Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
Characters all wear Star Trek - like jump suits -- again, you can choose the colours -- and move about well, with nice animation loops.
32 of 242 sampled reviews raised it
Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
The game’s approach to progression is one of incremental rewards: unlocking new rooms like farms, medical bays, kitchens, and research labs brings meaningful advantages and changes to how your colony operates.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The graphics are pretty decent, I especially like the mining beam animation.
