What kind of game is this? Kenshi is an open-world RPG of a different sort. It foregoes a deep, large story and focuses on a huge sandbox. The game offers endless possibilities to experience your own stories. Be it as a simple thief, a traveling merchant, or a builder of huge refuges to keep dangerous cannibals at bay.
Who is the developer? Developer Chris Hunt has been working alone on his project since around 2006. In March 2013, Kenshi was released in early access and recorded initial successes. Later, he formed a small team to make Kenshi the special RPG that it is today.
