A fantastic game for any base-building fans, The Riftbreaker’s tight combination of action-RPG and tower-defense elements produce an addictively fun experience well worth the inevitable hours you’ll lose to it.
"The Riftbreaker" is a base-building survival game where you play as Captain Ashley S. Nowak, an elite scientist/commando in a powerful Mecha-suit. Your mission on the distant planet of Galatea 37 is to build up a base capable of creating a two-way rift back to Earth, using various machines for resource extraction, construction, and combat against hostile inhabitants. This task requires the development of a complex chain of mines, refineries, powerplants, and research facilities.

Critic Reviews

The Riftbreaker is a genuine challenge throughout. The world is beautiful and the campaign is superb.
80%The Riftbreaker Review
The Riftbreaker is an addictive, complex, and satisfying RTS/bullet hell hybrid, even while it suffers from some very noticeable performance issues.
80%The Riftbreaker Review – An Ephemeral Paradise
The focus placed by The Riftbreaker's gameplay loop on resource management may be too monotonous for some players. It's a game that focuses on its base-building mechanics more than its Action RPG mechanics. Still, it's a decent mixture of both that can either be loved or hated by players.
