Surviving Mars #7 — Rare Metal Extraction and Third Dome
0With our brand new electronics factory completed, we now can produce every resource we need. We only need rare metals to do so. Thus, a rare metal extractor and a third dome to house new employees are necessary.
In the meantime, turns out that housing this many colonists does have an impact on our food stocks. Negative impact, that is, and the amount of food stored is starting to shrink. We need to produce more, and a fungal farm seems like a better solution than hydroponics.
Then we also build another polymer factory, since we have nothing to do with this much fuel and polymers are always needed. Staffing it could be an issue, but whenever the new dome completes, we should be able to hire enough new colonists. We also connect the new dome with a redundant pipe, in case of another meteor shower.
Now it's time to furnish our new dome! An apartment complex is a no-brainer. Next comes a school and a nursery, since some colonists are already being born here, and an outdoor gym to keep people's health in good state.
With access to the meteor plateau we can now start scanning anomalies there. Soon, we also get a message from one of our scientists who wants to experiment near tone of the domes. We survived a meteor shower and a rock concert already, so what is one more dangerous experiment? We agree of course.
Before the third dome is completed, we already order another shipment of colonists. Somebody needs to staff all the added facilities. Especially the newly-researched drone assembler that should be able to solve our issues with drone load.
Then we finally complete our water extraction operation and connect it with pipes to our colony. This should ensure no water issues again.
Lastly, we start building a ramp to the other plateau, since there's some stuff we might need there. And we swap the housing in micro dome for an apartment complex, since the dome needs many more workers now.

Colonize Mars and discover her secrets, with minimal casualties.
Welcome Home! The time has come to stake your claim on the Red Planet and build the first functioning human colonies on Mars! All you need are supplies, oxygen, decades of training, experience with sandstorms, and a can-do attitude to discover the purpose of those weird black cubes that appeared out of nowhere. With a bit of sprucing up, this place is going to be awesome!
Surviving Mars is a sci-fi city builder all about colonizing Mars and surviving the process. Choose a space agency for resources and financial support before determining a location for your colony. Build domes and infrastructure, research new possibilities and utilize drones to unlock more elaborate ways to shape and expand your settlement. Cultivate your own food, mine minerals or just relax by the bar after a hard day’s work. Most important of all, though, is keeping your colonists alive. Not an easy task on a strange new planet.
There will be challenges to overcome. Execute your strategy and improve your colony’s chances of survival while unlocking the mysteries of this alien world. Are you ready? Mars is waiting for you.
MAIN FEATURES
* Building a sustainable colony in space *
Building on a planet not fit for human life challenges you to build a smart, functional colony. Bad planning isn’t about traffic jams, it’s about survival of your colonists. You really don’t want rolling blackouts in a city constructed in a place without oxygen.
* Individually simulated colonists *
Each colonist is a unique individual with problems and strengths that influence the needs and behavior of the other colonists. Things can get really interesting if your chief scientists develops alcoholism after one too many long nights in the lab.
* Futuristic Space Dome construction *
Retro-futuristic super structures housing colonists, factories and commercial buildings with their own “neighborhood personality.” Create colonies that value science over everything else, while tired workers drink their pay away at a local bar, or attempt a utopia among the stars.
* Exploration of Mars’ secrets *
Inspired by the classic sci-fi of Asimov and Clarke, Surviving Mars holds many secrets. During each playthrough players may encounter one of Mars’ individually crafted mysteries. Uncovering these secrets might bring your colony great fortune, or terrible ruin. What is that sphere that manifested itself outside colony HUB B, and is it friendly?
* Randomized research tree *
Combine static and random research through experimentation, which allows for a different experience for each journey through the game. Attain new scientific breakthroughs by exploring the uncharted terrain of Mars's surface.
