About
Welcome to SAND: Raiders of Sophie. Pilot your custom built war machines across the dunes of a fallen planet, battle rival players, scavenge for loot, weapons, ammo and resources, survive and extract with your spoils in a massive procedurally generated world.
Out here on Sophie, a raider is only as strong as their Trampler. Fully customizable, gigantic walking mechs that shield you from the elements, defend you and your loot from rival scavengers and rain destruction on anything that obstructs your pursuit of becoming the most notorious raider upon the dunes!
Design a modular trampler where your creativity and will to succeed is your only limit.
Build an impenetrable fortress that can weather the deadliest of assaults, a walking war machine stacked with mounted turrets and firepower, something small and stealthy to get you out of trouble as quickly as you get into it or a chaotic jumble of modules to confuse and disorient your enemies.
No matter your playstyle, you can design a trampler to support it.
Get your crew together, or go solo as you embark on expeditions. Deploy into the world, chart your course, and scavenge cities, ruins, shipwrecks and other remnants of a fallen world for loot. Survive encounters with the mysterious supernatural Upiors, fight or talk your way out of confrontations with other players, locate your extract point and escape to the safety of the orbital station with your loot, life and Trampler intact.
Smoke on the horizon, the groans of the undead echoing through the cities, and the distant rumble of sand all signal danger. Every city looted, shipwreck scoured or ill-timed encounter with other scavengers might just be your last, so keep your wits about you.
There are no friends on Sophie, the only ones you can trust are you and yours.
Design your Tramplers from scratch in the Trampler Editor before deploying into the world. Test your builds and scavenge lower-tier items at your own pace in Voyage Mode, or raise the stakes in Storm Dive for higher-tier loot and greater rewards, where as sandstorms slowly engulf the region, the risk of confrontations with other scavengers and the loss of your hard earned loot increases.

Cheaters galore. Teleporting into closed and armored captains cabins, noclipping through walls dropping tnt on reactors, teleporting at mach speed and punching you to death, firing full auto 80s, flyhacking their entire trampler, teleporting into the dreadnaught or to wok bomb then teleport into your trampler with it and fly off. This game is good as dead if this isn't fixed soon. Anyone familiar with The Cycle Frontier they are going the exact same route they did.
The only reason this game is mixed is because it got review bombed like hell. It had a tough making with constant power outages, location moving, and other goverment intervention. The servers were melted from DDoS attacks on launch (we all know who took part in that), making the game unplayable. None of this was their fault and they have pushed through giving quite the fun game. Apart from getting destroyed 2 seconds before extract, i haven't had a moment were im not having fun. Very much a Sea of Thieves inspired game with a bit of Rust or Tarkov in there. The game is early accsess so it's buggy and theres constant server issues but all the fun i have is out weighy alll the issues, which is what you want from a early access game.
It's early access, so it is a bit rough arround the edges. The Trampler Vs Trampler is peak, however not as big of a fan once one starts boarding the other, and it becomes a "who can get lucky with the shotgun" first. Skill issue I guess, and comming from Hunt Showdown makes me a bit spoiled. But at the end of the day, trampler V trampler fights makes you forget the rough "hand gun" aspect of the game.
The game do have some issues, but you don't encounter them all the time. Those times that there is 0 problems are already worth it and the game has so much potential that I believe it can only be better with time.
So far I have not got to play the game. every time I spawn in some one destroys me and robs me. so I really wish i didn't buy this game and will be letting every one that asks about this game if they want to be overly stressed and cuss a lot this game is for you. I was told you could not take peoples ships but the las guy that killed me was fixing up mine.
Nothing wrong with the game or gameplay itself, the game is incredibly fun you can easily lose track playing it. The problem is the amount of cheaters in every damn lobby.
Probably the worst game i have played. Have given it at least a week of play, its ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. The hit detection is trash, the ship mechanics are clunky, you get stuck over tiny rocks almost every second, and for some reason it doesn't matter what you do to the enemies reactor they still just knock yours out in 1 shot. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
The biggest problem right now is that 0 skillbased matchmaking exists and cheaters run all over you. Me and my friends played 3 games with our best tramplers and loot and got insta-headshot sniped through walls and in our ship. All of our loot is gone and we wont get it back. The anti-cheat sucks ass and there is few support for players that die to cheaters. If this game had a better anti-cheat and skill-based matchmaking it would be one of the most fun games ever!
Why do I have to use default controls!!! i cannot customize them the way i want!!!!!
Good Game ♥♥♥♥ Server good job
