During the adventure, players must find suitable locations to create a base that can provide essential living conditions. Apart from taking care of its maintenance and functioning, they will construct all the necessary tools and vehicles, fight unpredictable atmospheric phenomena, fix malfunctions, cultivate plants, and explore the little-known areas of Mars. And all of this in an environment that is not conducive to the human body.
Pyramid Games team assures that after the Early Access launch, the game will be continuously developed and enriched with new content based on suggestions from the community.
There are also plans to add a special Online Cooperative mode in the near future.
Mars is within reach thanks to these features:
🚀 Manage your supplies – check if you have: water, oxygen, food, and energy - they are essential for surviving on Mars... Stock up!
🚀 Build and upgrade your base – the functioning of the command center depends on properly placed electrical installations, repairs, and potential upgrades. Do not forget the unpredictable weather conditions that can affect the functionality of your equipment and base systems.
🚀 Conquer the planet – find a suitable terrain that is relatively flat and with easy access to underground ice resources, which will allow you to build a functional base.
🚀 Day and night – a realistic day and night cycle will allow you to feel the true atmosphere of visiting Mars; solar power is crucial to survival, so make sure the base is powered by enough panels, with batteries storing extra energy in case of a crisis.
🚀 Race against time – outages and malfunctions on Mars require quick responses, so continue to sharpen your skills in order to fix them in a flash.
🚀 An impressive garage – getting around the Red Planet on foot isn’t an especially enjoyable activity, so it’s best to use vehicles adapted to the planet’s surface – they can also be upgraded and modified, just like the quad with its storage crates or rocket engine. But the rover is the one which will be an integral part of your research work.
