What is Farlanders: Prologue?

A free, single-player, top-down strategy game about building an Earth settlement before a mission to Mars. You manage water, food, energy, and minerals, connecting farms, pumps, power sources, and mines with pipes and cables. Each new map is procedurally generated, and preset terraforming shapes change the terrain differently depending on where you place them.

For you if...

+you prefer measured planning over real-time resource management

Not for you if...

−you want to expand freely without strict mission deadlines

What players say

92% of 301 reviews are positive

Players praise the strategic depth behind the simple rules. The main complaint is that random map layouts and terraforming choices can make success depend too heavily on luck.
