What is PeriAreion?

PeriAreion is a single-player strategy and simulation game about establishing humanity’s first foothold on Mars. You choose one of three landing sites, direct colonists to extract and refine materials, build base modules, and research upgrades. Dust storms, accidents, and oxygen shortages threaten the colony as you work toward self-sufficiency.
