Space Colony: Steam Edition
Strategy 30 April 2015
This is the second (after Space Colony HD) attempt to refresh a classic economic space strategy game, which was created by Firefly and released in 2003. This new edition was created with support from the Steam digital distribution platform. The game is set in a distant future and the player's goal here is to establish an efficiently working network of space colonies, on behalf of Blackwater Industries. The mechanics present combined elements of strategies and simulation games, such as The Sims. The player gathers resources and erects subsequent buildings for military and recreational purposes. Simultaneously however, the player has to take care of security-related issues, as well as to make sure that the workers are happy enough at their workplace - this can be difficult, as each of the workers has a different personality and individual preferences. Apart from the enhanced, HD graphics, this edition brought completely new contents, which resulted in the single-player campaign now having more than 80 missions. The creators provided the game's full support of the Steam platform (Steam Workshop for instance).
