Having fled the destruction of his people, and shipwrecked on an island, our hero must rebuild, survive, and thrive.
Alone is an isometric survival RPG without the survival, eschewing certain challenging features in favor of a more relaxing experience. Collect resources and use them to craft items and weapons. Build and upgrade your settlement on a rich and fertile island. And hunt in the darkest forests, and slay the undead in the cursed crypts.
Explore and Claim the blighted islands that make up the world and become a Jarl worthy of the sagas
Follow a quest-driven storyline following your character’s journey that starts with a shipwreck, and leads them to restore a blighted world to it’s rightful state . Or treat the world as a sandbox and do your own thing.
Harvest resources on a procedurally generated island. Catch fish, fell trees, forage for food, and mine for metals and stone. Use the resources to build your home, and other buildings you will need to survive on this deserted island. Build farms to ensure a steady supply of food and raw materials, and attract traders to give you access to exotic goods. Improve your buildings with powerful upgrades, and build furniture and decorate them how you please.
Explore a procedurally generated forest, and hunt animals for their leather and meat. Or travel even deeper and be hunted by wolves and bears. And perhaps you might find treasures hidden within. Or look to what lies underneath the ground in your own island, a wealth of ores protected by sinister foes.
Turn your raw materials into tools, to help you harvest and craft more efficiently. Or turn them into weapons, armour, and shields to help you fight your enemies. Obtain rare materials from your hunting and exploration, and use them to make even stronger weapons. Use the cookhouse to mix and match food ingredients, and gain powerful bonuses to aid you in your quest.
Test your skill in combat against various enemies, defeat them and become stronger. Use special attacks and boosts to give yourself an edge. Explore the infinite depths of the cursed crypts, where the undead walk freely and treasure and knowledge can be found aplenty. Defeat boss monsters such as the Shaman or Fallen Knight, and use their knowledge to unlock more powerful attacks.
Repair your ship to unlock a procedurally generated world of islands, blighted with dark magics. Use your skills and gods-given powers to defeat the enemies within, restore them to their natural glory, and plant your own flag upon them. Restore the ancient watchtowers and gain the benefits of conquest.
Build a temple and leave appropriate sacrifices – the spoils of war – or marks of your own skill – and the gods may aid you on your quests. Use the result of your farming prowess to brew or cook marvellous recipes. Build the Jarl’s Hall and sit upon a throne worthy of a conquering hero of the sagas.
