About This Package
Thorns is a brutal, loot and shoot, tame and scoot survival sandbox game. Inspired by games like rust, ark, 7 days to die, and other apocalyptic survival. Thorns takes you into a world consumed by the bloom, an alien parasite which infests and mimics its host. It is beautiful, but strange and dangerous. In a world where everything is trying to kill you, will you band together or let the parasite turn you into just another killer?
