Raft (Early Access) – Survive the Treacherous Ocean on Nothing but a Floating Piece of Driftwood

Raft is a realistic survival game where you’re stuck on a small…raft…in the ocean and you need to fish out all your supplies from the depths!

The game plays similar to any other survival game- the only goal is to survive. You have hunger, health, and hydration just like Subnautica, Ark, and Rust. There’s no other goal than keeping yourself hydrated, satiated, and healthy.

Of course, many players find this kind of game very appealing and very entertaining. And for good reason.

Raft starts you out with just you and a floating platform made out of wooden planks, some rope, and a flagpole-like structure. You also get a giant hook tied to the rope which will be your primary means of getting supplies from the engulfing ocean. There’s literally no land in sight and you’re really stranded in the middle of nowhere.

So, you’ll use your trusty hook to go fishing for treasures (and trash) that floats by your drifting raft. You can gather loot such as thatch, wood, barrels, scraps, and plenty of materials to make items. The game has a crafting system that lets you build anything from axes, water purifiers, seeds, fishing rods, spears, ramps, chests, cooking stations, and even expand your raft with buildings. You get that loneliness feeling and it really does a good job of making you feel stranded.

It’s just you, the ocean, and of course, sharks.

That’s right. Sharks.

There are treacherous sharks that swim around hunting for their next meal (you) and they’ll literally lunge out of the water and try to take a bite of you. If it misses, it’ll get stuck on your driftwood, leaving you an opportunity to kill it and get some food.

But of course, you can build walls to block off sharks. And also build windows and extra flooring as well. Eventually, the raft turns into an almost a floating house. It can get very intricate and detailed.

The sharks will keep taking bites out of your adobe though- so be sure to watch out for them.

Raft has gorgeous graphics and sound for that immersion. The game was released a while ago, but it’s now making a comeback and ready for another playthrough.

You can sail the seas and survive with this ocean simulator survival game, and it’s completely free to play still so get in on it while you can. This is an opportunity for such a gem of a game.
