Survival mode provided Scrap Mechanic record popularity – review

In the fresh store sales chart Steam in second place was the game of the Swedish studio Axolot gamesknown for Raft. And far from new: cooperative building simulator Scrap mechanic went into early access in January 2016.
The game from the very beginning received positive reviews and at the same time there were 2-4 thousand players in it. However, over the past weekend their number exceeded 46 thousand – this is 1000% more than the previous average value.
The record popularity of Scrap Mechanic was provided by two factors. One of them is a 30% discount, which will be valid for a few more hours. Thanks to her, the game can be bought for 293 rubles.

In addition, the other day there was a large-scale update Scrap Mechanic, which added Survival mode to the game. He sends players on a dangerous mission to a fully automated farming planet, where farm bots are furious and, instead of growing crops, rush at people.

The ship of our mechanics crashes, so friends have to use all their ingenuity and imagination to survive. In order to stay alive and get ready to fight off the attacks of the farm bots, you will have to creatively use everything that is within the range of access.

The creators of Scrap Mechanic plan to further develop the survival mode, adding new content and features. So they do not plan to release the game from early access: they really want to add, fix or configure a lot.
