Description

Settle on MARS in a mixture of game and scientific simulation. Take control over a tiny group of 10 settlers and choose a landing site on the barren Mars. Develop your venture from one single landing module into a thriving settlement with hundreds of specialized buildings and even more inhabitants.

Research & development of new technologies as well as exploration of the Red Planet are key for establishing a permanent presence in this hostile environment.

And you are not alone. Other settlements, each one controlled by a real human somewhere on Earth, are starting to grow everywhere and a competition for being the most successful Mars colony has already begun.

Wow, this is amazing! Part 1

Wow, I’m surprised, only by one developer, but still good, but could you lower the time, you aren’t giving us micro transactions, but if you won’t lower the time, could you implement ways we could lower the time, like the more population we have, the more you get of a special point that you earn when you increase in population, or something? But truly, this game’s positives are great! You get to place yourself anywhere, even the mountains, the valleys, craters, anywhere and there’s even height! I don’t know much about the game as of now because I’ve just started my journey, but this games still great! Will edit or write more once I figure out more about this.
