Lost amidst the surreal and bizarre unknowns of the far reaches of the cosmos, your crew of explorers must pull together to discover the resources necessary to survive the long journey home.
Unsettled is a 2-4 player cooperative survival adventure set in the wondrous and unnerving fringes of uncharted space. There are no enemies and no combat, only an environment where every step, every breath, every particle around you could mean immediate, terrifying, death. Enemies are the least of your concerns.
In these incredible conditions you must complete a series of tasks necessary to your continued survival. Perhaps the water reclamation system on the ship needs repair, or (as usual) food supplies are running low. Before you lies a strange alien landscape - it’s up to you to complete these tasks using…whatever you find out there.
Each time you play you will have a different combination of survival tasks to complete and the things you discover (and their weird properties) will be different as well. So while you always start out knowing what problems you need to solve you have no idea how you’re going to use the world before you to do so (or what the world is going to do to you while you try).
As you explore the environment, encountering wild & unique opportunities along the way, you will work closely with the rest of your crew to achieve your goal of continued existence. The only thing you can be sure of is each other; lose that trust and you’ll lose all hope of survival.
—description from the designer
This core set comes with 2 planets, Planet 001-Wenora and Planet 002-Grakkis, which are not available individually.
Embrace your fungal hosts and discover mind-bending abilities beyond your imagination or be absorbed forever. Unsettled: Wenora is the 1st planet box for "Unsettled".
Wenora is a bizarre and wondrous fungal jungle teeming with alien vegetation and gargantuan spore-based lifeforms.
Growth in this place is of a scale beyond any we've encountered. Life drips and pulsates disturbingly, mysterious pastes and powders covering most of the planet's crawling surfaces. Simply traversing the land is deeply unnerving, yet awe inspiring all the same. Tentacles, toxic spores and an alarming array of suction cups abound.
Things you may find here:
Electromagnetic Polypores
Incandescent Slime
Floating Tentacle Knots
Screaming Glow Frogs
Telekinetic Microbe Clouds
Discover pathways to the skies to escape violent storms and enormous creatures that haunt the surface. Unsettled: Grakkis is the 2nd planet box for "Unsettled".
Grakkis is a sand-swept desert ruins. What was once a massive planet-wide forest of unfathomably large trees is now that forest's graveyard - all the trees having long since petrified to a stone-like state. Some have crumbled into interesting formations. Some had rotted before petrifying, creating strange caves and crevices, many of them thousands of feet above ground. Colossal alien lifeforms, disturbing in their appearance, wander the wasteland. They tower horrifyingly in the distance like gods in some waking existential nightmare.
Things you may find here:
Musical Stonewood Formation
Falling Stone-Fruit Bombs
Bioluminescent Paste
Blooming Geodes
Gaseous Sand Storms

Cautiously explore a crystalline crypt to commune with ancient beings and access long-forgotten secrets. Unsettled: Zehronn is the 3rd planet box for "Unsettled".
Zehronn is a cavernous labyrinth filled with ancient crystalline formations. Entombed throughout the crystals are the enormous bodies of a strange alien species.
Oddly, there is no sound on this planet, which is somehow absorbed by the crystals. They act as a source of light however, with some kind of spiritual essence being absorbed from the remains of great beings from another time.
Things you may find here:
Silent, Wailing Haze
Crystalline Passageways
Monolithic Presence
Bottomless Crevass
Uncanny Mechanical Traps

Delve into a labyrinthian coral construct, but tread lightly lest you anger the very ground you walk upon. Unsettled: Yendraal is the 4th planet box for "Unsettled".
Yendraal is a planet-sized mass of sentient coral floating through space. Running through its mass is a series of colorful life-filled tunnels that intersect and connect cavernous pockets, each flourishing with a different wondrous collection of creatures.
Be mindful in your pursuits however, as an ancient awareness floods every corner of this world. The resources you need are available and wondrous discoveries await, but claiming them will require a strange new type of diplomacy.
Things you may find here:
Coral Towers
Ethereal Constellation Chamber
Intelligent Mists
Resonant Eels
Effervescent Flame Pearls
Note: This expansion is a community-designed planet, created during the initial kickstarter launch.

Take refuge in clockwork stone shells, and endure the heat of floating lava rivers in this fiery wonderland of timed maneuvers and variable gravity. Unsettled: Strannos is the 5th planet box for "Unsettled".
This swirling jumble of floating stone, lava tubes and fire are held “together” by a weak gravity and atmospheric shell but never form a greater whole. An explorer standing on a horizon-stretching chunk of rock can observe thousands of similar stone continents floating overhead and across the horizon, rivers of lava floating among, around, and over them as if inside a planet-sized lava lamp. Up and down have no meaning in this constantly shifting world of hellish heat and stunning spectacle. To navigate this environment is to risk death.
