An excellent game. It's a bit like Terraria. I have to make that comparison, because most people will. But it's sci-fi, and you start the game with a gun and a miniaturiser, which sucks up dirt, rock, etc and stores it. It essentially acts like a Terraria pickaxe. You need to get materials to make and upgrade items, including weapons, tools and turrets. At night, you get attacked by enemies that you've killed before. This is a great idea, and lets you play at your own pace. I finished the game in multiplayer after 34 hours. If you like base-building, you could likely spend a lot of time building. It doesn't have random furniture or other such items, though, so you can't personalise your base all that much. Whatever you can make is functional. I definitely recommend this game! I'm sure I'll come back to replay it in a while.

Absolutely fun game, replaying it for the 2nd or the 3rd time already over the past 2-3 years, and every time it feels just great! Thank you, GG <3 Suits great for those who seek playing something chill, but interesting, not that posh as AAA games, but with work on details better than in a half of them.. Of course, with a little bit of a challenge =) P.S. Would love to see Dig or Die II - with a story(well, just other world and new/improved game mechanics, on the same engine :D) after we leave this planet, or maybe even about what we were doing before!
