Surviving Mars

A city builder on mars. It starts with an interesting idea and a lot of problems to solve. In the early game you have to prepare for the first colonists on mars, here you have to find resources and build up the infrastructure. In the mid game it become more a surviving game. The colonist want food, air and water and not having enough can end the game quick. In the late game it is just a city builder where you build a pretty, self-sustaining colony. To spice things up there are mysteries (scenarios) to tie in a little story. While the game is mostly based on science (or Scifi) the mysteries can go wild. While I started with random mysteries I now pick one I havn't played at the start. While the easy start is too easy and just for the first steps or for people who want reach the city builder without to much trouble, the normal game can be tweaked in many ways to change the difficulty to your liking. While a hazardous landings area with low resources make the start very difficult it is not impossible to mess up the mid game on an easy starting point. Bugs and flaws: I might be lucky but I havn't encounter any serious problem, the worst I manage to do is get a rover stuck in a dome, but he got out again the next day. While you can but shouldn't have to move you colonists around, I had one dome where I want my specialist to go and they were very stubborn because the dome was full and my shuttles busy. It just took a long long time. But other then that I don't feel the need to micro manage, it works on its own when it is configured right from the start, and manual transfer works too if the shuttle not to busy. My conclusion, definitely check it out when it is on sale, you will get the opportune to spent more money on DLCs if you want to. As a Paradox game you can expect more content to come, some for free some for money to pay the people who are working on it.

Decent game, but has a bunch of flaws :(

I like the game, played a few games of it over the last few days. Until I realised that this game can't last... I always prefer sandbox/freeplay so I can do what I want, and not follow some silly mission narrative. Or fix some pointless problem I don't care about. But what's the point if every water well runs out and all mines bottoming out at some point mean I can't continue my game - Sigh... The AI/personal placement is lacking too. One colony failed because I couldn't get metals. Fine, place a better dome, right? Wrong! It didn't work, because workers refused to live in the dome for mining. So no jobs would get filled there. Resulting in the whole thing failing. Why wouldn't they live there to save their lives? Because I had a bunch of empty residences elsewhere... You know, upcoming expansion. In the spirit of survival stuff, just like with games like Banished and Planetbase, this is a game breaking flaw. Why is it allowed to NOT operate a mine that is so super vital for the entire base (and thus my games enjoyment) to fail JUST because people prefer to life in housing elsewhere, too far from said mine. C'mon AI. Screw you :( The mysteries are weird, uninteresting, and more annoying than anything else. I dealt with the cube one, which kept breaking buildings in my base without notification. Or purpose other than to make it more difficult for the player. Random events are more annoying than anything else, too... Spend billions on a rocket with all kinds of stuff to save a colony and it explodes on landing... Fine, shit happens... but 2-3 times in a row? Moxies randomly exploding/disappearing without warning? Running out of applicants (on earth) just because the game thinks that's ok? Geez... How can one progress like that... So yea, I'm sure for a whole bunch of people this is a really fun game. And I'll try it again in a few weeks I think. I think it's a good enough game overall. But some flaws and bad luck that ruined it for me this time around.

Draws and Keeps my attention!

Purchased the First Colony Edition during the Summer Sale 2020. I like computer games, but as a rule I have no patience to play them. Surviving Mars earns a 5-star rating from me for being one of a handful of games to break this mould. I very much enjoy the game, starting from the theme, through the gameplay and design. I especially enjoy playing through the various mysteries. I am delighted by the Green Planet expansion, as it plays to my favourite subgenre of sci-fi. I have palyed less than 100 hours, so I'm not even a novice at the game; yet I feel that I will be playing this one for a long time to come, due to the variation in Mystery and Commander profiles that really add flavour to the game. I can't wait to see what expansions they come up with next.

When Something Doesn't Work It Sucks

The game seems like a pretty good concept, but when something doesn't work you are royally screwed. I play A LOT of these games and though they may have their nuances, the game shines when it makes it clear what they are and how to deal with them. This game does a horrible job of that. The tutorial is pretty good, but once you start the game if you get stuck on something you have to search it up on forums and blogs. You should never have to go on a full college research tangent just to play a game. If you want to know advance tips that's one thing, but when the game doesn't make it crystal clear why multiple things are not working that is a huge problem. The game is simply unintutive. Here is an example, you click everything to get an interaction menu to edit and delete stuff. That makes sense. But certain items you have to go into the menu, under a certain section, and get a special salvage tool to get rid of them. Why not just make it a double click? Why make it complicated? That is the simplest example. The UI is horrrrrriiiibbbbblllleeeee. Managing colonists should be two clicks. There is too many complications just to manage colonists amongst other things. There is too much micromanaging just to get your transport drone to keep bringing you material across the map. No I don't want to have to keep telling my drone to keep getting material every ten minutes. JUST GO DO IT. Same with the explorer. Just let me click a button and have him go explore. I setup a tranport network for my colonist to get around, why isn't it working? Just tell me. I shouldn't have to look up a reddit guide just to figure it out. This should be apart of the UI. Compound these issues across entire game and you have something that takes too many small things you have to keep learning just to enjoy it. I don't have time to get a degree in learning bad UI flow to enjoy some downtime. Improve the UI, improve the selection flow, and make playing this game intuitive as it should be.

Supprisingly good

In the begining it doesn't look so great, but it gets better, and better with time. It doesn't have this hard-to-easy curve of citi builders but rather the oposite - like now I got some epidemy on earth of some spacebug one tourist got on mars. Also it has the mods available to download with Paradox Workshop.
