Steel Seed

Steel Seed is an action-adventure game set in a dark science-fiction world where humanity is close to extinction. After a catastrophe made Earth uninhabitable, machines took control of the remnants of humanity’s survival. You play as Zoe, investigating a hostile underground facility in search of answers and the key to humanity’s survival.

The underground facility

Built by machines for machines, the vast facility contains regions ranging from towering industrial landscapes to eerie biodomes. Each has its own environmental storytelling, hazards and secrets. You explore a hand-crafted world filled with enemies and dynamic combat as the story examines what defines humanity.

Zoe and Koby

Zoe’s only ally is KOBY, a prototype flying drone. KOBY helps her solve puzzles through interactions with the environment and offers guidance, communicating through chirps and visual cues. The pair work together in combat, while KOBY also serves as Zoe’s emotional anchor in the desolate facility.

Stealth and combat

You can use shadows, distractions and the environment to evade or take down enemies. Combat pits you against different enemy types and challenging bosses, each with unique abilities. Interactive environments support creative problem-solving during encounters.

Zoe’s abilities can be tailored through three skill trees with 40 upgrades.

Zoe’s story

The narrative follows Zoe’s evolution and explores the boundaries between human and machine, trust and control, resilience and despair.
