One ship. One untouched world. And no way home… except the one you build. A 4X real-time strategy MMO in the spirit of Civilization. If you love Civ, you’ll love this one.
From planetfall to the stars
One landing. One empire.
A colony ship lands on an alien world. You don’t start in the stone age: you start with a foothold, a handful of colonists and the knowledge of how to get back to the stars, but none of the industry to do it. You build that industry on the surface, hex by hex, until you can reach orbit again.
Then you push outward to the moons, the asteroid fields and new worlds, into a galaxy shared with every other commander. Explore, expand, exploit and exterminate.

Online, your empire runs around the clock: your colonies keep growing, your builders keep building and your defences keep standing guard while you are away. Plan ahead, queue your research and construction, set your defences, and come back to an empire that kept going.
Built on the blockchain
Every order is recorded on a shared, verifiable chain. Your colony's history can be checked by anyone, and nobody's game can be rewritten.
Your homeworld is yours
Every commander lands on a world generated just for them that nobody else can settle. Trade, alliances and war begin once you are off-world, in one galaxy shared with every other commander.
Five eras
From a landing site to an interstellar empire
ERA I
Planetfall
Name your commander and your world, pick your landing site, and bring the lander down. Shelter, power, water and food.
ERA II
Industry
Smelters, fabricators and labs; new settlements across the map; colonists to grow and keep happy.
ERA III
Orbit
Race the raiders to orbit, then build a second map above your world: the station core, habitats, satellites, foundries and a shipyard.
ERA IV
Local Space
Survey ships, moon bases, mining platforms, gas skimmers and a deep space station across every planet and moon of your system.
ERA V
Interstellar
A probe opens the galaxy. Send colony ships to new systems, and meet the other commanders: trade, ally, or go to war.
