A story-driven RPG, Crashlands+ sees gamers unlock more than 500 craftable items as they explore the in-game world and learn its secrets as they go. And there's a lot to learn!

Craft, battle, and quest your way through Crashlands, an outlandish, story-driven Crafting RPG overflowing with sass!Become Flux Dabes, a galactic trucker whose latest shipment gets derailed by a chin-strapped alien menace named Hewgodooko, leaving you stranded on an alien planet. As you hustle to retrieve your packages you'll become enmeshed in a nefarious plot of world domination, which will require all of your wits and both of your glutes to overcome. Learn recipes from the local sentient life, make new friends, uncover ancient secrets and deadly bosses, tame everything and build yourself a home-away-from-home as you learn to thrive on planet Woanope.

Apple isn't saying exactly when we should expect Crashlands+ to land, but gamers can pre-register for the download via the App Store now.
