What to consider

Summarized by AI

Don't Starve Together fans want a strange survival world to play as a team, with crafting and building all around. Raft, Grounded and Stranded Deep each give you a different place to be stranded, The Forest adds horror, and Valheim keeps the group survival going with a Norse backdrop.

1. Raft

Best for friends who want to share a scrappy survival base on the water.

155 votes

You wake on a tiny raft in an endless blue ocean, with no land in sight and only a plastic hook. Gather debris, expand the raft and sail toward dangerous islands, alone or with friends. It keeps the team crafting and resource scraping, though the story is much smaller and the map is water.

Standout features

  • Ocean survival
  • Expand your raft
  • Co-op or solo

2. Grounded

Best for co-op groups who want survival with a story and a miniature twist.

98 votes

The yard becomes the wilderness once you are shrunk to the size of an ant. You explore, build and survive together in a first-person adventure, with hordes of giant insects to deal with. Mysteries wait behind a story you play through, so there is more than just gathering, which matches Don't Starve Together's tone of quirky danger.

Standout features

  • Ant-sized backyard
  • Giant insect threats
  • Story-driven survival

3. Stranded Deep

Best for survivors who like crafting and exploring on and under the ocean.

52 votes

A plane crash leaves you in the Pacific with no way to call for help, and you hunt for supplies to craft tools, weapons and shelter. Underwater and land exploration are both open. It is a lonelier, quieter take on survival, though the multiplayer tag means friends can join the struggle.

Standout features

  • Pacific plane-crash start
  • Underwater and land exploring
  • Tools, weapons and shelter

4. The Forest

Best for crafters who want Don't Starve's dread in a darker first-person form.

209 votes

A survival horror game set in a forest where cannibalistic mutants live, after you survive a passenger jet crash. You build, explore and craft in first person, with every tree choppable and caves beneath the ground. Don't Starve Together's strange creatures turn into something far scarier here, and the mood loses its whimsy.

Standout features

  • Cannibal mutant society
  • Cave and lake exploration
  • First-person survival horror

5. Valheim

Best for bigger groups who want crafting, building and boss fights together.

284 votes

A collaborative survival game for 1-10 players, set in a procedurally generated Norse-inspired world. You craft weapons, build halls and slay mighty foes to impress Odin, moving through biomes with their own resources and dangers. Teamwork is built into everything, so it should suit a group already used to surviving together.

Standout features

  • Up to ten players
  • Distinct world biomes
  • Hall building
