Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Charts
Each storefront's own chart, in its own country — the closest public signal to sales where none is published. A country missing from a list is one we don't collect there, not one where the game doesn't chart.
No United States chart position — it charts only in the markets below.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 4.43/day in the week to Aug 24 → 10.14/day in the week after.
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.
About
Your task is to construct a two-way rift back to Earth. It is a very complex invention and requires enormous amounts of energy. Simple solar collectors and a few tons of steel will not be enough. You will need to build up a complex chain of mines, refineries, powerplants and research facilities to complete this mission.
Your presence on this planet will not go unnoticed. As you build up your industry and disrupt the natural order, the world will start seeing you as a threat. Build up your defenses. Construct walls, barriers and defense towers as the attacks get stronger with every passing day. You will face thousands of hostile creatures trying to eliminate your presence.
Galatea 37 is an unknown planet in the Sycorax belt of the Milky Way galaxy. Long distance surveys detected that it is inhabitable and perfect for colonization. The planet is full of rare minerals and substances that can be found in various locations around the globe. Varied biomes can surprise you with unknown fauna and flora as well as harsh weather conditions. Construct local outposts in resource-rich locations that will transport the required resources using rift technology.
You play the role of captain Ashley S. Nowak - you are the Riftbreaker, an elite scientist/commando inside a powerful Mecha-Suit. Enter a one-way portal to Galatea 37, a distant planet at the far reaches of the Milky Way Galaxy, with the purpose of building up a base that will allow travel back to Earth and further colonization. Ashley's Mecha-suit, which she calls "Mr. Riggs", can withstand the harshest environmental conditions and has a full range of equipment for base construction, resource extraction, gathering specimens and of course - combat. It is capable of traveling through rifts that connect space across vast distances.
Take on an epic journey across all the different biomes of Galatea 37. You will establish multiple persistent bases across the globe that will fuel your economy. Research alien substances and lifeforms, as well as fight hordes of alien creatures, clearly not happy with your interference in the natural order of the planet. The campaign spans multiple hours and offers a remarkable degree of freedom in a super detailed, procedurally generated world. You can decide on the order of your priorities and what technologies you want to use. You’re the only human there, after all.
Your mission is to survive a set amount of time, fighting off increasingly difficult waves of enemy creatures. Each mission in the game is randomized, offering nearly endless replayability.
The Riftbreaker can be played solo or together in a group of up to 4 friends in Online Co-Op. Every game mode and each mission was specifically balanced to be enjoyed in single or multiplayer mode. The game includes a built-in server browser and a dedicated server mode. It can be played online or through a local LAN connection, entirely offline.
If intense fight for survival is not your thing either, then try out the Sandbox mode, where we give you control over the entire game – including resources, enemy spawns, and weather conditions.
The Riftbreaker’s gameplay can be customized to fit your playstyle. You can change the frequency of enemy attacks as well as their strength and numbers, resource abundance, weather events, enemy damage, and tons of other settings. There are also multiple difficulty presets to suit the needs of both hardcore strategy players as well as those that want a laid-back base-building experience.
The Riftbreaker’s development is continuously fueled by its welcoming community. The game has received years of support after its original release and is continuously expanded thanks to community suggestions and direct contributions. The game has a very open content structure and comes with a built-in set of modding tools, dedicated Steam Workshop integration, and a Mod Manager.

Игра отличный выживач чтобы с удовольствием провести время
Впервые играю в такой необычный Tower Defense, где тебе нужно не только отстраивать базу с пушкам, но и самому принимать активное участие в обороне. Перед покупкой игры сначала ознакомился с демо-версией. Прошел пролог и понял, что игра меня зацепила. Чем? 1. Строительство. Оно довольно простое и удобное. Зажимаешь ЛКМ и тянешь. Забор быстро ставиться по лини, а хабы проводов на нужном расстоянии друг от друга. Единственное со временем, когда у вас будет открыто много построек, глаза в интерфейсе будут разбегаться от их количества, но к этому привыкаешь, а возможность настройки клавиш под конкретные здания очень упрощает поиск популярных строений; 2. Динамичные бои и огромный выбор арсенала. Там есть и мечи, кувалды, автоматы, лазеры, огнеметы и т.д. Всё для сражений. Главное правильно выбрать во время исследований то, что вы хотите получить в первую очередь, так как на изучение тоже требуются ресурсы и время; 3. Открытый мир. Вы можете застроить абсолютно всю карту, забрать все ресурсы, а затем отправиться на другую точку планеты и сделать там то же самое; Помимо плюсов хотелось бы отметить и минусы, которые могут оттолкнуть от игры: 1. Простая сюжетная компания. Цель - исследовать планету, добыть ресурсов и построить портал, пока вас атакуют местные существа. Игра держится на диалоге двух персонажей, за которых мы играем, поэтому обязательно рекомендую поставить озвучку, чтобы не прерываться на чтение и всегда быть в курсе происходящих событий; 2. Однообразный геймплей. Да, в определенный момент, когда вы разберётесь в игре, а явных и понятных заданий не останется, вам может стать скучно. В это время обычно выручает то, что вы можете отправиться исследовать новые регионы, отстроить свою базу или изучить что-то новое. Советую играть с друзьями, так гораздо интереснее и проще. Можно друг другу помочь в критической ситуации. Для стабильного сетевого соединения рекомендуется использовать Radmin VPN или его аналог.

Nothing to get hooked on. A mashup of underdeveloped mechanics. Girlboss dialog.
A Great Co-op Base Builder
I like to think of it as factorio but less on the automation and more on the combat. Game runs just well enough although I shouldn`t be host just because it makes 90 minute matches 3 hours. Fun game enjoy coop especially survival mode although at first you only have enough stuff for one guy to be building stuff.
Nothing to get hooked on. Mashup of mechanics.
good stuff, story aint the best but the game is addictive as hell
One of the best "Build Up" games I have ever played! Ich habe jetzt öfter gelesen, dass man schnell überfordert wird und eigentlich einen Guide braucht. Dazu sage ich, dass ich zu keiner Zeit ein Tutorial oder Guide benutzt habe. Ich habe klar nicht auf dem schwersten Schwierigkeitsgrad gespielt fande aber im Endgame das spiel echt nicht schwer. Ich habe meine Kombo aus Säure/Feuer, Minigun und Raketenwerfer gefunden und noch weitreichende Verteidigungsanlagen benutzt, um Gegner in der Backline zu bekämpfen. Das habe ich jedoch mit rumprobieren und stärken/schwächen der Gegner verstehen herausgefunden. Also beim ganz normalen Spiel spielen. Wer sich nicht auskennt mit dem game sollt vielleicht auch nicht sofort mit der größten Schwierigkeitsgrad spielen. Ich finde das spiel ist schon relativ knackig, aber ich bin bis auf das erste Aktivieren des kleinen RIftportals nie in großartige not gelang. Ressourcen Anforderungen werden im Mid game finde ich am anspruchsvollsten, da man noch nicht wirklich die krassen Technologien hat, aber im Late game läuft vieles auf Masse und autonome Außenposten, welche dann Rohstoffe für die Hauptbasis liefern, hinaus. Es gibt immer etwas zu bauen, verbessern und optimieren, dadurch verliert das spiel nie an Fahrt und es gibt ständig was zu bauen oder zu erkunden. Overall muss ich sagen, dass Spiel hat mich sehr gefesselt und echt spaß gemacht. Ich habe auf einer Mittleren Schwierigkeit gespielt, welches mich nie vor unmöglichen Herausforderungen gestellt hat und das endfight war tatsächlich nur von meinen kleinen Verteidigungsstellungen aufgehalten worden und meine Hauptverteidigung wurde nicht mal angekratzt. (Kp wie es bei höheren Schwierigkeitsgraden wäre) Die Unterhaltungen der beiden Protagonisten fand ich immer sehr unterhaltsam und die Dynamic zwischen Mensch und Maschine fand ich auch sehr passend. I've read quite a few times now that people easily get overwhelmed and actually need a guide. To that, I can say I never used a tutorial or guide at any point. Sure, I didn't play on the highest difficulty, but I honestly didn't find the game hard at all in the endgame. I found my combo of acid/fire, minigun, and rocket launcher, and used long-range defenses to take out enemies in the backline. However, I figured all that out just by experimenting and understanding the strengths and weaknesses of the enemies—basically, just by playing the game normally. If you aren't familiar with the game, you probably shouldn't start on the highest difficulty right away either. I think the game is quite challenging, but apart from the first time activating the small rift portal, I never found myself in any major trouble. In my opinion, the resource requirements are the most demanding in the mid-game because you don't really have the overpowered tech yet. But in the late-game, it mostly comes down to sheer volume and autonomous outposts supplying raw materials to the main base. There is always something to build, upgrade, and optimize, so the game never loses its momentum and there's constantly something to construct or explore. Overall, I have to say the game really hooked me and was a lot of fun. I played on a medium difficulty, which never threw any impossible challenges at me, and the final battle was actually completely held off just by my minor defensive positions—my main defenses weren't even scratched. (Idk what it would be like on higher difficulties.) I always found the conversations between the two protagonists very entertaining, and the dynamic between human and machine felt really fitting too.
Cant wait to see whats next for this developer and engine! Also the game is pretty good, very enjoyable with a friend. Once you get a hang of how the game works you can play without very much thinking. I would love more meaningful choices on how to tackle certain maps, and characters with personalities, but this is nitpicking. The game reminds me of 'B' games of the mid 2000s in aesthetics and writing, which isnt a bad thing, but this title is getting carried very hard by the gameplay loop, which is excellent although Not quite living up to its highest potential.
