Spacebase Startopia (PC) - Steam Gift - GLOBAL

Spacebase Startopia is a simulation game, that combines elements of a classic economic strategy, and an RTS-like skirmish. The game is a sequel of wormly received economic strategy, Startopia, developed by Mucky Foot in 2001. The game features a decent dose of humor, and entertaining, a bit cartoonish, 3D graphics. Spacebase Startopia gives players a chance to step into the role of a commander, whose task is to build a prospering, full of all sorts of life forms, space empire. Story background The player gets in charge of a space station, that hasn't been used in the last seventeen years. The shipboard artificial intelligence known as VAL recognizes the player as the only intelligent life form nearby and hereby nominates us the new commander. She also mentions the fact, that the last commander 'disappeared' in mysterious circumstances, after a closer encounter with a worm-like alien life form. Gameplay Starbase Startopia is a space base-building game with features characteristic for an empire building simulator. The player's job is to manage the whole space station and bring back its greatness from the old days. As the commander, we must take care of the finances, economy, and general satisfaction of the inhabitants, represented by a variety of different alien life forms from all over the galaxy. The game features 8 alien races, each with different needs and personal preferences - in order to be a successful commander, we should satisfy all of them. The base consists of three levels - the Sub Deck, the Fun Deck, and the Bio Deck. The first one is the place where we can find all the life support devices; the Fun Deck is, as the name suggests, responsible for the entertainment, while on the Bio Deck we can grow plants, and gather essential resources. As we progress in the game, each Deck can be upgraded by adding new equipment and premises. Developing out space station is the main, but not the only element of the gameplay. Our station is not the only vessel in the galaxy - players can encounter other spacecraft that they can trade with, or even attack them with an army of mechs. The mechanical soldier can also be helpful during space pirates attacks. Starbase Startopia features an engaging single-player campaign, a sandbox mode, and a multiplayer mode, in which players can both, cooperate or compete against each other.
