Surviving Mars is a game where the objective is simple; build a colony that can survive on mars.
Personally I enjoyed this game, yet it is nothing we haven't seen before. It has the same basis as sim city expect instead of houses and buildings, there are domes and instead of factories, you have generators etc.
Another issue I found is the DLC. The game's trailer suggests that you are able to Terra-form in base-game, yet a pack is required for this. I was most excited about this part because I wanted to personalize my world, yet I found I couldn't do that. It also costs an extra $18AU.
Pricing seems fair as its only $30AU. I got this game for free off of epic games launcher.
Overall, the game is alright yet its nothing too new. I would suggest sim city over surviving mars. I'd give it a 6/10
