About
Soulmask is a massive survival crafting game set in multidimensional ancient civilization open worlds. Carve your path through two unique realms—[Cloud Mist Forest] or [Shifting Sands]. The choice is yours.
You are a survivor whose soul is tied to a mysterious mask. To survive this world, you must recruit the strongest barbarians, using the masks to possess and lead them toward a new era of civilization.
In the world of Soulmask, no two souls are alike. With over 871 unique Talents, Masteries, and Likes, your tribesmen offer infinite possibilities.
From bloodthirsty warriors and lethal hunters to legendary craftsmen and master harvesters—recruit them all. Transfer your consciousness through the mask to possess any tribesman, transforming them into your ultimate avatar.
The 1.0 update allows your barbarians to share their wisdom. Train your tribesmen and pass down skills to forge the ultimate, one-of-a-kind warrior.
Explore two ancient worlds spanning great distances, each with unique climates and ecosystems
Rainforests, deserts, snow-capped mountains, plateaus, and islands that you must adapt to... or perish. Each environment demands different strategies for survival.
Hunt for treasure in ancient ruins, battle mechanical enemies in labyrinths, or take on entire barbarian cities alone. This world is yours to challenge and explore.
Retrace the ascent of civilization: from humble thatch huts to impenetrable blackstone forts. Watch as your small settlement evolves into a majestic city.
From the first seeds of agriculture to the roar of machinery—experience the true evolution of civilization in Soulmask through farming, beekeeping, weaving, leatherworking, smelting, and more.
You do not walk this path alone. With a sophisticated command system, your tribesmen can automate every task. From gathering raw materials to managing logistics and assembly lines, you can design and transform your home into a fully automated industrial powerhouse.
In this world, the Mask is a symbol of the gods. Each Mask grants a unique combat style, while the Mimicry System lets you embody a deity to turn the tide of battle.
With 9 weapon classes, 88 weapon skills, and the infinite traits of your tribesmen, each battle is a thrilling test of skill to be experienced as you fight for survival.
Freedom is at the heart of Soulmask. Play solo at your own pace, team up with friends in co-op, run your own private server with custom rules, or step onto official servers where the stakes are real.
PvE if you want your civilization to grow undisturbed, PvP if you want to test it against rival chieftains. However you choose to play, over 200 customizable settings let you shape the rules, the rhythm, and the world itself.
In v1.0, we introduce three distinct playstyles: Tribe Mode for the builders and leaders; Survival Mode for the purists; and Warrior Mode for those who seek the thrill of brutal combat. Choose your style.
Supports Steam Workshop and everyone can now unleash their creativity with our powerful Soulmask Modkits to craft a Soulmask experience unlike any other.

Soulmask is currently best experienced with keyboard and mouse. We're actively working toward full controller and Steam Deck support, with a target of completing this in 2026. If you primarily play on a gamepad, we'd encourage you to wishlist the game and check back once that update lands.

Robust building system (lots of games use the same square & triangle tile grid system, not a lot do it well) it has a few quirks with placement, but you can cycle snapping points easily, and there are a few tricks to get things to work. The tile sets are pretty nice as well. And if you just like building in games like this, it comes with a built-in option to enter "Creative Mode" at will, in single player. Great for exploring build ideas, testing layouts for trap effectiveness, and in general just having fun with it. Crafting is pretty well done, with the tribesmen automation of it taking away a decent bit of the grind. Being able to set a custom amount of X item to be maintained is quite handy if you tend to be forgetful about crafting regular stock (like me lol) The combat is decent, but not omg wow amazing. It's basic enough in execution that it doesn't feel bad, but diverse enough that you can mix and match to your playstyle. Bringing the tribe along for a tough fight is great, just be sure to have everyone kitted and fitted before you take on a large group/boss, they CAN DIE (but not a big deal once you unlock the ability to "respawn" them) The visuals are quite nice as well. Not cartoony like some games (not a bad thing) but also not too hyper realistic or uncanny. The outfits and weapon cosmetics are pretty cool, and it seems like as the game grows we will get more (hopefully) Mod support is pretty nice as well, both Workshop and Nexus have a small collection, but again as the game grows, more will come (this is more likely guaranteed though) 8/10, saw AmbiguousAmphibian play this once and got it + the DLC (yes just to build a silly flying ship. totes worth it)
i think this is a sleeper, just waiting for people to find it. Finding and figuring all of it out is so much fun. Its not the same game as it was before 1.0. More fun with friends but if you use the advanced siders tons of fun solo. Do not sleep on training and maxing out your tribe members and then deep scan is a must. Having many 120s+ on my main char is so nice. 100s of hr.s of fun waiting for you.
Solid Game Heavy City Build that can fall by the wayside if too focused on the level grind.
很好玩的游戏,尤其是族人和自动流水线做起来很好玩,我之前很喜欢玩kenshi就是因为建设基地自动化生产很喜欢。但是也有些缺点,首先就是现在浮沙地图大而空,根本升不了60级明显是没做完。然后整个怪物和boss也就只有这些各种首领和机器人,而且和机器人战斗的时候打击感实在是太差了,我还是更喜欢刀刀到肉的感觉。还有最严重的一点就是族人ai问题太大了,家造的稍微大一点复杂一点族人就开始卡一个地方来回走路了。 希望能改进这些问题毛病,总体来说还是一款优秀的游戏,潜力也很大

By far the best survival builder game I have ever played.
Nice game, difficult mechanics
Injouable à la manette, je relancerai quand y'aura un support manette
This has been an amazing game so far well planned and designed with challanging gameplay that makes it enjoyable for a long time. As coming from a game like Ark I was concerned with the release of updates and how they would break the game and make it not playable. It has been very enjoyable to see this having updates that are smooth and actually fixing issues instead of creating more. Highly recomend this game for people that enjoy suvivor games but hate the grind that comes with it.
Pros: Fun combat, tribe/base management that's similar to palworld but a bit more complex with a lot of resources and materials to manage, many options for altering gameplay when you create a world. Cons: like 70% of the npc barbarians you recruit which you play as are really derpy/ugly looking (you can unlock tech that lets you save a good looking tribesman's looks and copy it to others at least*), Overall for me its a solid 7/10, will put in a lot more hours into it and I hope the devs keep up the good work
