ExoColony: Planet Survival

ExoColony: Planet Survival is a colony simulation game set on a distant planet. Starting with a small group of colonists, you mine resources, refine materials, build structures and research technologies. Across generations and centuries, you expand the settlement into a civilization and terraform the planet to make it habitable.

Colonists and resources

Colonists are born, educated, work, retire and die. Across generations, their needs may evolve and their dedication may diminish. Materials follow cycles of production, consumption and recycling: nothing simply disappears, as resources transform into something new.

Sustain the colony

You turn barren soil into farmland using materials from your surroundings, melt ice for water, grow food and purify water for reuse. You also convert colonists' exhaled carbon dioxide back into oxygen, manage industrial pollution and other gases, and maintain atmospheric pressure as your base expands.

Mining ores and minerals provides raw materials to refine into advanced materials for buildings and crafted items. You manage temperature, ecosystem growth and water resources to terraform the planet, create a breathable atmosphere and make the surface habitable.

Develop your settlement

Research unlocks new possibilities, buildings and recipes through a research tree. You generate and store energy from different sources, manage unwanted materials, and produce luxury food and goods to keep colonists productive. Meeting their social needs during free time helps prevent unrest, while temperature control applies both inside the colony and across the planet.

Cosmic events

Strange events can happen in the cosmos. Some may be beneficial, while others are less welcome.
