Outer Frontier

Outer Frontier is a turn-based, point-and-click strategy game about managing a colony of people on a planet in space. You make choices about your colonists’ lives, then advance a year to see how your strategy plays out. The game focuses on survival and growing your colony against the odds.

Colony management

You sow crops, hunt beasts, build homes and mine valuable resources across four themes. As your colony grows, you need to secure enough food, balance its needs with the environment and manage the dangers created by mining.

Four themes

• Grow: Expand the colony while securing enough food to sustain its people and balancing their needs with those of the environment.
• Mine: Search for the planet’s valuable resources efficiently to maximise profits, while accounting for the increasing danger your activities bring to the area.
• Society: Keep your growing tribe happy and try to remain in power as its problems increase.
• War: Lead one of two factions fighting for control of the planet; only one can win.
