Rust & Rebellion 2025

Rust & Rebellion is a 2-8 player competitive survival game set in a post-apocalyptic steampunk world. Lead your band of survivors through a devastated landscape as you scavenge for resources, fend off threats, and face grueling dilemmas that will shape your journey.

Each playthrough introduces a new, unpredictable apocalypse—from alien invasions and rampaging kaiju to swarms of mechanized insects and demonic incursions.

Players must manage resources and prepare for each round's crisis by arranging your survivors into 1 of 4 skill piles: Farming, Engineering, Scavenging, or Defense. The game uses betrayal dice which makes every roll unpredictable and very difficult.

Each apocalypse will dictate what conditions each player must meet in order to survive. Most apocalypses allow for multiple winners, but win rate is less than 50% of players in each party, usually leading to only 1 or 2 winners each game.
