Crashlands is an action-adventure role-playing video game developed and published by Butterscotch Shenanigans. It was released onto the App Store, Google Play, and after being on Steam Greenlight for 42 hours, Steam in January 2016.[2] Shortly after release, software pirates had uploaded the game to Amazon without permission.[3] The game is described as being a "story-driven crafting game"[4] and tasks players to collect items in order to craft items such as weapons and armour.[1] Crashlands has been compared to Don't Starve.[4]

Reception

The mobile and PC versions of the game hold aggregrated scores of 95 and 79 on Metacritic, respectively.[5] PC Gamer awarded it 73%, saying "Fun combat, great writing, and a great look, but with pacing and progression tuned for a mobile experience, not the PC."[6]
