Survival crafting games have been popular in the PC gaming landscape for over a decade, particularly since the rise of Minecraft. Many games, including Valheim and Palworld, have adopted elements from Minecraft, such as procedurally generated worlds and inventory loss upon death, but often struggle with crafting mechanics that feel uninspired and repetitive. The crafting process typically involves interacting with a crafting bench, selecting products, adjusting quantities, and waiting to collect items, which can feel like a chore. Some games outside the survival genre, like Potion Craft and Kynseed, have created more engaging crafting experiences, highlighting a desire for developers to make crafting more rewarding and exciting in future titles.
