#RIMWORLD TRAITS STAGGERINGLY UGLY FULL#

And that’s it! It’s a tough but rewarding playthrough full of tough decisions - do you butcher an animal or two when things get lean? Do you build up a big food store to overwinter in the tundra, or go hell for leather to reach a milder climate? What happens if a pod full of futuristic megadrugs falls from the sky? The fate of the herd depends on your wise judgement. Your goal is then to move from the world map’s southernmost bit of tundra, to the northernmost, having at least a male and a female caribou alive at the end. For this scenario, you’ll want to crank the stat multiplier for “research speed factor” down to ten percent (so that things stay fairly neolithic), then engineer a tribal start with five people, some basic supplies and ten caribou. You wouldn’t have thought that a game about space colony survival would also double up as an incredible simulation of nomadic stone age animal herding, but it really does. Some gimmick playthroughs - for example, the dreaded Ice Sheet Challenge - are famous, but I’ve got a few recipes of my own I think you’ll enjoy. With your starting colonists, equipment, location and even game rules open to complete customisation, you can make it into whatever settlement management game your heart desires.

Even without the cornucopia of bizarre mods available, the game offers a ludicrous potential for finding new ways to play. Nevertheless, I keep finding reasons to come back to RimWorld, and I want to share a few of them with you. Still, when you’re used to coming back to a game and falling in love with it all over again every time it gets new content, it can feel weirdly sad when the developer decides their work is done.

It can be hard to remember, when so many sandbox-type games are constantly having new content shovelled into them like coal into a furnace, that games sometimes just… get finished. Since colony sim RimWorld left early access at the start of the year, it hasn’t changed.
