Planetbase

Planetbase is a strategy game about guiding space settlers as they establish an outpost on a remote planet. You act as the base architect and manager, directing colonists to build the structures they need and keeping them supplied with oxygen, food and water. Your goal is to grow a self-sufficient base in a harsh environment where failure is always a risk.

Build and supply the base

Colonists collect energy, extract water, mine metal, grow food, manufacture goods and produce bots. You can harness solar and wind energy, when available, to power structures; grow hydroponic vegetables and synthesize Vitromeat; and mine and process resources into goods through production chains. The mechanics are plausible, though the game is not intended as a simulator.

Manage the colony

Control the flow of colonists arriving from immigration so the base has people with the skills it needs. You can mechanize demanding tasks by creating bots, and expand the settlement from a few pioneers to a planetbase with hundreds of colonists.

Planets and hazards

The game features four planets with different conditions and increasing difficulty. Your colony may face meteors, sandstorms and solar flares, as well as intruders who threaten the base.
