Hidden Path Entertainment has launched their ”social sandbox creation” game Windborne on Steam Early Access, which is inspired by the likes of Animal Crossing, Minecraft, Dwarf Fortress, and the early Zeldas.
We get an ”infinite number of islands,” full of surprises to explore alone or with friends. We can build virtually anything, take up quests and craft with almost 200 different blocks.
It’s a very vibrant world in Windborne and we’re free to explore every bit as we make our way in the world, from taking a Minecraft approach to going all Zelda with quests.
Check out the Windborne Steam Early Access for more.
