The 4th mystery game in the Epic Games calendar
TerraTech
TerraTech is an open-world construction and exploration game developed and published by Playload Studios. The whole story takes place on a hostile planet.
The player steps into the shoes of an intergalactic prospector who has just arrived on this planet. He will have to explore it to find resources (and collect and store them), build vehicles (to cover as much surface area as possible) then defend himself.
Depending on the different modular blocks he has, the player will be able to build different types and sizes of vehicles (land, air or hybrid). You will have to be able to adapt to the environment. Indeed, you must be able to progress both in the middle of the desert and in the middle of the forest. The player should also remember that enemies may not be very far away when building vehicles.
In addition to a single player mode, TerraTech has a multiplayer mode in which participants can compete or cooperate. The latter offers several types of games: Co-Op Campaign, Co-Op Creative, Death Match or Sumo.
In summary, TerraTech is a sandbox game of construction and survival in an open world that can be hostile. It will appeal to all players who are looking for challenges, an intuitive and free construction system and who want to be able to play solo as well as against other players. There is enough to occupy your time for hours.
