Empyrion: Galactic Survival

Gameplay

Empyrion: Galactic Survival has all the features that a well-done science-fiction sandbox should have. The key aspect of the gameplay, though, is the survival. In the game, we visit various kinds of planets. On each of them, there are dangers that we should be vary of, including adverse weather conditions as well as different, and usually hostile, kinds of aliens. We have to be ready for anything, making sure we always have an adequate supply or air, food, and drink. These basic resources can be obtained in a number of ways, such as killing animals, growing plants, or utilizing what we've managed to find. Unique plants also allow us to prepare medications, which are equally vital to survival.

The procedurally generated game world consists of a myriad of planets and asteroids, so, having learned the basics and leaving the first planet, there is a lot of exploration to be done, both in the vast space and on the surface on various heavenly bodies. This is why construction is an important aspect of the gameplay. In the game, we can erect numerous kinds of objects from scratch, starting with spaceships to complex star bases. Empyrion also offers an advanced crafting system, thanks to which we can create useful tools and unique weapons. The available planets can be explored either using ship or on foot, should the environmental conditions allow it. What has to be remembered is that combat is inevitable: we will fight hostile aliens and wildlife both in space as well as on the surface.
