The world-machine is broken. The sun has become a baleful orb of radiation. The Celestial Bureaucracy is in disarray. You, the Captain-General of a great ark, must lead your people rimwards, away from the gaze of the green sun.
Survive your voyage by maximising your production of valuable resources:
- Food fuels your buildings, and stockpiles increase their cycle speed.
- Production allows you to construct more buildings on your ever-expanding ark.
- Inspiration enables you to hire crew members with unique skills to improve your buildings.
- ... or buy buildings and hire crew members outright by spending Gold at the dockside markets.
Pick between a range of Great Houses, each with their own unique ark, buildings and crewmates. Command House Arioch's golden flagship, the Diurnal Ark, and harness the expertise of their engineers and artisans - or choose House Mnesis, whose ark, the titanic Shepherd Moon, is a motherlode of precious raw materials.
Exploit the Houses' specialities, mitigate their shortcomings, and lead them to a safe refuge on the rim.
- Explore a vibrant world, with diverse biomes and settlements.
- Choose between 5 Great Houses to lead to victory.
- Cook up the perfect city with >100 buildings & crew members.
- Play at your own pace with pause and time acceleration.
- Multiple routes to victory, either focusing on peaceful production or blasting your enemies into submission.
