Forager is an open-world survival game created by Hopfrog, and published directly by Humble Bundle, wherein you gather resources, create buildings to refine said resources, and expand your domain by buying new islands.
This game contains examples of:
- Alchemy Is Magic: You can create a lot of useful potions if you build a Cauldron, and eventually you can use it to transmute steel into gems.
- An Economy Is You: Up until you unlock the ability to produce drones, you're pretty much single-handedly responsible for gathering resources.
- Cap: Your level caps out at 65, after you've learned all of the skills.
- Darkness Equals Death: In hard mode, skeletons show up at nighttime. They're not terribly dangerous, but they can smash all your stuff if you're not careful.
- Diminishing Returns for Balance: Crafting the same building multiple times costs more materials each time.
- In Harmony with Nature: The druids, naturally.
- Money for Nothing: Averted. Even after you buy every island, you can still use coins to buy items from market stalls or traveling traders.
- Shout-Out: Two possible droid designs resemble Sylveon and Snorlax.
- An NPC will quote the Old Men from the first The Legend of Zelda game.
- Sprint Meter: Performing certain actions will drain your stamina bar.
