Rust
Developer: Firepunch Studios
Platforms: PC
You may have heard of Rust before early in the development process, Firepunch Studios went for a title that played out similar to DayZ though the developers later scrapped the idea of fighting strictly zombies and worked for a more wilderness survival game. Much like Minecraft, Rust tosses players into the wilderness with the goal of surviving. At first, players are equipped with very basic tools though as they progress, players will find new blueprints to craft more advanced items and weaponry.
Unlike Minecraft, Rust only contains an online multiplayer mode which is one of the key aspects that keep Rust a tough game to master. Not only will gamers have to face against wild animals as the gather resources and blueprints but they may be pinned against other hostile players.
It’s highly advised within the world of Rust to join or start a clan in order for further protection against other groups along with having the luxury of housing with clan members as you prepare for raids and looting. Besides hostile players and animals, gamers will have to keep track of other minor daily occurrences to keep alive such as maintaining how much their character consumes food and their body temperature.
