The Riftbreaker™ is a base-building, survival game with Action-RPG elements. You are an elite scientist/commando inside an advanced Mecha-Suit capable of dimensional rift travel. Hack & slash countless enemies. Build up your base, collect samples and research new inventions to survive.
You seamlessly blend together several different gameplay genres, including base-building, tower defense, action-RPG, and resource management. As the mecha-suit-wearing protagonist, Captain Ashley Nowak, you must establish a base of operations on the alien planet of Galatea 37 in order to ultimately open a two-way rift back to Earth.
At the core of the gameplay, you construct various buildings and facilities to extract, refine, and store key resources like iron and copper. These resources automatically feed into a shared global inventory, eliminating the need for complex logistics and conveyor belt systems found in games like Factorio. However, you must still thoughtfully place and expand your facilities to gather resources efficiently and fend off enemy attacks.
Waves of hostile alien creatures constantly assault your base, requiring you to construct a variety of defensive towers and turrets. Different tower types excel against specific enemy types, encouraging you to research and build a diverse array of defenses. Careful tower placement and upgrading is crucial to surviving the increasingly challenging enemy waves.
When not managing the base, you can directly control Captain Ashley in thrilling real-time combat. Equipping a wide array of powerful weapons and abilities, you can hack, slash, and blast your way through hordes of alien monsters. Defeating enemies and exploring the environment allows you to unlock new research options and upgrades for your mecha-suit.
As you progress, you'll unlock new technologies, buildings, and equipment through a deep research tree. Simultaneously, you'll expand your operations by establishing additional outposts across Galatea 37's diverse biomes, each with their own unique resources and challenges. Carefully balancing base defense, resource gathering, and technological advancement is key to achieving victory.
The game offers a high degree of customization, allowing you to adjust variables like enemy strength, resource abundance, and weather conditions to tailor the experience to your liking. This, combined with the procedurally generated world and randomized enemy waves, provides near-endless replayability for those seeking an engaging survival challenge.
