About Ash Survival
Survive. Build. Ride. Trade. Defend.
Ash Survival is an open-world survival game set on a remote island covered in dense forests, abandoned buildings, and scattered resources. Scavenge for supplies, build a secure base, grow your own food, and defend what’s yours.
Explore the island to discover lootable houses, usable vehicles, and valuable natural resources. Use bikes and cars to travel faster—but be careful: each vehicle has a damage and fuel system, so driving comes at a cost. There’s no fixing them—use them wisely or lose them.
The island is not safe—aggressive animals roam the wild and won’t hesitate to attack. Survive harsh weather conditions, manage your body temperature, and adapt to a dynamic day and night cycle that affects visibility and danger. Eat and drink with animated food and water systems that keep your character alive and healthy.
Build a base powered by generators, set up player-run vending machines to trade with others, and deploy automated turrets to keep your home secure. Whether you're farming to survive or building to dominate, your strategy is your story.
