    Unturned isn't about changing the world, just surviving and crafting resources and a base. Minecraft is infinite and you can change the world as you please

    Unturned is a survival based game, which puts you in the ruins of society. Minecraft is much more of a building game and is not similar at all

    A simplistic sandbox similar to unturned unfortunately the similarities stop there. Minecraft focuses more on the creativity aspect while unturned focuses more on zombie survival.

    Veloren has looks like it will become a great game whenever it does get finished. However, they've been working on it for a long time so it's doubtful that will be anytime soon. At its current state as of Oct. 2021, it just isn't finished yet. Other than a cubelike world there are virtually no similarities between unturned and Veloren.
