Wayward is a survival rogue-like which casts you as a castaway; you must survive and thrive on a new island, starting with some basic stuff and decide what to pursuit from there; food, water, stone, wood, hides, friends? All are options! All that and more can be yours!
There are no levels; instead, you Level Up your Skills by using them.
Gameplay wise, think a top-down Skyrim without levels (or expensive voice acting).
There are less people to talk with, as it's More focused on Crafting and Action as opposed to chatting, and both Eating and Drinking are non optional, with Sleep/Resting being Encouraged to recover Stamina. So a more in-depth 2D Skyrim with a Crafting Focus; hard to go wrong with that :).
Really Good Music too, very Chill.
The game is still in early access, but is Fun to Play, and is updated frequently.
As if that's not enough, the game is $8! The Developer makes meaningful updates often, and he's super cool too! Hard to say no to Wayward.
I encourage you to watch as I dip my toes into this little gem, and make Wayward work my way.
