What is The Riftbreaker: Prologue?

This free, single-player isometric action-strategy prologue takes place on Galatea 37 before the main game's campaign. As Captain Ashley S. Nowak in a mech suit, you explore, gather resources, construct industrial facilities, and fight hostile creatures while establishing a base to open a route back to Earth.

For you if...

+you enjoy balancing exploration with an outpost's growing resource needs
+you like preparing defenses against increasingly strong attacks

Not for you if...

−you want a full campaign rather than a prologue
−you prefer fighting without managing resources or constructing buildings
