Ark: Survival Evolved

2017 68 / 100 Adventure Indie Role-playing (RPG)

Ark: Survival Evolved is an open-world action-adventure survival game where players awaken stranded on a mysterious island populated by dinosaurs, prehistoric creatures, and mythical beasts. Gameplay revolves around gathering resources, crafting tools and structures, and taming creatures that can be ridden or used for combat and transportation. The game supports both single-player and multiplayer modes, with multiplayer servers allowing players to form tribes and compete or cooperate. Several expansion packs add new maps and storylines, and the game spawned an animated series, a remaster in Unreal Engine 5 titled Ark: Survival Ascended, and a planned sequel.

Everything about Ark: Survival Evolved: story and gameplay

A structured look at the narrative, game feel, and traits that define this game.

Story & context

Players awaken on a mysterious island called the Ark with no memory of how they arrived. Surrounded by dinosaurs and other prehistoric creatures, they must survive while uncovering the island's secrets through scattered explorer notes left by previous inhabitants. As survivors progress through increasingly difficult boss encounters, they begin to piece together the truth about the Ark and the technology sustaining it. The deeper story, revealed through expansion packs, follows survivors as they travel from the island to an underground alien world, a corrupted future Earth, and eventually aboard a massive colony ship traveling through deep space in search of a new home for humanity.
