Shared: Permadeath, Procedural Generation

Completely free, permanently complete, and built by one person responding to a YouTube dare. If you have 90 minutes and a friend with a Steam account, there is no excuse not to try Muck.

Shared: auto-admitted, Permadeath

A survival sim where the shooting is rare, brutal and unforgiving. Bring patience and a decent headset. If you need a fight every ten minutes, this will bore you into uninstalling.

Shared: auto-admitted, Permadeath

An extraction shooter where completing the objective screams your location to everyone else on the map. Brilliant audio, brutal onboarding, and a relaunch its own playerbase still argues about.

Shared: Physics Sandbox

A sandbox where you spawn ragdolls and subject them to every form of chaos imaginable. No goals, no rules, just creative destruction at your own pace.

Shared: auto-admitted

A survival game that stops being about survival: 30 days in, it turns into a four-season logistics puzzle you solve with friends, a wiki tab, and a very busy crock pot.
