About

Rootborn is a quirky action-platformer—basically, a sandbox adventure.

  • It’s like the lovechild of Terraria and schizophrenia. Brother to Starbound and the dirt on your sneakers, inspired by squares.
  • Imagine mixing weird art style, a random story, four cans of booze, and a unhealthy obsession with stacking game blocks. That’s what you get.
  • Game that scares clowns, spiders, and heights (probably).
    (Okay, maybe not completely, but you get the idea.)
  • Game that took 17,000 years and 96 trillions of neurons to make this game.
  • Game that cost about the same as 3 slices of pizzas and a free water cup.
  • Game that is the reason its developer is now unemployed and lonely.
