A unique engineering challenge awaits
Besiege, developed and published by Spiderling Studios, is a physics-based building game that invites players into a sandbox world of creative destruction. The game first launched in Early Access in January 2015 and was officially released on February 18, 2020.
Players are challenged to construct mechanical machines using a wide variety of modular blocks—such as wheels, cannons, and rockets—to complete objectives that often involve destroying structures, defeating armies, or solving puzzles. With its intuitive building mechanics, the creative possibilities are nearly limitless.
Designed for creativity and precision
Besiege features an intuitive and flexible 3D building system, allowing players to create anything from tanks and catapults to planes and mechs using an extensive collection of over 70 building blocks. The drag-and-drop functionality makes the construction process easy to grasp yet deep enough for precise engineering. Players can adjust and rotate individual components to perfect their designs, experimenting with physics to achieve balance and efficiency.
The game’s clean and user-friendly interface supports building through organized block menus and helpful design tools. Players can test their machines instantly to see how they perform under real-time physics simulation.
Engaging gameplay with beautiful graphics
In Besiege, players are tasked to construct creative mechanical machines to complete a wide range of objectives across carefully crafted levels. The gameplay emphasizes creativity and experimentation, as players design, build, test, and refine their inventions using an intuitive building system and diverse selection of parts. Campaign levels offer varied challenges, often requiring players to destroy fortifications, defeat enemies, or solve environment-based puzzles. As players advance, new constraints and mechanics are introduced to keep the experience engaging and inventive.
Visually, Besiege stands out with its distinct low-poly art style and vibrant environments that are both appealing and accessible on a wide range of hardware. The physics engine realistically simulates destruction, making wood splinters and collapsing structures a satisfying sight. This clean and colorful aesthetic enhances the overall experience, providing a charming contrast to the delightful chaos of players’ creations.
Replay value and community involvement
Besiege offers remarkable replayability, keeping players engaged well beyond the main campaign. The single-player campaign features progressively challenging levels that test players’ engineering skills and creative problem-solving. Beyond the campaign, the sandbox mode allows for complete creative freedom, giving players the tools to design and test an endless variety of machines and contraptions.
A key part of Besiege’s success lies in its active and passionate community. Through the Steam Workshop, players can access and share user-created machines, mods, and levels, greatly expanding what the game offers. The officially supported modding tools and level editor make it easy for players to build, customize, and experiment. This collaborative environment fosters creativity, ensuring a constant influx of fresh content and making Besiege a playground for imagination.
A creative sandbox of limitless possibilities
Besiege is a unique and engaging game that allows players to unleash their inner engineer. Its blend of physics-based gameplay, creative building, and challenging puzzles provides hours of entertainment. With endless creativity in sandbox mode and a thriving community of builders, this game continues to inspire players to engineer, innovate, and enjoy the art of controlled chaos.
