    Vintage Story, a Minecraft alternative that’s much more focused on survival and primitive technology. It’s sold only on its website.

      Got this recently for my wife and I to play together and we are loving it so far. Just about reached bronze but don’t have a reliable supply of tin and winter is setting in so we are looking forward to getting our base set up and exploring some caves and ruins. We’ve got plenty of food, just hoping to squeeze another set of flax out of the farm before it’s too cold.

      We watched Rubix Raptors YouTube series on it and loved the mix of chill crafting with more hardcore survival mechanics and a little dusting of cosmic horror.

      It’s also pretty cheap for what you’re getting at about £20 it’s still in early access but is totally functional. We’ve played over 20 hours and haven’t hit a single bug which broke anything (just had our player models not display properly a couple of times). It’s also got really excellent built in modding support and what looks like a shed load of excellent mods.

      VS is great. It’s what Terrafirmacraft would have been as a game instead of a mod, and it has a fairly vibrant modding community of its own. I’d still like to see some more development on it but it’s great so far.
