Left Stranded
SteamLeft Stranded is a top-down multiplayer factory automation game set in a grounded medieval world. The King has chosen you — a master blacksmith — to tame the wilderness and bring progress to an abandoned land. Your tools are primitive. Your power is limited. But with enough iron and ingenuity, you can build a kingdom of machines.
Start with an axe and a forge. Mine ore, craft tools, and construct machinery powered by waterwheels and oxen. As you fulfill royal contracts, the King will reward you with better technology — steam engines, electric dynamos, and massive production chains.

Build machines powered by treadmills, gear shafts, coal burners, and waterwheels. Start with simple hand-crafted tools and slowly progress to complex factories using conveyor belts, pipes and steam.
Lay down infrastructure, defend your territory with traps and turrets, and turn wilderness into a heavily fortified estate.
Harvest resources like iron, coal, wood to fuel your machines and defend your land, in a procedurally generated world with dynamic day-night cycles and seasonal changes.
Left Stranded has been designed with multiplayer in mind from the get-go. Play solo or online with others. Collaborate on massive factories — or fight for control of scarce resources and delivery contracts. You can invite your friends to play together, or if multiplayer is not for you, you can play single player too.
