Gameplay

Stranded: Alien Dawn is a simulation video game which tasks players to guide a group of settlers marooned on a deadly alien planet and ensure their survival. At the beginning of the game, players can select several starting scenarios, each with their own goals and objectives. The game features several

difficulty levels, and the game allows players to adjust various parameters of gameplay such as the aggression level of alien lifeforms and the frequency of natural disasters.[1][2]

Players need to manage the crew and assign tasks for each survivor, occasionally controlling them directly. They need to gather resources, observe alien lifeforms, and eventually, plant crops, hunt for food, and build a self-sustaining community. The maps are procedurally generated, and players can send off a scout out in a hot air balloon to collect natural resources, and sometimes recruit new survivors.[3] Each survivor also has their own strengths and weaknesses and distinct personality, which affects the performance and the happiness of other crew members. As player progresses, their settlement or outpost will gradually expand, and they will unlock new technology that improve the survivors' well-being, and weaponry that can be used against hostile lifeforms.[1][2]
