About this game

An AI ship full of frozen colonists must find the best planet to be the new home of the human race. A randomly-generated text-based strategy game.

Push your luck: do you settle here, on this not-quite-ideal planet, or keep searching and risk your ship being damaged in the journey? The planets you encounter are randomly generated, and as you travel you encounter random events, so each playthrough is different. See the stories of the colonies you found, and keep trying for a higher score.

Ratings and reviews

I wish there were more events, because the current set is very limited for replayability. The sense of exploration has been replaced with just seeking a highscore, which is still fun in a timewaster kind of way I think, but it could be easily bettered. As well, it seems like landing safely with a damaged landing system is only possible on welcoming planets of a high enough tech level, or if you get that dyson sphere event. Maybe it would be cool if planets with lesser gravity did less damage.

A mildly amusing time-waster. Gets very repetitive after a while. Could use a bit more variety in the common events. The choices you make during gameplay certainly affect the outcome, but mostly not in a predictable way, and there don't seem to be many ways that I can use what I've learned on previous runs to help in a new one, which to me makes even a positive result vaguely unsatisfying. It feels like I'm just waiting for a random number generator to give me a good score.

This is by far the best game on my phone. The gameplay is challenging and it does have some replayability. Events are random and as such create a varied sorry each time. The game can get boring after repeated playthroughs, but it has a lot of potential. Overall, more events could be added, though that will happen as the game gets updated.
