Varför Early Access?

“To create a richer open world based on Chinese folklore and a more exploratory game mode, we believe it is crucial to adjust and update the game based on actual player feedback.
"AsHes" is a Survivalcraft game themed around Chinese folklore, focusing on survival exploration and crafting as its core gameplay. It integrates a carefully designed main storyline into this open world. This innovative game mode aims to provide players with a unique experience different from previous open-world survival games. To gather more extensive player feedback and make this exploratory experience more interesting, player assistance is indispensable. Therefore, we decided to release the game in an Early Access format and sincerely look forward to players' feedback.”
