My Time at Sandrock Now Available in Early Access

Pathea Games’ follow-up to My Time at Portia, titled My Time at Sandrock, has been the talk of a lot of indie fans. With My Time at Portia being so well received, it isn’t much of a surprise that people are excited. Now, My Time at Sandrock is available in Early Access on Steam and the Epic Games Store.

Here is what the press release has to say about the new entry in the My Time franchise. “Times are tough in Sandrock, a once glorious city-state now struggling for survival against the harsh economic and environmental realities of its desert-bound location. Board a train to Sandrock and step into the role of the town’s newest Builder, capable crafters with a knack for producing all types of public projects, and get to work kickstarting Sandrock’s return to form.

Revitalize Sandrock and its surroundings by taking on work orders to create labor-saving machinery like elevator shafts, build communal buildings and attractions, and help neighbors with various tasks. Learn how to harvest delicious crops by transforming the blistering desert into a culinary hub. Befriend the citizens of Sandrock by engaging in leisurely conversations, tackling relationship-boosting sidequests, and improving community and friendship-related skills. Take a break from rebuilding Sandrock to craft furniture, decorate your workshop, and turn the Builder’s new house into a customized and stylish home.

Engage in myriad activities to reassemble Sandrock, one day at a time. Dive into deep mines to uncover crafting materials and long-forgotten remnants of old-world technology. Learn designs from the blueprints and uncover the hidden secrets of complex structures, including recycling machines and water reservoirs crucial to desert survival. Wade through the ruins with caution, as hostile inhabitants await around every corner! Fight back with an overhauled action-RPG combat system featuring melee and third-person shooting mechanics, as well as an arsenal of weapons to master.

Take on a variety of skill-building tasks tailored to different playstyles. Choose to complete jobs and tackle hundreds of sidequests to earn higher Builder ranks and advanced commissions, or stroll through the town to get to know locals, and maybe even discover a love interest. Chat with around 40 new NPCs, all waiting to share their story and spend time with Sandrock’s newest Builder. Impart wisdom to one another, exchange gifts, snap selfies, and build a bond over time to unlock various perks. Gather together for seasonal festivals, nighttime strolls, fun competitions, and more to create a true community in Sandrock.”

The brand manager for Sandrock, known as Yang, commented on the Early Access release, stating: “My Time at Sandrock brings lots of new features to the My Time series. The customizable playability of My Time at Sandrock allows for players to enjoy different aspects of the game depending on their interests and gaming style.”
