Xsyon is a post-apocalyptic sandbox MMO from independent studio Notorious Games. Modern civilisation is gone, machines and books have all but vanished, and survivors fall back on old crafts. The world is loosely based on real geography and history.

Players make the content. They fell trees, hunt, gather, reshape the land by digging, levelling and raising terrain, and build settlements. You can keep a solo homestead or band together into groups, clans and tribes of twenty or more, and the world shifts with what people do.

It suits patient players who enjoy building and roleplay in a small community. The game has been in early access for years, the graphics are dated, and the developer has said updates are largely one person's work. It is a one-time purchase with no subscription, and there is no Russian.
