📌What is SAND?
SAND: Raiders of Sophie is a unique first-person shooter where players build and operate giant walkers across the post-apocalyptic dunes of a fallen planet. Battle rival players, explore, loot and extract valuable resources in a hostile, procedurally generated world.
In order to effectively traverse this harsh and dangerous planet, you will design and deploy Tramplers, gigantic walking bases that will shield you from the elements, defend you and your loot against other players and destroy anything that obstructs your pursuit of becoming the most notorious pirate upon the dunes!
Build, Customize and Command gigantic mechanical walkers
Tramplers, your most loyal companion, act as a mode of transport, a main base, primary storage, protection from the elements and most formidable weapon for its captain and their crew.
You can build your trampler from the ground up, customizing the size, layout and placements of its engine, compartments, storage and mortal weapons.
An industrial alternate history of 1910
In their desperation, Galicians, citizens of a region within the Austro-Hungarian Empire are returning to the desolate remains of the once-resource-rich world of Sophie, in order to uncover hidden riches in the barren wastelands, rectify historical injustices and claim what they believe is rightfully theirs.
Thrilling first-person PvPvE combat
Team up with a group of friends or enter the world solo and go head to head with other players and the undead former inhabitants of this once prosperous planet with a variety of weapons in frantic first person combat, or weaponize and fortify your trampler and engage in massive scale combat upon the dunes of Sophie.
Explore a fallen civilization, loot and extract
The cities left in ruin upon Sophie hold untold riches, but danger lurks around every corner. Sail the world, scour the abandoned streets, monuments and wrecks, recover valuable loot, weapons and resources and fight off rival pirates before extracting with your spoils.
