About
The Last Caretaker is a thoughtful survival-crafting game set on a flooded Earth, where you play as a reawakened caretaker robot. Your mission is to recover human seeds, nurture them, and launch them to humanity's last orbital refuge, shaping the future through every decision.

Earth is submerged, leaving behind colossal megastructures under a yawning sky. As the last caretaker, you awaken to a crucial mission: recover the dormant human seeds and guide them to safety. Uncover the echoes of past caretakers and grapple with the meaning of being human in a world reshaped by its own choices.
