In Mars Horizon you will have to try on the role of the director of a space agency: from the first flights into space to landing on Mars! Take part in the space race: each agency can be the first to reach the Moon if they play their cards right. Real problems and challenges await!
- Build a base with launch pads, research centers, astronaut training facilities, and much, much more
- Assemble a rocket from hundreds of available components
- Launch satellites and manned spacecraft
- Turn-based missions in which you will have to fight for scientific recognition and public support
- A branching technology tree and fierce competition on the way to Mars
- Five unique space agencies with their own technologies, bases, and features
- The ability to create your own agency
The history of space exploration depends only on you.
Is it better to focus on research or try your best to get ahead of the competition? There are no single right decisions on the way to Mars. Every choice you make matters: try to improve technology or risk everything and go to the red planet?
All the problems and challenges you will face are based on real events.
Management is a key feature of Mars Horizon. To win the space race, you will need to build the right spacecraft, hire the right people, and make the right decisions.
Team up with other agencies and share in the success – or be the only one to bask in the glory. Build the perfect rocket from real components. The engineers you hire can give you a huge advantage over your competitors.
Launching the rocket is just the beginning. In step-by-step missions, you will take on the role of a dispatcher and help the crew cope with numerous problems. Space is cold, cruel and unforgiving.
One bad decision can lead to the failure of the operation: is it better to immediately fix the faulty antenna or save resources in case of an oxygen leak? Or maybe three additional months of development would have helped to avoid such problems altogether?
Mars Horizon was developed with the support and active assistance of the European Space Agency (ESA) and the UK Space Agency.
Without the invaluable experience of the experts from ESA, we would not have been able to create Mars Horizon. The gaming industry has never seen such a level of realism and accuracy as we were able to achieve thanks to the help of real engineers who worked on the Mars program.
