What is Surviving Mars: Relaunched?
You establish a settlement on Mars in this single-player, top-down colony builder. You construct domes and life-support networks, balance oxygen, water, power, and food, and use drones to build and maintain infrastructure. This remaster includes the original game's expansions and adds an endgame assembly where you pass laws and can pursue independence from Earth.

What players say
53% of 2,387 reviews are positive · 73% of 61 in the last 30 days
Players praise the core colony-building gameplay and expanded management systems. The main complaint is that the relaunch adds too little to justify a separate full-price purchase, alongside reports of bugs carried over from the original. Recent feedback on stability is mixed.
