Start empty-handed in the stone age. Learn to survive by foraging, hunting, crafting, and fighting. Smelt copper, create bronze alloys, learn to work iron, and ultimately reach the steel age. Every breakthrough is earned.
Take on the role of a lost being and discover the remnants of a fallen civilization. Encounter wayward creatures, find old stories, battle temporal instability, and endure temporal storms. The answers lie beneath.

Ten years of continuous development. The engine fully simulates seasons, soil fertility, rock strata, weather patterns, rainfall, snow accumulation, food spoilage, body temperature, farming, block physics, and more.
