LOST GALAXY
MISSION TO THE
An upbeat city building, factory game about exploring a galaxy, with a humorous 1960s sci-fi twist.
Mission to the Lost Galaxy is a city builder that mixes in strong elements of exploration, factory building and narrative. It has a wacky, original trek vibe and leans towards cozier gameplay, while still having rich enough systems to be engaging and challenging.
If you enjoyed resource-focused city builders, like Pharoah, Tropico, Frostpunk or Surviving Mars, Lost Galaxy may have something to offer you. If you are a fan of the Star Control series, you'll find a familiar feel. If you love exploration and are tired of fighting in games, Lost Galaxy is made for you.
Here's some things our playtesters have said about early builds of Mission to the Lost Galaxy:
-
“Love the freedom to address problems how you want”
-
“There’s always something to do, which feels good.”
-
“I liked that you have solutions to bottlenecks from different angles.”
-
“I liked the moment where the game first asks me to build real infrastructure. That was exciting”
-
“I love that running out of food isn’t game over. I like recovering.”
-
“The writing is fun. I want to scan more to get more dialogs.”
-
“The scarcity and challenge of running out is cool. It felt like tension without being stressful.”
-
“I am enjoying the puzzle of building all the space structures and placing them so they have access to everything.”
