I tried this game out when before they released the "New Version". It felt too old for its time and quite clunky. As a Game Designer myself I could see it's potential but it just wasn't keeping me hooked. Now with the new version it's much more intuitive, a lovely chill experience. It's now a game that is easy to learn if you've played any other survival building game. What makes you stay? The graphics, the unique ways of crafting and the limitless potential you have in bringing your creations to life.

This is the best game I have played and I have had many over the years. If you are a creative person or particular in what you want in a game it allows all that. You make your own story and world. You can add anything from a big list from animals to enemies. You do not have to accept just a few buildings like other games because you can build anything you like from a hut to a castle to a whole village, Ancient or Modern. There is Survival. Cold and hot seasons. Woods, deserts, snow. You can invite a friend into play. You can make it easy or hard. If you just want to build you can select Creative. You are not stuck with that as in game you can if bored with building you can just change it back to Survival again. It is what I would call the best do it yourself game ever. You can blueprint your building to put into another world or share with a friend. I team up with my daughter who is more into the combat than me with the building and we have had lots of fun.

I bought this game on day one over ten years ago. The devs have never given up on it, they just keep making it better and better. Thanks for your dedication. It has been a great journey.

I've been following Rising World for a long time. Started playing on the Java version right about the time they made the switch to Unity. That took a lot longer than expected, but for anyone reading, this game is anything but abandoned. It continues to grow and the Unity version is now the premier game of the two version, both of which are available for one purchase. The developer is dedicated and continues to add new features to the game as quickly as he is able. There is still more to go, but the game, as it stands today, has a lot to offer. A few of the features: - Best construction system in the gaming world, bare none. When they say build anything, they mean it. - Massive endless world to explore with three region types available today and more to come. Each region is composes of many subregions that are each unique. - Great crafting system with a progression that will continue to evolve over time - Great community and online servers with massive worlds in development. Just some of what RW has to offer. There is more with even more in development. The downsides as of the date of the store page update to the Unity version, is that the crafting system is still in development and while it has everything needed to create infinitely, it does need some tweaking and more general recipes, and we're anxiously awaiting moveable objects such as trains and cars. The survival mode is still a bit weak as well, with endless food supplies, though that will change soon with the addition of food spoilage. We also need a lot more in the way of clothing and armor, and I'm still waiting for dungeons to crawl around in and sack like in the Java version. Everything I've just listed though is nearing completion in development. Very little requires new technology or heavy development now, they just need polish to release. Development is slow at times too, but updates are regular and each one is usually packed with additional components. Now that the Unity version has taken over as the prime advertised product, it will begin to grow in features and capabilities, and the developer is very consious of not breaking anything in existing worlds so that you are never forced to start over. He is also very active on the forums and extremely responsive to issues that come up and bugs are fixed very fast. Overall, RW is one of the best games out there, strictly my opinion. Been playing for years and will continue to play for years to come.

My nearly 500 hrs in the game haven't even scratched the surface of how much more time I'll be playing before I'm done with it. The building system in the game is virtually second to none. You can build with as much or as little detail as you wish, you need only look around one of the many multiplayer servers to see examples of the amazing structures that users have built from scratch. The user base, while not the biggest of any game out there, are passionate, friendly, and dedicated to the future of the game. They'll answer your questions, say hi when you log into a server, and appreciate over the things you create even when they're only basic and you're learning how to do the fancy things (ahem, me). I think the fact that the game is being ported to a new engine with a major update about to come out as I type this, it says a lot about the future of the game. It has been around for a while, but I can't think of many other games that have been around for this long whose developer is still working on the game in a major way, without some kind of monthly fee to urge them on. It says a lot about the developer, and the community that has rallied around the game. I encourage you to join that community.
