🎁 Is this the game itself or a DLC?

This is the full SAND: Raiders of Sophie game, Standard edition, delivered as a Steam gift. You don't need any base game beforehand — once you accept the gift, SAND appears in your library as a standalone game.

🌍 Why does the account region matter for the SAND: Raiders of Sophie gift?

The gift is region-bound. Your Steam account region must match the region of the chosen variant — otherwise Steam refuses the gift. Pick the variant for your region before buying.

🔐 Do I need Steam Guard to receive SAND: Raiders of Sophie as a gift?

No. The gift can be sent to an account without Steam Guard. The key requirements are that your profile allows friend requests and you don't already own the game.

🤖 What if the bot didn’t add me as a friend for SAND: Raiders of Sophie?

Usually the cause is friend requests being closed in your profile, or an expired/incorrect invite link. Enable friend requests and send a fresh s.team/p/... link — we'll retry the delivery.

🏗 Can I play solo?

Yes. SAND supports both solo and crew play: there's the calmer open-world Voyage mode and the riskier, battle-royale-style Storm Dive with richer loot. The game is in Early Access and actively evolving.

I mixed up the region ordering SAND: Raiders of Sophie — is my money gone?

No. If the SAND: Raiders of Sophie gift cannot be delivered because of a region mismatch, the order value is returned to your Brawl Games balance. You can immediately reorder with the correct region from your balance.

SAND: Raiders of Sophie — walking fortresses on the planet Sophie

SAND: Raiders of Sophie is a PvPvE extraction shooter set on the dying desert planet of Sophie in an alternate 1910. The twist here isn't the usual soldier with a rifle — it's a giant walking fortress called a Trampler. You build it your way, bolt on weapons and modules, take the helm, and roll out into endless procedurally generated dunes hunting for loot, weapons, and priceless artifacts. The goal is simple and brutal: gather your haul and extract alive while rival crews try to do exactly the same thing at your expense.

The game is made by Ukrainian studios Hologryph (Lviv) and TowerHaus (Kyiv), published by tinyBuild. SAND launched into Steam Early Access on June 22, 2026. Here you buy the game itself (Standard edition) as a Steam gift, delivered straight to your account.

What a Trampler is and why everything revolves around it

A Trampler is your mobile base on legs: home, arsenal, and transport all in one. Customization runs deep — hull, weapons, and modules can be rebuilt to fit your playstyle. Want a heavy ram that bulldozes enemy fortresses head-on? Go for it. Prefer a nimble scout machine that grabs an artifact and slips away before rivals close in? That works too. This is where SAND's signature rhythm comes from: you're not just running around a map, you're driving a personal mobile fort across the sands.

Two modes: Voyage and Storm Dive

SAND has two core modes for different moods and risk levels:

Voyage — a calmer, persistent open-world experience with lower stakes. A good place to settle in, farm, test Trampler builds, and learn the desert.
Storm Dive — a higher-risk, battle-royale-style mode: the loot is richer and the rewards are bigger, but so is the chance of walking away empty-handed. This is where you go for adrenaline and valuable trophies.

You can play solo or as a full crew — co-op here isn't bolted on, it's woven into the very idea of piloting a big machine.

What you get when you buy

You're buying the full SAND: Raiders of Sophie game, Standard edition, as a Steam gift. This is not a DLC or an add-on — once you accept the gift, the game lands in your library as a standalone product, and you don't need any "base version" beforehand. Since SAND is in Early Access, the developers estimate roughly a year in that phase, with ongoing content and fixes — you get access to the current build and to all updates released during that period at no extra cost.

How we deliver the gift

Delivery goes through a Steam gifting bot. You provide your Steam friend invite link and your account region. The bot then adds itself to your friends, sends the gift, and leaves your friends list on its own after delivery — no manual accepting needed. Delivery usually takes a couple of minutes from checkout, though that's typical speed rather than a hard guarantee. Steam Guard is not required to receive the gift.

About region — read carefully

A Steam gift is region-bound. This is the most common stumbling point: your Steam account region must match the gift region, otherwise Steam simply won't let you accept it. So pick the variant for your region at checkout and state your account region honestly. The second hard requirement: SAND must not already be in your account's library — Steam won't accept a gift for a game you already own.

Who SAND: Raiders of Sophie is for

If you love extraction shooters where every run is a gamble — extract the loot or lose it all — and you want something fresh instead of yet another guy with a backpack, SAND is exactly that. Building and tuning a walking fortress adds a layer most genre rivals don't have. Into similar runs and co-op survival? Check out The Forever Winter — a co-op survival shooter that Steam bundles together with SAND, or Rust with its survival and loot raids. And if you want hardcore extraction specifically, take a look at Escape from Tarkov.

Quick answers

This is the full game, not a DLC. No base version needed in advance. Steam Guard is optional. The key requirements are a matching account region and not already owning the game. If the bot couldn't add you as a friend, it's almost always closed friend requests or an expired invite link: enable friend requests, send a fresh link, and we'll retry the delivery.
