Zolarg Empire – Insectoid swarm-style economics
Alpha Draconians – Advanced reptilian overlords

Ratings and Reviews
Amazing, but frustrating
I’ve been looking for a simulation game like this for a long time. One where you can manage resources and build a colony without having to constantly click a building to collect resources or wait hours/days for a building to finish. You can play at your own pace even play effectively for free if you want.
I want to love this game, but keep running into the same roadblock: not knowing what I’m missing to move to the next tier. I’ll unlock a research, but the buildings it says it unlocks don’t show up. I usually spend 15 minutes for every hour of play trying to find out what I missed in order to unlock the new buildings. It starts to get frustrating after a while. Would be nice if all buildings unlocked would show up and show the building/research requirements they are lacking, similar to how they do with mission resources.
We definitely need more games like this out there!
Very cool throwback
This game is a wonderful reminder of the games I used to watch my brother play on the SNES as a kid (I was waaayy too young to figure it out lol).
Hours of fun strategizing and resource management, which is something I’ve been looking for in a game for a long time.
True, I have had one issue, but after reading other reviews I figured it out: When I switch between the My Colony app to another app and then come back, the app will not let me place anything, telling me that the location is blocked. I was frustrated but read some reviews about people having other issues and realized that closing the app and re-opening fixes most bugs, including this one!
This may be an issue that the developer is aware of and working on, I dunno. Either way, with such a small issue vs. the amount of fun I get from the game, it definitely deserves the full five stars.
Excited to see what develops from this start!
Great but one thing....
This app is amazing! It really is. But a while back I purchased the premium to get rid of ads and get creative mode. Because the app was getting buggy, I deleted it. It was in iCloud the whole time when I deleted it. ( keep that in mind ) Then a week ago I reinstalled the app, definitely not as buggy but now even after restoring my purchases creative mode doesn’t work. I can build, but there is nothing on the screen. Just the menu and a little icon saying. “saving game...” Even with the regular mode as well. I would appreciate if the developer could fix this in the near future as this was one of my favorite games.
