I’m looking for something where the main character/characters have to build things to survive and maybe hunt. Also world exploration is a big plus (new flora and fauna.)
Vibe should be adventurous, and the genre doesn’t matter, it could be sci-fi, fantasy, etc.
Below is a list of media that fit what I’m looking for:
Book Examples:
Robinson Crusoe,
Swiss family Robinson,
Hatchet
Tv Examples:
The 100(first 2 seasons),
Lost in Space,
Journey To The Center…,
Manga Examples:
Uninhabited Planet Survive,
Kanata no Astra,
7 Seeds,
Any help and suggestions are appreciated.

If you like short stories, The Most Dangerous Game by Richard Connell has an element like this
Gary Paulson (author of Hatchet) wrote a number of similar books that would also fit your description. Even some sequels to Hatchet.
The Road by Cormac McCarthy might also fit. It’s a survival story about a father and son set in a postapocalyptic future. Fair warning the book is pretty bleak.
