It's a good game, my one major dislike is that when i login it takes from 5-15 minutes to load because the: resources, building upgrades and population increases load individually... the power and food also appear to do this.. very annoying!

Nice game. It has good concept. I think it will be better if we will have battle with some martians or like intruders. Much like we could defend ourselves from enemies. And conquer/destroy their bases or outpost. Other than that the game is great.

Most times real actors ruin the game. But this one pulls you in and doest let go. Colonize the moon! This is gonna be epic. Game play is point and click. but a very good story and acting along with it being a game to play and not to pay makes you stay interested. Thanks dev for a wonderful game.

The biggest issue I've ran into is the constant decompression of buildings. Seems like when you first load up the same building is found to have structural issues constantly to where you can't do anything else. Other than that, its a fun easy game to play.

C70%
by C####:

Really well put together. Solid background on primary characters, strong diversity. Controls are simple and definitive. Overall power management is a good balance, but these scientist eat with a purpose, constant fight to keep food on hand. Rovers tend to "wander" after a few minutes... Like the drivers get distracted from mining and end up lost in a secluded corner. Also the active rovers on the map do not correspond with those in the menu. The reports about a rover in distress are unhelpful without being able to track them down.

Seems like a good game but ....i read ratings about point and click .or stuck in tutorial. I wish. I havent managed to play at all. Just build a bunch of stuff that idk wat it does for me and doesn't appear to do anything. Controls need to be simplified maybe a few instructions that work or maybe just say straight up wtf is going on. Between all the ads you don't have time to understand wtf ur looking at

Bugs... Still need to repair the center view between switching satelite mode and normal mode, there appear to be different view.. and at first, i can find any button to center my view on base.. The population habitat also give error on the maximum population count. When i add another habitat module, it suddenly double the head count, where i only have 60/60 ppl, and become 163/80. I suppose it should be 60/80. Then the food become scarce and i need to built another 7-8 food recources, because it is not enough, where the gameplay objective only ask built 1 greenhouse. Abit confusing...

Until now it's neat game. The concept is strong, both story wise and strategy.will come back to it with pleasure. Thou thing could get better especially the deployment of building, rotate would be an plus. Oslo offline collection.

Z70%
by Z####:

this could be so good... if only it wasnt a greedy advertizing money making idiotic repetitive tasks clicker witha gameplay setup that is beyond any logic or practicality. the controls are hideously nimble, the in game dialogues ridiculous and quite frankly, the whole thing just lives from its enticing graphics. the popup screens for managing rovers and people and buildings are from the 17th century in terms of usability. nevertheless, i played into my 2nd colony now, always hoping it gets better - it doesnt though. disappointing on so many levels.

I've played this long enough to experience any problems, and I've experienced plenty. My device is MORE than capable of playing the game, but as you progress, the game becomes difficult to operate. It acts erratically and the screen jumps all over. There are NO Instructions or information on how to play, beyond the initial tutorial, which leaves you asking more questions. Support ?? What support. I sent them a detailed email on game play problems and asked questions about game ... there response was .... NO RESPONSE !! NO REPLY !! you play this game at your own peril. Don't expect any support or answers to your questions. For that I'm rating no higher than 1 star. This could be a REALLY Great game, if only you could get assistance and they fixed the problems. I've been a game player for over 40 years and have the qualifications to rate this game as hard as I have

Y70%
by Y####:

The biggest problem is resources do not collect when not playing so to progress you must leave the game running which is a drain on your battery etc. That has ruined the game and so I must uninstall.

L70%
by L####:

Why do the colonists have to be told to harvest if they're hungry? Do they move electricity in buckets instead of over wires? Why is the game so braindead that it will run the supplies into the ground instead of pausing? Why do you have to store all silica and metal in an expensive barn instead of piling it outside like would be done in the real world? Uninstalling.

N70%
by N####:

I love it, but I think that I would add more complex buildings. Such as two or more buildings of the same type that reach level ten, might converge into a larger building. The same with food and energy buildings. Maybe add a multiple layers for above and below ground construction.

C70%
by C####:

Stuck at tutorial, asking me to build a building, but my resources is not enough and the tutorial screen keeps me from collecting resources... I still don't why developers keep making a game with a locked tutorials.... I just don't get it....

Stuck on tutorial waste of time installing ,seriously 5 min after install will be uninstalling ,what is the point of a game like this?

Z70%

This game is a waste of internet downloading. Not even 2 minutes into the games. I hated it. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS GAME!!!!

Z70%

I don't like that a building has to be fixed so often But other than that it's great

Z70%

Got the money to open another base but unable to transfer supplies to pay for construction of base station . Needs better feed back from developers and a HELP button . Some screens for specialists do not scroll

I was not able to play with a device from 2009 not recommended for low quality or old devices

Need little more tweaking to make more realistic.Do a little more cinematic experience like you did in beginning of the game, for each segment of the storyline but it's a very good game with great graphics.

Amazing game

A70%
by A####:

When i have max colonists my happiness goes down even with full power and food. This concept shouldn't exist. The same building keeps decompressing. It would be great if it randomized better. The rovers dont collect efficiently. They roam past silica or metal when they're searching to collect some.

Z70%
by Z####:

Right from the get go I am disappointed with this game, it is along the same lines as My Colony. It looks slightly more advanced but the fact that is has a pay to win feature means that I am going to stick with My Colony.

Z70%
by Z####:

the game at first seemed ok. but it has terrible things that make you stop playing. if you enter the main menu, everything you did before with 2 or 3 minutes is lost. you can not start the game unless you see it A 30-second movie. And then we do not talk about the rest. I understand that life on Mars is tough but the game is not at all balanced since. a.i. the game is horrible. the machines remain stuck in the middle of the wilderness. I do not find the way to the base or I'm sitting in the middle because I do not know where to go

R70%
by R####:

Good game honestly, but far too many bugs. I saved the synthium you're given for free and used it later on to build and rush the launch pad. Went to work. Came back. The pad was gone along with a few other buildings, and the synthium was still gone. That happened THREE times. I lost around 150 synthium. Rover mechanics blow. No way to figure out where they are without scouring the map. They don't follow instructions. They get lost for no reason. A few other very annoying bugs, as well, usually fixed by game restart.

Z70%
by Z####:

I really like this concept. I want to keep playing. At the moment needs work, when I try to load a game the ad glitches out and loses the game. When I started game and everything's running fine eventually the Rover mechanics stops doing what I tell it to do. So if I'm trying to mine they just randomly start exploring. So now I've come close to maxed out avaliable buildings and cannot find out how to progress in the game. Once the game is all fixed I will definitely give 5 stars.

G70%
by G####:

Good game. Needs some changes to be perfect. Auto gather food and electricity. Also show what a Rover is mining for after you send it to mine. Some strange bugs after first 2 levels, I cannot transfer deuterium from second base to third in order to launch shuttles. But nice game after all
