Seed was an MMORPG from Runestone that was set in a world where humanity wished to colonize other planets, sending "seed ships" to carry out the task. Something went wrong and life began on the wrong planet, cut off from Earth and further resources. Seed was unique in that it was devoid of combat and instead completely focused on RPG gameplay. Unfortunately, the concept did not attract enough players, and the game shut down in September 2006, a few months after release.
