On paper it is what Tower Unite is — a sandbox world, melee combat and multiplayer gameplay — though the resemblance is mostly at that level. The common ground extends to exploration and discovery, and a first-person view. Where the two diverge is setting and progression: post-apocalyptic world and crafting mechanics.

Genre puts it alongside Tower Unite, and so does dark, oppressive atmosphere, a sandbox world and melee combat. The common ground extends to multiplayer gameplay and a first-person view. Where the two diverge is visuals and game mode: competitive edge and a sci-fi setting.
