Cube Life: Island Survival

A classic survival adventure — now on Steam for Windows!

Originally created to run on Nintendo Wii U console, Cube Life: Island Survival became one of the first Minecraft-style sandbox survival experiences available on Nintendo’s system.

The game was first released on Nintendo Wii U in June 2015 — months before the official release of Minecraft on Wii U in December 2015.

It quickly made history by reaching the top of the Nintendo eShop charts:

• 🥇 #1 in Europe

• 🥈 #2 in America

• 🥉 #3 in Japan

Within just one month of release, in July 2015, the game earned its own English Wikipedia page, highlighting its impact and recognition in the indie survival genre.

Now rebuilt for PC with expanded shader technology, Cube Life: Island Survival brings its classic sandbox experience to modern Windows systems. Enjoy improved visuals and the original charm that made the game a Nintendo success.

Survive, explore, craft, and build your own adventure — the island is waiting.

EXPLORE:

Explore living world with wild animals on the land, lurking in caves or swimming under the water.

CRAFT:

Gathering resources is a key element to survival. It allows you to craft weapons like swords, axes, and long bows for hunting and fighting.

FIGHT:

Some islands are occupied by local inhabitants and you can choose to befriend them, or if you prefer, be a bad guy and steal their items, animals, and fight them—the choice is yours. During the night, it’s a good idea to hide, because Cannibals will appear and come after you!
