20 BEST Survival Games of All Time (2024 Edition)

[@v1n3ss]

I dont fully understand why there is not more coming out of Green Hell. I found the Survival Mechanics so fulfilling in this game. Here and there a little tweeking of the mechanics, a new (and bigger) map and a new story on it and I would buy it again

[@GianfrancoIonata]

Norway, the northern lights... The emotion that The Long Dark gives me is unparalleled. It's a game made with love and everything works: the atmosphere, the (real) survival, ambient, the sound... An experience unparalleled to date. Another highly appreciated category is V Rising as such a beautiful gothic has never been seen.

[@drabent99]

7 days to die and ark all I need.

[@alienking_hd9386]

Tbh i like green hell more than the forest cause it feels more like a challenge and its kinda more realistic. And with the updates it got its a rlly fun game to play with friends

[@alegotronnortogela7695]

For me, the best in really any order will always be Green Hell, Subnautica, and Project Zomboid. I do love the Forest almost equally as much, but find the survival mechanics take a huge backseat to the combat and exploration. I was hoping Sons of the Forest would be more survival focused, but felt even easier to survive in than The Forest. Green Hell basically takes everything I love about Stranded Deep, and drops it into a jungle setting. Green Hell is the best pure survival game, nearly perfect. It's hard and grindy, as survival should be. Project Zomboid is THE best zombie game out there, nothing comes close to its realism and moddability. And Subnautica is the scariest survival game, scarier than the forest in my opinion because of the giant leviathans and dark, deep environments. The graphics are amazing and the art design is awe inspiring, giving me plenty of dreams of magical underwater experiences. I wish I could go back to some of those dreams.

Grounded should be top 5...

[@berrylongname]

Valheim is worth a try its very atmospheric and great base builder type you can play it many ways.

[@54321jr]

i have to like and comment and whatever else helps because you are the only one that explains rust perfectly. thank you sir

[@pharmcat8484]

Project Zomboid always makes me think of the board game Zombicide. I really need to play that again.

Great video green hell looks fun, I love palworld, terraria and minecraft. Dont starve was fun but i never got far! Ark was okay until someone came and destroyed my base and killed me and the family of bears I'd been breeding multiple times! Great video 😊

[@CulturedVultures]

glad you enjoyed it :D and yeah uhhhh sounds about right for Ark lmao

[@Nyctonaut]

32k GANG! Darkwood was my absolute FAVORITE. Im a huge horror fan, and Darkwood had a dark, oppressive, and forboding atmosphere! Anyways, love your videos.

[@Kurokishi-di8rv]

Should have mentioned Frostpunk. Solid survival game.

[@pharmcat8484]

I’m just going to say it. The Sims should have made the list.

Decent list, though "stranded deep" should have made the list.

[@n1ak]

I played all survival games, all these are good. But noone never mention night of the dead. An amazing survival game.

[@stashmerkin9576]

I actually saw that 2001 reference go past some people.

[@TheRandyGr]

32k gang. I would have placed Valheim in much higher. I also would have included 7 Days to Die.

[@Antonskii]

I just posted my first Valheim video ever, if you could let me know what you think about it I would highly appreciate it, any feedback is welcome! Thank you!

[@centralfinitecurve-ling...]

Dude you gotta check out Vintage Story

[@xchxstoneward6477]

1. Subnautica 2. Raft

[@Viper23859]

Darkwood is a masterpiece

[@Andi0391]

have you tried icarus? soulmask? fountain of youth? conan exiles? don't starve and terraria don't look like survival at all

[@WealthAlwaysWins]

Don't starve is one of the best. Try it man

[@arvinandrade8290]

You have 7 days to die in the video but you didn't include it on top 20.. it should be top 1 7D2D

[@AnimeBrosAMV]

Frost punk for me!

[@strategieswithsasquatch]

With respect, you should not put The Long Dark as your thumbnail if it isn't number one.

[@mjdf122]

It’s time to Survive

[@punisher4499]

the best survival game of all time is Kenshi

[@goofyrulez7914]

Was that old Apple ][ game, Wizardy, be considered a survival game? After all, when you died, you were dead and had to start all over.

[@-8h-]

Palworld is so unlike pokemon that its not even funny. A small handful of designs and throwing balls to catch them, and then the similarities end there.

[@zorro161]

32k gang !!!!!! 😂😂

[@Antagonist115]

I really have tried to get into the first and sons of the forest, but fuck me, it’s praised for its building and I don’t get why, it’s exhaustingly boring and takes forever, what the fuuuck bruh, god damn it takes forever to build a cubicle

[@minjinjogammers]

Whats your opinion on Palworld

[@pharmcat8484]

It won’t be a stylish marriage I can’t afford a carriage But you’ll look sweet Upon the seat Of a bicycle built for 2
