Sable

Open world

Valley

Sci-fi setting

A first-person adventure where you run and leap through a scenic valley in a powered exoskeleton. Using its power to grant and drain life, you explore nature and uncover a mystery.

Universe Sandbox

Sandbox with your own goals

A space sandbox where you create, alter and destroy planets, stars and entire galaxies with realistic gravity, collisions and climate simulation. It is about free experimentation and wonder rather than goals or story.

Project Spark

Sandbox with your own goals

In Project Spark you sculpt and paint your own open world with intuitive tools, then build stories and small games inside it and share them with others. Its appeal lies in creation: you are both the maker and the player.

The Touryst
