When the storyline kicks in later in the game it’s text heavy, so may cause a problem for some with smaller screens. Once I adjusted it, it wasn’t too bad, but it was never really possible to casually speed read. I played this on a 50-inch screen and even on that, sitting quite close, the text was difficult to read.
Without some prior knowledge it’s hard to know how important some of the starting factors of the various sponsors are.Īlready from the screenshots you might notice one problem.
SURVIVING MARS BELOW AND BEYOND PS4 FULL
I would recommend selecting Quick Start from the main menu, just to play for an hour so and get an idea of how things work, before starting a full game. It also shows how abundant the three main resources are: metals, concrete and water (I guess they discovered it after all). Once you’re all set up, you can then choose where on Mars to land, with further indication of difficulty shown by the proclivity of dust devils, dust storms, meteors and cold waves. From the start screen, you can choose your difficulty by way of selecting your sponsor (there’s a cheeky nod to “SpaceY”) with each sponsor offering different perks and starting funds.
This elevates it above standard fare, and while I did encounter a few gripes, this was more to do with the controls and amount of information to manage on a PS4 (as opposed to a PC) than any inherent problems.īefore you can even begin to think about colonists there is the first of three stages. There’s a couple ways they’ve done this: through the colonists, who can have a variety of personality traits as well as specialisations, (and can be renamed, like all the units) and through the addition of mysteries (more of which later). Much like that game, they have done their best to inject a sense of personality into what could have been a pretty cold, sterile game. S urviving Mars is a city-building game set on Mars published by Paradox Interactive and developed by Haemimont Games, the creators of Tropico.
