A mix of Early Access and finished titles
It’s a hell of a week to put on a survival-themed bundle, what with No Man’s Sky eating evenings for the foreseeable future, but some of these games in the Humble Survive This Bundle are worth adding to your library (on the off chance you’ll get around to trying them for longer than a cursory look).
Pay what you want:
- Tharsis
- Savage Lands
- Kholat
Pay more than the average (under $5 at the time of writing):
- Space Engineers
- Rust
- Shelter 2
Pay $14 or more:
- Planetbase
While I haven’t played or even kept up with Rust in ages, that game is mighty enthralling if you can convince some friends to join the same server and work out a schedule. Going it alone can be a much more unforgiving experience — so many things out to kill you! — though that solo approach is worth trying, too, if only for the paranoia-filled moments when you run into a well-armed group alone.
I can’t personally speak much to the others, but Planetbase — a game about designing, building, and running a colony on a distant planet — looks neat. I hadn’t even heard of that before!
