Build a city on another planet
Industries of Titan is a city-building game set in a space colony. The story sees the player building a new settlement on top of a failed previous attempt to colonize an alien world, potentially succeeding where your predecessors fell.
The game is similar in mechanics to the likes of City Island 5 – Tycoon Building Office Sim Game and Sim City 2000. Behind the sci-fi setting, it uses the same essential gameplay of harvesting various resources to construct more buildings.
Starting small
The player begins Industries of Titan with a single-floor headquarters. Your next step is to install devices within the building that will earn you fuel, energy, money, and other resources. Once these supplies start flowing in, you will be able to build more. As your city spreads, you’ll also head out into the ruins surrounding your settlement.
Exploring ruins
The main twist that separates Industries of Titan from typical city-building simulators is its science-fiction setting. Instead of starting from scratch, you will be building on the ruins of a failed space colony. As well as providing you with isotopes and relics, these ruins add a touch of storytelling to a genre usually free of narrative.
Fight rebels and conquer colonies
Part of the game’s narrative includes attacks by rebel forces. This involves building ships and giving orders to them to take out revel camps. Industries of Titan also includes various missions that hinge on taking over various rival sectors of the colony.
Uneven in places
Industries of Titan has some weak places. The mission feature becomes monotonous, and the rebel-fighting aspect suffers from how time-consuming it is to build ships. However, the variety of modes and features means that a player can ignore certain areas that turn out to be lackluster. As a result, the one real downside is the relatively limited game world.
