The fully synchronized single-player campaign with 10 missions requires all your skills as the commander of Spacebase Startopia to create one of the most attractive trade and tourism destinations in the known universe. Each of the three decks demands your leadership abilities. The lower deck contains all the essential rooms for survival, while the Fun Deck focuses on your visitors, and the Bio Deck provides sufficient resources for survival and serves as a home for the graceful Dryads. Compete against your rivals, as you are not alone on the space station. Sabotage your opponents' economy or attack them with your mech units, engage in trade, and beware of space pirates looking to invade your station. The dynamic narrator AI "VAL" responds to your decisions and is always by your side in word and deed—occasionally with some rather unqualified comments. In addition to the extensive single-player campaign, you can expect a customizable sandbox mode as well as a competitive and cooperative multiplayer mode for up to four players.
