About this game
One abandoned outpost, a handful of survivors, and a wasteland full of threats. In Outpost Simulator, you turn a last-stand shelter into a thriving settlement: part shopkeeper, part builder, part survivor. Serve the people who need you, defend what you build, and reclaim the open world one supply run at a time.
Serve the survivors
Survivors arrive looking for food, shelter, and safety. Every need you meet earns you money. Set up services, keep them stocked, and give people a reason to stay. Your settlement runs on what you provide.
Build and grow your outpost
Start with almost nothing and build outward: tents, gardens, water, power, a pub, a radio station, and more. Every structure upgrades, and every upgrade makes you stronger. Hire workers to automate the grind and turn a ruin into a stronghold.
Hold the line
When the raiders come, defend everything you've built with mines, auto-turrets, rifles, and your gravity gun. Loot supplies with it, move stock for customers, then rip enemies apart when the waves hit. One tool for building and battling.
Explore the wasteland
Take your survival van across an open world to scavenge supplies, unlock new items, and run missions from rescuing survivors to collecting fuel and securing areas. Seasons turn, prices shift, and tougher enemies wait deeper in the map as your outpost grows.
