About Craterlands
Craterlands is a 2D sandbox adventure set in a post-apocalyptic world filled with danger, mystery, and endless possibilities! Mine, build, craft, and fight your way through diverse environments as you uncover the secrets of a shattered civilization. Rescue survivors, establish thriving settlements, and develop powerful technologies to automate your creations. Whether you're exploring dangerous caverns, battling fearsome bosses, or building your dream base, the adventure is yours to shape!
Explore a vast, interconnected world full of adventure!
Establish your base and journey through diverse regions, or unlock a rocket to explore entirely new planets! Experience a dynamic day/night cycle with changing enemies and seasonal environments. Team up with up to three friends to build, explore, and take on epic bosses together!
Level up your skills simply by playing!
Craterlands features eight unique skill categories that improve naturally through your actions. Build Movement by exploring, Utility by mining and chopping trees, and Fitness through combat. Specialize in five distinct combat skills—Weaponry, Mysticism, Shamanism, Archery, and Marksmanship—each improving as you use them. Play your way and watch your character grow stronger with every adventure!
Rescue survivors and bring your towns to life!
Assign NPCs specialized roles like Blacksmith, Forester, Scientist, and more! These residents do more than just sell items—they can automatically craft goods, plant and water crops, and follow their own daily routines. Build a thriving community where everyone has a role to play!
Power up your creations with complex electrical systems!
Connect lights, machines, and gadgets using electrical wiring to bring your base to life. Automate your creations and use network controls to manage lighting and electrical signals, opening up endless possibilities for your builds!
Take your production to the next level with automation!
Connect machines using conveyor belts and transport tubes to create automated crafting systems. Move resources, manufacture parts, and streamline production to keep your base running like a well-oiled machine!
