What is CryoFall?
CryoFall is a top-down, open-world survival game set on a desolate planet that once held a colony. You gather resources, craft equipment, farm, and expand a base while advancing from primitive tools to industrial technology. You can play alone or with others on PvE or PvP servers.

- +you want a noncompetitive PvE survival option
Not for you if...
- −you dislike repeated resource gathering during long progression
- −you want to manage colonists rather than one survivor
- −you prefer structured levels over open-world survival
