Aethus

Explore a vast underground world to mine, refine and craft hundreds of items, then build up your modular surface Outpost to farm hydroponic crops, prospect for gems and automate your resource-gathering in this sci-fi survival-crafter where the story always provides a reason to dig deeper.

You are Maeve, ex-mining engineer for the Astral Resource Corporation - ARC - a galactic megacorp that profits by draining entire planets of their resources. As you take on your own mining claim, you'll explore the remnants of a doomed science expedition and the abandoned facilities they've left behind as Maeve strives to build a stable life of her own, outside of ARC’s control. Armed with nothing but her basic mining equipment, tales from her beloved grandad, and her loyal AI drone companion, can you unravel the mystery of an incredibly powerful new element and uncover the dark secrets that the corpos would rather keep buried?
