What is Machine Mind?

Machine Mind is a single-player action-strategy game set on Earth after a virus and nuclear war. With your consciousness trapped in a machine after a crash, you explore ruined locations and try to reconnect with an orbital station. You gather resources, craft weapons, rebuild bases, and assign rovers to mining, construction, or defense while fighting raiders and dealing with sandstorms and radiation.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy balancing scarce resources and planning ahead
  • +you like combining hands-on combat with managing a rover fleet

Not for you if...

  • −you want fast progress with little resource gathering
  • −you prefer exploring without maintaining and defending a base
