elujäämispõhised

Elujäämispõhised is an Estonian term that translates to "survival-based." It is primarily used in the context of gaming and describes a genre of video games where the central objective is for the player or players to survive for as long as possible against various threats. These threats can include environmental hazards, hostile creatures, or other players.

Survival-based games often feature mechanics such as resource management, crafting, building shelters, and exploring to find essential supplies like food, water, and medicine. Players typically start with minimal equipment and must gradually improve their chances of survival through skill and strategic decision-making. The element of scarcity and the constant threat of death are key components of the genre, encouraging players to be cautious and resourceful.

The popularity of survival-based games has grown significantly in recent years, with many titles offering both single-player and multiplayer experiences. Multiplayer survival games can be cooperative, where players work together to overcome challenges, or competitive, where players must not only survive the environment but also contend with each other. The open-ended nature of these games allows for a high degree of player freedom and emergent gameplay, making each playthrough potentially unique. Examples of popular survival-based games include Minecraft, DayZ, Rust, and The Forest.
