Cosmic Outpost
Entertainment
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
COMMANDER, YOUR EXPEDITION AWAITS.
You've crash-landed on an uncharted alien world. Your mission: build humanity's first deep-space research outpost, recruit a crew of brilliant misfits, and uncover the secrets buried in the planet's core. Then do it all again on a brand-new world.
Cosmic Outpost is a retro pixel idle game that respects your time. Numbers go up while you're away. Real choices await when you come back.
BUILD YOUR OUTPOST
Place extractors, solar arrays, research labs, bio domes, and shield generators on a top-down grid. Balance your power grid, expand your storage, and watch your base evolve from a few survival shacks into a sprawling alien colony.
MANAGE A LIVING CREW
Every crew member is a named individual with stats, traits, equipment, and relationships. Recruit Geologists, Astrophysicists, and Xenophiles. Watch rivalries form. Forge bonded duos with synergy bonuses. Equip them with gear from basic kits to legendary alien-tech.
IDLE PROGRESS, ALWAYS
Resources flow whether you play for 5 seconds or 5 hours. Come back to stockpiles, completed research, and finished expeditions. Cookie Clicker-scale numbers from Minerals to Stellar to Cosmic to Universal.
10 ACTIVE MINI-GAMES
When you want to play, the game rewards you. Drill into the planet's core, decode alien signals, dodge asteroid showers, capture wild creatures, and sort quantum particles. Skill earns bigger payouts. Mini-games are rewards, not chores.
EXPLORE A PROCEDURAL WORLD
Each planet is procedurally generated with unique biomes, creatures, resources, and hazards. Send expeditions across the hex map. Tame strange alien lifeforms for passive bonuses. Survive distress signals, meteor strikes, and seasonal cycles.
RESEARCH AN ALIEN TECH TREE
Branch into Geology, Xenobiology, Engineering, and Quantum disciplines. Unlock new buildings, automation tiers, and game-changing bonuses that reshape your strategy.
PRESTIGE — PLANETARY EXODUS
When you've conquered a world, abandon it. Carry Artifacts to your next expedition and spend them on permanent upgrades. Every new planet is a fresh layout, a fresh ecosystem, a fresh story.
