalists

About this game

A World of Adventure and Possibilities 

The island is alive! Your newfound home will change with day/night cycles as you explore and uncover its secrets. Hunt (or be hunted by!) animals for food and an array of mythical enemies, who aren’t necessarily pleased to see you. Get quests from a Mysterious Stranger or find them washed up on the shore. Prepare to trek into a procedurally generated wilderness, with a variety of biomes, for an adventure that’s unique to every player.

Build Together, Survive Together 

Finding the perils of island life too much or just looking to share your building expertise with friends? The Survivalists has you covered! Complete joint adventures, gain loot, trade and ultimately survive together and as you and up to three fellow castaways explore an island paradise.

Monkey See, Monkey Do! 

If you’re in need of a builder, a lumberjack or even a soldier, the monkeys on the island can be tamed and trained to help you with everyday tasks or back you up on raids to a fanatic camp! The Mimic System means a wide variety of functions can be performed by your banana loving friends, with monkey management becoming key to surviving the island’s challenges.

Get Crafty 

The secret to survival is to make the most of the resources around you. Whether that’s piecing together a primitive axe to chop wood or mixing up a refreshing fruit smoothie to keep the hunger at bay, you can discover recipes and expand your options across food, item or structure crafting trees. 

Run the Gauntlet 

Looking for an epic sword to hang on your hut wall or want to lay waste to encroaching hostiles? What you seek could be in one of the many labyrinths scattered around the island. However, getting your hands on the loot won’t be easy so any would-be raiders will need to prepare for their treasure hunting escapades.

The Survivalists is a pretty fun game, however if you do decide to play it I recommend playing it with friends as it makes the experience much more enjoyable. So far I have only played it for about 6 hours and its all ready been quite fun. But beware, the other islands will frick you up if you're not well prepared.

A truly great game. Personal favorite. If you've played any of the Escapist series, or enjoy survival crafting games, it's definitely worth your while. Also, this game likely got ruined by early access -- I actually played the demo when it originally came out, and it was no where near the game it is today. There is a DLC with hats, but thats literally it. Often on sale for like 6 usd.
