Ixion

Ixion is a city-builder set aboard the Tiqqun, a prototype space station carrying the remnants of humanity away from an Earth on the brink of ecosystemic collapse. As Administrator, you must guide the station and its crew toward a new home while managing scarce resources, threats and the consequences of your decisions.

Manage the Tiqqun

Build, maintain and develop the station’s infrastructure, and manage its population and jobs. You can unlock six sectors, each able to house more people, support new jobs and offer opportunities to monitor the crew with the Data Listening System. Find survivors and recover cryopods while maintaining the crew’s trust in DOLOS and the mission; losing that trust can lead to failure and mutiny.

Research technologies and find resources to meet the settlement’s needs. Construct new buildings and modify and improve the Tiqqun as you work to keep it moving forward. The crew’s requests and the effects of your choices can shape what happens immediately or later, with survival depending on how you respond to the consequences.

Survive in space

Space brings dangers including hull breaches, overloaded power supplies and electrical fires. You must manage these risks, handle emergencies, create backup power solutions and enable Extra Vehicular Activity.

Explore the stars

Send probes to reveal what is hidden in stellar maps, and build mining and cargo ships to gather resources. Science expeditions uncover secrets and threats, while encounters with other survivors offer the chance to bring them into the mission. The story unfolds across chapters that present new dangers and opportunities on the route to a new home.
