About
You have crash-landed on a lethal, radiation-soaked planet, and you are running out of time. A scorching sun that burns everything in its path is coming your way. Your only hope of survival is a massive mobile base too complex for one person to operate. You are forced to make a decision no human has ever faced: creating a crew of alternative versions of yourself.
But your solution may just become your biggest problem.
You crashed. You are entirely alone. The sun is a death sentence, and your mobile base must keep moving to outrun it. With no rescue coming, you must find a way to operate it, or you’ll die.
When the planet itself is your enemy, every second spent standing still brings you closer to ash.
To survive, you must move. To move, you need help. Forced to use the base’s advanced quantum technology and the planet’s unique resources, you must create The Alters: alternative versions of yourself. Brought to life by a supercomputer that turned your alternative life choices into reality, they are your only hope. They bring the specific expertise and capable hands you drastically lack, but they also bring their own human baggage.
A crew of ‘yourselves’ is a psychological nightmare. Every Alter arrives with distinct personalities, memories, and regrets. You aren't just managing resources. You are also a relationship manager to yourself, mediating conflicts and confronting your past choices lightyears from home.
As tensions rise, your Alters will clash over how to handle the mission. Keep them sane and keep them together, or your own egos will destroy your only chance of seeing Earth again.
Your rolling base is your lifeline, your factory, and your home. Customize and upgrade it to accommodate your growing crew. Research cutting-edge technologies, manage crucial life-support gear, and manufacture what you need to survive. Turn your base into a self-sustaining powerhouse capable of keeping both your crew fed and your systems humming.
You cannot hide inside the hull forever. To fuel your base and progress your research, you must step out onto the hostile planet's surface. Venture out into unpredictable anomalies and heavy radiation to mine essential resources.
But watch the clock, as every expedition is a high-stakes gamble against the oncoming burning sunrise.

Reviews
The Alters — 9/10 Recommended What starts as a survival and base-building game quickly turns into a deeply human story about regret, identity, and the choices that define us. Exceptional character writing, great atmosphere, and rock-solid performance. The Good Deep Narrative & Character Writing: Every Alter represents a different choice from the protagonist's past. They aren't generic clones or stat boosts; they have distinct personalities, baggage, and conflicting viewpoints. Managing their personal dynamics feels like mediating a fight between different sides of your own identity. Tightly Integrated Gameplay Loop: Exploration, survival, base-building, and character management feed directly into each other. The base management carries a Fallout Shelter vibe, but with significantly more depth and narrative weight. Atmosphere & Sound Design: Eerie ambient noise on the hostile surface contrasts perfectly with the mechanical grounding of the base. Outstanding voice work gives each Alter distinct vocal nuances. Pacing & Urgency: Constant environmental time pressure prevents the survival loop from feeling slow or repetitive without becoming overwhelming. Technical Performance: Runs smoothly and maintains stable frame rates even as the base grows complex and weather effects intensify. The Caveats Time Pressure: If you prefer slow-paced sandbox survival without deadlines, the game’s constant push forward might take some adjustment. Final Verdict The Alters succeeds because every mechanic serves the story. You aren't just surviving on an unknown planet—you're surviving with the consequences of your choices and learning that every alternative version of life comes with its own struggles. Absolutely worth your time.

Too few observations to say whether a discount moves this store's chart at all: across the last 30 days Steam · Top Sellers · Poland has just 18 day-to-day chart moves that followed a price cut, against 2,498 that did not. We are publishing the count instead of a direction — 20 is the fewest we will draw a conclusion from, and price collection outside the United States began on 6 August 2026.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

This format was new for me, and currently I have so many emotions after this game, the plot with different ways, ohhh, nice one, rly enjoy and wanna buy last variable ^^
Absolutely a nice game with awesome story
The Alters is a really solid game. It mixes base building, construction, resource gathering and survival stuff with one of the coolest stories I’ve played in a long time. The best part is how unpredictable the story gets — you seriously never know what’s coming next, and the whole playthrough can change a lot depending on which Alters you make. Every Alter has their own personality, backstory and issues, and the way they interact feels super unique.
Если у вас есть управленческий опыт — постарайтесь не играть сразу после рабочего дня. Потому что это буквально симулятор работы руководителя. Дедлайны. Альтеры-сотрудники: один руку отхуярит, другой захавает психоделик, третий впадёт в депрессию, а потом посрутся из-за чего-то на кухне (медиатором в этих конфликтах я решила не быть после одного раза). А тебе нужно всё это разруливать, поддерживать их в рабочем состоянии и ещё самому не выгореть. Причём и буквально, и фигурально. [spoiler]Табула Раса — тупо джун. [/spoiler] Механики несложные, экономику довольно быстро начинаешь понимать. Но, ♥♥♥♥, эти дедлайны постоянно не давали спокойно насладиться видами внеземных планет Отдельно понравился сеттинг. А ещё в какой-то момент перестаёшь воспринимать альтеров как просто клонов и начинаешь видеть в них разные версии одного человека. Самозванцы с нарциссической травмой наверняка увидят в этой игре что-то очень знакомое 🫡 [spoiler]В конце не раздумывая решила просто взорвать базу нахер.[/spoiler] Добротный менеджмент-сурвайвал 10 рапидиев из 10.
Çok iyi oyun. DLC de güzel grafikleri de oynanışı da güzel.
