In this episode of Rimworld Anomaly, we continue our 500% Randy Random run on the Sea Ice. A twisted obelisk lands on the sea ice and remains mysteriously inactive for the entire episode. We also send our several mining expeditions to acquire plasteel and components and turn prisoner Zarmal into our first slave. Suddenly, the still open pit gate rumbles and spits out an absolute horde of fleshbeasts than we can only defeat with a doomsday rocket launcher and the last-minute help of a Diabolus mech pair. Finally, the son of Lauren and Maniac is born - and immediately re-enters the growth vat to spare the parents the burden of actually having to take care of him.

The sea ice is without a doubt Rimworld’s most challenging biome: On these freezing cold ice sheets floating on water, there is no soil for plants to grow, there are no minerals to mine, and there is almost no animal life. Ruins and ancient dangers are also non-existent on the sea ice and even deep drills work differently here, so acquiring even the bare necessities becomes an incredibly difficult task. The sea ice is truly the final boss of Rimworld biomes!

We are continuing this playthrough from a Naked Brutality scenario in Rimworld Ideology and its second chapter in Rimworld Biotech. After obtaining the first two parts of the archonexus map, we select five colonists for the quest to find the third and last piece. As a result, our colonists start with a small amount of items and some starting equipment, but on the sea ice, that is not going to get them far without a good plan and some luck - especially since we are once again playing on Randy Random "Losing is fun difficulty" with the threat scale cranked up to 500%.

With the Rimworld Anomaly DLC, we also see a psychological horror theme added to Rimworld in what is arguably the most unique of the Rimworld expansions. A strange monolith is found on the map and things can soon devolve as horrifying entities appear and threaten the colony in ways never experienced before. In addition, Rimworld Anomaly also adds ways to contain these entities, dark new psychic rituals and a new ending to Rimworld.

Rimworld is a Sci-Fi colony builder simulation game focused on managing a small group of survivors with the goal of eventually building a space ship to escape the planet. Rimworld is developed and published by Ludeon Studios. After a successful Kickstarter campaign, the game went through several Alpha and Beta versions before seeing the release of the Rimworld 1.0 version in October 2018. This playthrough uses Rimworld 1.5, the latest update to the game.
