18. Rust

Rust is a multiplayer open-world survival game.  Overcome struggles such as hunger, thirst and cold. Build a fire, get some shelter. Hunt animals for meat. Team up with other players, or fight them. Do whatever it takes to survive.

In Rust, each player starts with a list of basic items that can be crafted. If you want to craft something more advanced such as a 9mm Pistol then you will have to study a Blueprint or use a Research Kit on the item to reverse-engineer and learn it. After you have learned the item it will permanently remain on your list of craftable items and will stay even if you die. The list of items you have learned, however, won’t carry on to a different server. It is only permanent in the server you learned it in.

Hunt to survive.

Some items also require having a workbench to craft.  You can craft a variety of items, such as a hunting bow, a large medkit, a handmade lockpick, a large spike wall, a revolver and much more using raw materials such as wood, cloth, leather, gunpowder and more.

Build a base and defend it with your friends.

Rust is currently in Early Access on Steam.
