Purple Sands is a large desert north of The Shrieking Forest and south of The Iron Trail. The region is immediately recognizable for the purple hue of its desert sand and satellite like structures partially buried everywhere in the desert.
The region itself is barren, but occasionally Cannibals, Shrieking Bandits and Beak Things wander into the area from other regions.

| Before building an outpost, players should find information about specific areas through Prospecting. | ||||
Sandstorms constantly plague the region allowing it to have high wind speed. Due to absence of water, the area is considered an area of extreme climate and one of the most inhospitable regions in the game. Also, prospecting reveals no raw resources within the region further reinforcing that the region cannot be colonized. Occasionally individual beak things may be found lost in the desert.
Weather[]
This zone has the 'purple desert' season. Seasons may cause harmful Weather Effects or be purely aesthetic.
