We broke it down in our previous updates, but if you missed it, we are attaching all the  highlights below:

Updates Inspired by You


We received many requests to add these features to the game, and now we couldn’t be happier that you can finally try it by yourselves! 

Relax Mode
We introduced a new difficulty option for those who prefer to enjoy the story and exploration without worrying too much about survival mechanics or inventory management.

New Save System
Saving just got simpler. You can now save automatically upon exiting the game, and during crucial story moments. Keep in mind that any saves from the open playtests in October will not transfer to the full game.


Introducing the Gamer’s Den

This new base module, designed by the Scientist, brings a little fun to your daily routine. Step inside the Gamer’s Den to play the new Card Game and lift the spirits of your Jans.

Card Game

Photo Mode

Capture the perfect shot with new photo tools. Play with lighting, angles, and composition to recreate your favorite scenes. And yes, Molly is always ready to strike a pose, Titanic recreations welcome.
