Buy Archipelago: Island Survival PC key

Archipelago: Island Survival is a survival simulator with sandbox, trading and RPG elements, set in a medieval fantasy world. After your ship crashes, you begin on one of the Archipelago’s islands, gathering resources to craft stone weapons, tools and a simple raft. From there, you can travel north in search of new resources, uncover the Archipelago’s mystery and return home.

Gather and craft

Gather resources with tools such as pickaxes and axes, or loot them from defeated enemies. Use what you collect to craft items or trade with merchants. The game contains over 500 different items and resources, including some that can only be bought rather than gathered or crafted.

Explore and progress

At first, you have access to basic resources, and the islands are home to weak enemies and friendly natives. Farther north, resources become rarer and enemies stronger. You gain experience and levels by defeating enemies, gathering resources, crafting and taking other actions. Develop your character’s attributes, such as health and stamina, and improve weapon skills across 11 categories, covering melee and ranged weapons as well as magic.

Nearly every island has entrances to caves, enemy buildings or mazes. These are separate locations with their own features. Clearing a dungeon earns valuable loot and stops enemies from spawning on the island’s surface. The game includes over 40 dungeon and maze models.

Build and defend

You can build a base on each new island, choosing from more than 60 structures for crafting, defense, resource gathering and comfort. Fortify your base against waves of enemies that attack during storms.

Factions and trade

You encounter 17 factions across the Archipelago. Some are hostile and others neutral. Completing quests can improve your reputation with them and lower prices in their shops. Trading is a key part of the game alongside gathering and combat: sell surplus resources or crafted items, and buy what you need, including resources that cannot be gathered or crafted.
