Exiled to the Void

Exiled to the Void is a strategy game about leading a small orbital station and trying to keep its people alive after a catastrophe devastates civilization. In 2125, you are stranded in orbit around Europe, one of Jupiter’s moons, with two dozen people and very limited resources. Radiation, hunger and despair threaten the community as you work to build a viable society.

After the comet disaster

Humanity’s expansion into the Oort Cloud in 2107 disturbed a gravitational balance that had persisted since the Solar System formed. Millions of comets left their orbits, destabilizing the Scattered Disk and Kuiper Belt before plunging into the inner Solar System. By 2111, Earth’s cities and the colonies on the Moon and Mars had been critically damaged, leaving survivors scattered across the system.

In 2118, people developed plasma deflectors: powerful magnetic systems that create high-energy shields capable of stopping comets or asteroids tens of meters in diameter. Defensive stations and deflectors installed on small celestial bodies offered humanity a chance to recover. By 2125, after losing the competition for a safe orbit around Mars, your station has relocated to Europe.

Develop your station

You expand your orbital habitat with modules for different purposes, monitor the population’s needs, extract resources and distribute them fairly. Researching technologies and improving the station lets you establish outposts around Jupiter’s other Galilean moons: Ganymede, Callisto and Io. Your original group of outcasts can grow into a self-sustaining space nation.

Shape your society

The game is a sandbox, with the long-term aim of preparing your society to go beyond the Jovian system. To do so, you study all available technologies and build a sufficiently developed society on Jupiter’s moons. You can pursue cyborgization and mind uploading, or keep your people more biological and focus on genetic improvement.
