On Mars

On Mars is a strategy board game that challenges you to build a self-sustaining colony by balancing Earth-supplied logistics with on-planet development.

Set in 2037 and beyond, you lead a private enterprise as chief astronaut, shuttling between the Mars Space Station in orbit and the colony surface. In orbit you secure blueprints, develop technologies, and manage supplies; on the surface you deploy bots to construct and upgrade buildings, explore with a rover, and recruit scientists while fulfilling contracts. As infrastructure grows—mines, power, water extraction, greenhouses, oxygen production, and shelters—your focus shifts from importing resources to producing what the colony needs to survive. Winning comes from meaningful contributions to the colony’s expansion and efficiency, with tight timing around travel and action access each round.
