Quick Introduction:

Hello Ateazi here, I am a health enthusiast as well as an avid gamer from time to time, today we are going to be looking a space game known as Astroneer. A sci-fi, sandbox where you can do anything imaginable, let's dive in!

----------------------------------

What do you do in Astroneer?

As an Astroneer, your duty is to explore the dangerous worlds set before you, and their deepest, darkest caverns. Blast through the terrain to uncover precious artifacts and materials you can use to fuel your quest to make your way upon other planets, figuring out what mysteries await. Along the path to figure out the universe, you will find out not everything will come as it seems.

What can you do?

In Astroneer you can build your own base however you would like, you start out by landing on a planet with a home base like center pod. You must gather resources in order to expand your base, adding on more and more pods to your bases' collection. Collecting these resources requires tactful decisions because you have an oxygen tank at which you can only go so far before you start to suffocate. Not to mention your suit has a set amount of power as to which you can use to mine, and gather resources. After used for a short while it will be drained and must be recharged.

---------------------------------------

Dig deep, you must go deep into caverns to find valuable stones, gems, and artifacts. These caves, and caverns can pose a threat to you and your friends, so make sure you are prepared for the expedition that could make or break your entire operation. These minerals you are looking for help advance your base as well as aide you in your suit advancements. Making battery packs, and oxygen tanks so you can go deeper, and further than the last time. Finding more artifacts, and learning new technology.

Looks pretty neat! I enjoy games where you can build up a community. I don't think I've ever played one with a space theme, usually it's more primitive building.

Those are the best games in my opinion, you should totally check this one out if you ever get the money, or time. I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the comment!

This actually looks pretty neat. I might have to find some more gameplay on this game.

Do you feel like it offers more than a lot of other sandbox games out right now?
