Don't Starve Shipwrecked for iPhone

Live the castaway life in Don't Starve: Shipwrecked

Don't Starve: Shipwrecked is a mobile survival game in which you play a shipwreck survivor trying to survive on a desert island. You'll have to gather resources, craft items, explore new islands and try your hardest to fulfill the instructions in the game's title. It's not going to be easy.

Struggle, survive and stay sane

Don't Starve: Shipwrecked resembles other survival games, but with a simple touch interface and stylish cartoon graphics that recall the Gothic aesthetic of a Tim Burton or Lemony Snicket story. Like its predecessor, this game is punishingly difficult. Starving to death, being killed by enemies or going insane are all very real dangers. However, you'll learn something from each of your defeats, allowing you to come back next time and do better. The pressure makes this game as frustrating as it is fun. The game isn't without its flaws, however: for one thing, the screen can sometimes be so crowded that tapping on a particular item can be a little tricky. This is especially challenging because you sometimes need to select things quickly and efficiently. There are one or two other minor glitches. It's also a very large game and can have very slow load times.
