Mars Base

Mars Base is a colonization game set at a human outpost in the Erebus Montes region of Amazonis Planitia. As the expedition’s main botanist, you turn Martian soil into farmland and grow the crops the colonists need to survive. With no resupply from Earth, the colony must sustain itself using what it can produce and find on Mars.

Grow the colony

The base has dozens of facilities, including crafting facilities, research labs, solar power plants and greenhouses. You use raw resources supplied daily by fellow colonists to improve toxic, barren soil and expand agriculture. Growing a variety of crops helps provide the micronutrients the colonists need, while modular planters can be combined in many configurations and autonomous robots can take on much of the work.

You can interact with the other expedition members, learn their stories and help with their tasks. Every two Earth years, more colonists arrive with additional job expertise, helping the base grow from an outpost into humanity’s first extraterrestrial city.

Explore Mars

Beyond the base’s safe perimeter, Mars has wind-swept plains, cyclopean mountains, gigantic pyroducts and vast caverns. You can brave surface dust storms and explore underground mysteries to find resources for crafting tools and supplies, and to help advance the expedition’s scientific research. Bring what you find back to the base to support survival or expand your agricultural projects.

Life at the base

You can use your free time to cook meals from freshly grown produce, race Mars rovers for research, or build rockets to explore other celestial bodies beyond the red horizon. Your assigned living space serves as a fully customizable home base where you can sleep after a day’s work.
