Riftborne Free Download

Riftborne is a terminal-based sci-fi grand strategy game about building an empire inside a living galaxy. Start with one base, expand into colonies and fleets, manipulate markets, send spies, raid rivals, and survive wars that unfold in real time over days or weeks.

Play solo, host your own server, or join official multiplayer galaxies with up to 120 commanders

The enemies adapt to your play style over time, and even across new game saves.

You begin with a single base. That grows into a network of colonies, fleets, supply lines, defenses, contracts, and political influence. Early progress is small and deliberate. Later, the game opens into logistics, faction conflict, economic pressure, territorial control, and rival powers that have had time to grow into serious threats.

A run can unfold over weeks or months as your empire develops.

Riftborne is aimed at players who enjoy learning a dense system, building momentum, and seeing small decisions matter much later.
