Our take on Road to Eden
The game departs from a standard survival structure by making a long journey toward Eden the central objective instead of treating the base as the sole destination. It also ties recipe discovery to books and broken objects, replacing a purely menu-driven crafting progression with exploration-based discovery.
What is Road to Eden?
Road to Eden is a cooperative survival game viewed from behind the character, set among the ruins left by an alien attack.
Humanity’s remaining survivors operate from Eden, and players begin with no memories before traveling there. It can be played alone or through official dedicated and player-hosted servers. Crafting involves discovering recipes in books and damaged objects, collecting their required materials, and gaining character experience when items are made. Base building uses blocks, walls, defenses, traps, furniture, windows, doors, fabricators, and workstations. The world includes villages, caves, crash sites, bunkers, sewers, and procedurally created dungeons; one dungeon is available at present. Missions include removing infected from locations and finding uncommon items.
