Our take on OxyRail
The defining constraint is oxygen scarcity: the train is both the base and the place where players must secure breathable conditions for people, plants, and animals while expanding it.
What is OxyRail?
OxyRail is an open-world survival game centered on a train that serves as a mobile base.
Players gather materials, build carriages, upgrade train components, and construct defenses while managing oxygen in a world where breathable air is scarce. Survival activities include planting, farming, fishing, cooking, exploration, and combat against hostile creatures and oxygen bandits. Research unlocks technologies and items, including options for light automation. Players can raise chickens, breed fish, display rare catches, trade resources with merchants, and use Oxygen Coins to purchase supplies. The game supports online co-op for 1–8 players, with shared activities such as exploration, fishing, construction, and train development.
