Craftopia
Craftopia is the brand new multiplayer open-world survival action game.
We have imagined what would happen when we combine our favorite video games altogether.
Chop trees and mine stones as in Sandbox,
Explore the world as in Open-world,
Fight the hunger as in Survival,
Cultivate and harvest as in Farming,
Collect loots in dungeons as in Hack-and-slash,
Automate activities as in Factory management,
Hunt monsters and creatures as in Hunting action,
Cast magical spells as in Fantasy RPG.
Now we have a utopia for all of us. That is Craftopia.Farming20+ crops are available for you to grow. Of course, you can grow crops one by one, but there are more you can do. With the power of agricultural machines, you can have large scale fields.
While enjoying your self-sufficient life, why not make your colorful orchards?
Industrialization and AutomationYou can automate every single item gathering. When you get tired of cutting woods and mining stones? Let’s automate!
…Tired of automation of simple activities? Then let’s start using belt-conveyers to build huge factories.
BreedingBy throwing Monster Prism at creatures, you can catch them as a pet. Not only animals like cows and deer, but most of the monsters are also tamable. Monsters, Gotta Catch ‘Em All!
Exploring DungeonsWhen the detector starts beeping, it’s the sign that you’re getting close to a dangerous dungeon. Back to the town to equip yourself, then enter the dungeon in the hope of finding treasures. It changes its shape every time you enter. At the end of the dungeon, you will encounter bosses to fight.
You will gain new abilities when you unleash the power of the world.
FishingIn Craftopia, you can enjoy fishing too. Taste some fresh fish, and craft a shield from turtle shells! Once you get used to fishing on the coastline, it’s time to build a ship to sail! Let’s catch a whale!
VehiclesHoverboards, motorbikes, helicopters, automobiles, biplanes, tanks, air balloons, and machinery… Gather materials to craft what you want to ride! You can share a ride with your friends to explore the world together!

You can build factories, explore dungeons, catch fish with your friends. The choice is yours! You can be an assassin if you want to.

This game gets a bad rap thanks to the popularity and similarity of the developers more well known game, Palworld. I want to put a disclaimer that I have not played Palworld (but plan to once I am done with Craftopia), and I have only ever played since the seamless update.
Want to casually farm and get rich selling cabbages? You can do that.
Want to gear up, become a badass and take on a dragon? You can do that.
Want to build your own custom base and crazy automation inventions? You can do that.
Want to take your characters own waste, turn it into salt peter, and use it to make gunpowder so you can craft bullets? You can do that.
Want to grind bosses for loot and gear? You can do that.
Want to capture mobs and raise pets? You can do that.
You can play this game as chill as you want or as grindy as you want and that's what's great about it.
To directly address some of the issues I've read from negative comments:
-I've seen comments about people having issues with game saves not functioning correctly. I've had no problems with that. The game actually has a built in save backup system for restoring saves if something goes awry.
-I've seen comments about bad performance, both graphically, and with multiplayer. My GF and I play together via LAN and neither have had issues with regular performance graphics wise. We have had one session where she ran into issues. It was like on minecraft when you look at a bad chunk and your framerate tanks but but after she restarted the game everything went back to normal. (we have only ever played on LAN, we have not played on hosted servers)
-I've seen comments about the game being abandoned. They literally just posted an update 2 days ago.
-Before buying the game I tried to find recent video reviews. The most recent I could find being from ~4 months ago. One of the main issues that was mentioned in some of those videos were a lack of fast travel. That is no longer a thing. There are waypoints you can fast travel to EVERYWHERE.
A couple of small issues I have had are:
- The stamina bar seems to be either inconsistent in what triggers it to drain or there are some hunger mechanics at play that are not explicitly explained. At times I can take off running and the bar doesn't drain at all. Others I take off and it will start draining as expected. My glide skill is maxed yet there are occasions where my stamina drops very quickly when I start to glide. However, if I'm cliffside and make a point to let my stamina fill completely before triple jumping and gliding as far as I can I have no issues.
- As mentioned previously, there are plenty of fast travel locations. When we are playing together I host and tend to fast travel a lot. When I do and have the loading screen on my end, my GF's side does hitch and slow for moment before I'm loaded back into the new area but then performance goes back to normal for her.
- We play primarily with controller and there are times that controls are... clunky. I have yet to figure out how to extract enchantments without grabbing the mouse but to be fair the game page does only show partial controller support.
- You will see new enemies in each area as you progress through the ages but goblins are a mainstay so get ready to kill lots of them, regular goblins, fire goblins, electric goblins, poison goblins, etc. Goblins goblins goblins.
Overall, I've definitely got my money's worth and I'm still nowhere near done. I had this on my wishlist for a long time before I finally got it and wish I would have purchased sooner.

This game combines alot of really cool and wonderful elements from all of our favorite games such as satisfactory, breath of the wild, genshin impact. the classic survivalcraft with a twist. you can tell its in early access and if youve played legacy, alot of items arent in the game anymore but i think they have improved so many mechanics including ridding the durability system. I love this game, they have alot of work to do still but even in the state its currently in i enjoy it. if youre thinking about buying this, do it, even just to try it. youll be supporting the devs to make this game better and youll already have it purchased when it full releases :D

Palworld without Pals, but with much more different mechanics, game-systems and MUCH more bugs and unfinished pieces.
Also, because Palworld is out (from same developers) - this one will be in early access forever now.

A rock solid game, at least after the open world update. The developer seems to really have given this game some of their love, blood, sweat, and tears and it shows. The game needs more work on translations, more work on descriptions, and more character animations - but they're little complaints. The devil is in the details though, as they say, and these little problems would turn this game from "zelda from wish" to a legendary title.

I think that Craftopia has come a long way from the game it used to be, I'd highly recommend it to anyone in love with open world sand boxes with dungeons, character customization and unique vast amounts of fighting styles with weapons to follow.

The game is so poorly optimized that u need a NASA pc to run it.
Graphical settings are a nightmare and the graphics itself is poor in any angle, shadows are the worst.
About the gameplay itself, well, with the updates it gradually gets where it needs to go, and it is enjoyable at this stage.

it's like taking zelda, minecraft, and pokemon and then putting them in a blender
