About DYSMANTLE

✦ AI summary

Explore a desolate post-apocalyptic island packed with crafting, creature combat, and base-building as you scavenge 99% of destructible objects and work toward escape. Break free from survival grinding with permanent upgrades, fishing, farming, cooking, monster taming, and puzzle-solving that let you grow stronger and truly thrive in a handcrafted open world gone wild.


As you ascend from your shelter after the long long years, a brave new old world awaits you. A world inhabited with nasty and vile creatures. A world with no other human soul to be seen. A world with nature in reigns now. A world that's about to get even worse.

You need to find a way to escape the wretched island. But before that, enjoy the bittersweet apocalypse.
  • 💥 Break over 99% of all objects for materials with the right tools. No barrier will stop you.
  • 🔪 Fight with (or run away) nasty and vile creatures of the post-apocalyptic era.
  • 🌵 Explore the handcrafted open world and uncover its mysteries.
  • Survive. Clear areas of monsters and claim them as yours.
  • 🔨 Build outposts to establish your presence.
  • 💎 Craft permanent weapons, tools, outfits, and trinkets.
  • 🐫 Hunt various game or tame them for your post-apocalyptic zoo ranch.
  • 🌱 Farm nutritious plants and reap the rewards as the crop gets ripe.
  • 🏆 Solve puzzles above ground and underground in the Tombs of the Old Ones
  • 🎣 Fish cunning scaly things under the watery surface.
  • 🍰 Cook delicious recipes for permanent stat and ability upgrades.
  • 🗿 Unravel the mysteries of the strange island.

Explore the ruins of the past and discover technology from the hitech era. Gain technological advantage against the hostile environment. Or go deeper and recover the ancient lost knowledge from the hidden tomb chambers of the old ones. Acquire materials with almost magic-like properties and use them to craft insanely powerful gear.

Over 99% of everything can be broken for materials with the right equipment. Do that, and collect the sweet nectar of the old world: plastics, rubber, and metals. There is a reasonable number of different materials to gather. Find Recipes to craft permanent items and upgrades.

Explore the vast hand-crafted open world and build Outposts to establish your presence. Claim back the land area by area. Find hidden treasures and solve puzzles long ago forgotten. Find your means of escaping the island.

The world after the end is inhabited by nasty creatures. Something vile has affected most of the wildlife and former human inhabitants of the island -- turning them into aggressive beast-like creatures. Slay them and collect their loot. Harvest their organs and provide them eternal rest. Or run away and come back when you're stronger. Fight using various melee and ranged weapons. Create traps and lure monsters in. Do whatever it takes.

You will not be fighting just to maintain the status quo. This IS NOT a game about starving. You won't be constantly looking for a tasty cockroach to fill your over-metabolic stomach while waiting for the unavoidable bliss that is death. You will never die of hunger. You will get more powerful, and unlock permanent upgrades. The world is a dangerous place, and you may take a few steps back once in a while, but eventually you will thrive.

Enjoy the bittersweet apocalypse.

[h1]Volume over substance. Famine without Feast.[/h1] Dysmantle is a game that I've had on my list for quite some time.

But, every time it fell on sale I was busy playing something else, or had funds committed to other things. The recent summer sale was the first time that was not the case. So, I finally picked it up. And honestly? This is becoming one of the few purchases I've ever made that I regret. Dysmantle follows a simple core formula. Break things to upgrade your tools to break more things. Repeat. Do so to learn the fate of the island you're trapped on, and escape it. The problem is that the game blunders this formula early on. After your first hour or so, you're suddenly going to be locked into a famine state where you're searching for the materials that you need to get the next upgrade you need. And then, when you get that upgrade? You'll realize that you're 5 damage below the threshold that you need to cross to be able to break bigger things. Now you need another upgrade. Except, maybe there ISN'T another upgrade that you can see. Because the upgrade is gatekept behind t…

The ultimate kick back night for an exhausted couple. Just enough difficulty to keep us entertained and strategizing, but you can also totally mentally log out and just grind. It's cozy enough for a cozy player and adventurous enough for an rpg player. It's our go-to date night game.
