About Ruinlander
The events in the game take place several decades after the global cataclysm, which led to the emergence of large areas of radioactive wasteland. On the territories untouched by the cataclysm formed city-states, strengthened by the influx of refugees, each with its own orders and fiercely competing with neighbors for the remaining resources. Small villages and settlements fell under the control of such cities, or were destroyed by various gangs of those who did not wish to hold on to the remnants of humanity - raiders, cannibals, sadists and sectarians. A multitude of gangs, from small groups to armies, filled the habitable territories. In addition to maintaining the basic needs of food, water, and rest, the player must make choices that affect the world in one way or another in the face of new threats in the form of disease and mutation. The player's decisions can bend the world toward restoring humanity or give it over to rapid natural selection.

I never really say things like this, but I found it so bizarre that for a fictional sandbox game, all 15 character portraits are white men. It just feels so deliberate at that point that It didn't feel right playing this game anymore. Like definitely far from accidental. When making 15 characters surely the thought has crossed their mind to add a bit of diversity in there, so surely they made an intentional choice not to do so. Ick.4 found this helpful
Negatives reviews don't mean the game itself is bad, just lack of appreciation for Old School type games. Just needs more fine tuning and QoL and 1.0 release won't be far. Been waiting for EA on this Title myself since the Demo.3 found this helpful
I've been wanting this game since the Demo first came out. It is by a single Dev and he does listen. So playing the 1.0 there is a difference. I will give him a 2 thumbs up for releasing the game. With the knowledge that he does listen to what need to be improved. I am super happy that he made sandbox mode!3 found this helpful
This is an absurdly difficult game. I know some love that. I already have a job, so working at a factory for 20 shifts, to have enough money to buy equipment that does me no good is not on my list of fun.2 found this helpful
Really nice hardcore survival game. Current state of the game already allows for a quite long playtime, many things to do if you don't mind some grind. If you liked NeoScavenger you will like this one.2 found this helpful
