Starve is a browser-based multiplayer survival game developed by LapaMauve, a duo of French coders. Launched in 2017, it drops players into a harsh, pixel-art wilderness where the goal is simple yet brutal: survive. You control a human-like avatar, scavenging resources, crafting tools, and battling hunger, cold, and hostile mobs to rack up points and climb the leaderboard.
You start with nothing but your wits. Use WASD or arrow keys to move and your mouse to interact, gather resources like wood and stone, and craft basic tools like axes or campfires. The HUD displays your status bars, inventory, and crafting menu. Key early tasks include:
Punching trees for wood and gathering berries for food.
Crafting a campfire to stay warm at night.
Building a workbench to unlock advanced items like weapons or armor.
Pro tip: Always carry enough wood and stone to craft a fire on the go—nighttime cold is a killer.
Starve.io’s world spans multiple biomes, each with unique resources and dangers:
Forest: Beginner-friendly with ample wood and berries.
Winter: Freezing temperatures demand fur clothing and constant fires.
Desert: Scorching heat requires water and shade.
Jungle: Dense with resources but crawling with predators like dragons.
Venturing into tougher biomes yields rare materials for high-tier gear, but beware of mobs and other players.
Starve is a raw, unforgiving survival adventure that hooks players with its blend of crafting, exploration, and combat. Whether you’re braving the jungle biome, crafting a legendary bow, or outlasting rivals in Zombie Mode, the game rewards cunning and persistence.
