Buy Stormworks: Build and Rescue PC key

Stormworks: Build and Rescue is a vehicle-building and rescue game in which you design, create and pilot an air, sea and land rescue service. You build block-based vehicles, program their behaviour and take them into a dynamic world of oceans and islands to handle crisis scenarios. Missions include rescuing survivors from the water, fighting fires, repairing oil rigs and operating nuclear power station machinery.

Build and pilot vehicles

Use the vehicle editor to assemble custom machines from a wide range of components, then use the in-game logic system to program how they behave. You can build rescue helicopters, boats, submersibles and other vehicles, with designs suited to specific missions. The physics playground includes hydrodynamics and displacement-buoyancy systems, which affect vehicles at sea.

The world spans over 15,000 square kilometres of ocean and islands, including open waters, island facilities and remote rigs. The day-night cycle and dynamic weather range from calm mornings to stormy nights and tsunamis. Strong winds can turn gentle ripples into heaving waves, putting your creations to the test. Every mission is unique, so you need to choose a vehicle suited to the task.

Game modes

Custom Creative mode provides dozens of tools and options, without the survival and realism rules that limit what you can build. You can create large, complex vehicles from the outset, including scale replicas of real-world machines and original designs.

Career mode follows your progress as you build a search and rescue service from humble beginnings to cover the Stormworks world map. Manage your finances, building space and personal safety, and complete missions to fund larger vehicles and new land bases. You unlock new locations and components as you progress.

Survival difficulty options add advanced systems, including engine and fuel mechanics, LUA-based microcontrollers, vehicle damage and fires that can spread. Player damage can come from falls and impacts, fire, prolonged exposure to the sea and hypothermia, rotor blades, water pressure and sharks.

Missions and multiplayer

You can create and share missions with the mission editor, and export and share your vehicles and missions through the Steam Workshop. Cooperative multiplayer lets you operate multi-crew vehicles and carry out complex missions that require planning and coordination.
