Surviving Mars - First Colony Edition

Colonize Mars and discover its secrets, with minimal casualties.

Welcome home! It’s time to stake your claim to the Red Planet and build the first functioning human colonies on Mars! All you need are supplies, oxygen, decades of training, sandstorm experience, and a can-do attitude to discover the purpose of those strange black cubes that appeared out of nowhere. With a little sprucing up this place will be great!

Surviving Mars is a sci-fi city builder all about colonizing Mars and surviving the process. Choose a space agency for resources and financial support before deciding on a location for your colony. Build domes and infrastructure, explore new possibilities and use drones to unlock more elaborate ways to shape and expand your settlement. Grow your own food, mine minerals or just relax at the bar after a hard day’s work. Most important of all, however, is to keep your settlers alive. Not an easy task on a strange new planet.

There will be challenges to overcome. Execute your strategy and improve your colony’s chances of survival as you unlock the mysteries of this alien world. Are you ready? Mars is waiting for you.

• Building a sustainable colony in space – Building on a planet unsuitable for human life challenges you to build a smart, functional colony. Bad planning isn’t about traffic jams, it’s about the survival of your settlers. You really don’t want a power outage in a city built in a place without oxygen.
• Individually Simulated Settlers – Each settler is a unique individual with problems and strengths that affect the needs and behavior of the other settlers. It can get really interesting when your chief scientists develop alcoholism after too long a night in the lab.
• Futuristic Space Dome Construction – Retro-futuristic superstructures with settlers, factories and commercial buildings with their own ‘neighborhood personality’. Create colonies that value science above all else, while weary workers drink their wages at a local bar, or attempt a utopia among the stars.
• Exploring the Secrets of Mars – Inspired by the classic sci-fi of Asimov and Clarke, Surviving Mars holds many secrets. During each playthrough, players can encounter one of Mars’ individually crafted mysteries. Uncovering these secrets could bring a great fortune or terrible ruin to your colony. What is that atmosphere that manifested itself outside colony HUB B, and is it friendly?
• Randomized Research Tree – Combine static and random research through experimentation, making each journey through the game a different experience. Achieve new scientific breakthroughs by exploring the unknown terrain of the surface of Mars.

Unique Retro-Futuristic Aesthetic – A sleek, modern take on the bright futurism of the 60s. A time of exploration and adventure.

• Extensive Mod Support – Create your own fantastic buildings, parks or even a mystery to share using Surviving Mars’ extensive and useful modding tools. Share your best creations with the community to build the perfect society.
