Description

The Cerulean Vale DLC is included in this version.



Build a new home for humanity with Aven Colony.

Discover Aven Prime - an alien planet of deserts, tundras, and jungles light years from earth. Aven Colony puts you in charge of humanity's first extrasolar settlement, where you build and expand your small colonies into massive, sprawling cities while dealing with the challenges faced when settling on a new world.

Build your colony's infrastructure, look after the well-being of your citizens, manage your resources, and guide your colony to prosperity against the backdrop of the harsh and often dangerous realities of the exotic world of Aven Prime.

KEY FEATURES:


COLONIZE AN ALIEN WORLD: Build a new home for humanity on a world with a low-oxygen atmosphere, extreme electrical storms, shard storms, dust devils, deadly toxic gas eruptions from geothermal vents, and days so long they have their own seasons. Explore a variety of biomes, from the lush wetlands environment to the much less habitable desert and arctic.


MEET THE LOCALS: Encounter a variety of alien life forms, including giant sandworms, deadly plague spores, and a vicious fungal infection known as “The Creep.”


SUPERVISE YOUR COLONISTS: Settling a new world can be stressful. As a new Colony Governor, you’ll need to work overtime to help your colonists deal with their new environment. Using the 12 distinct "overlay" modes, you can mange your colony's Crops, Citizens, Happiness, Crime, Air, Electricity, Employment, Resources, Commute, Structures, Drones, and Water. Earn the respect of your colonists, and rise in rank from Colony Governor to Expedition President!


DISCOVER THE PAST: The world of Aven Prime holds many secrets. Play through a full single-player campaign and participate in a story that reveals some of the many secrets of this brave new world.


BUILD THE FUTURE: Use construction drones to build dozens of types of structures to house your colonists, establish trading routes, welcome immigrants and much more! Enhance your existing buildings through several upgrade tiers to push your colony to new heights!


EXPEDITION SYSTEM: Deploy your crack team of pioneers to explore alien ruins, recover artifacts, repair crashed vessels and rescue lost explorers. Get ready to take on plague and creep spore nests whilst fending off splinter groups, rebels and Aven Prime's remaining robot guardians which threaten your new civilisation.


PREPARE FOR WINTER: A fully functional day/night and seasonal cycle. During the winter Aven Prime freezes over - farms will not grow food and solar panels will generate far less electricity. Take measures to survive this harsh climate!

Simple sci-Fi city builder.

I would describe it as a cozy kind of city builder. Not nearly as deep as Surviving Mars or similar, but a functional game that scratches the itch of a sci-fi city builder without exhausting you. Easy to play alongside having a serious on or while relaxing. It is good for what it is.

Futuristic CityBuilder with a story

I fully recommend this game. In it's essence it is a city building game with a story - on a distant planet, player is assigned to build certain amount of functional settlements and it is accompanied with a story telling from the first to the last mission. Story is not ultra master piece but it is nice. Graphics are really nice and smooth but at the end there is a FMV and animation is really bad (90s level of animation). Still I think this game is worth and I hope Team17 will continue to explore this genre. Technically it is really good - no crashes, no glitches, no hicups.

Great game

This might be very personal, but I loved this game. Great graphics, fun and very addicting game play. One of the standouts is that it lets you play at your own pace, I took a slow but careful approach to building each of my colonies and really enjoyed every map. It's not huge on action, but lots of fun regardless.

The worst part is the dialogue

The game is like other games you have played in the genre. Aven Colony tries to stand apart by incorporating different levels of colony management. Most of the game is managing water, food, housing, etc., but there is an attempt to have each colony feel like it is on a big empty planet waiting to be explored. The attempt doesn't work, but it was a nice try. I think you can get twenty hours of out this game, if you can stand the unskippable, super cringy dialogue.

Looks good, runs well and fair priced.

Even more so on a sale. It's a nice and relaxing game, or if you want crank up the difficulty setting to get more hands on. There is a good amount of main missions as well possibility to play skirmish. A bit more content would pull this game up to a 5, such as more events, enemy faction activities, special buildings etc. in map and in overview.
