How it feels

Managing a private space corporation feels like slowly expanding a complex network of colonies and ships across the solar system, balancing resource extraction and infrastructure.

What players say

Players are split on Solargene. Many praise its potential but find the clunky UI and poorly designed tutorial a major obstacle. Others are frustrated by a tedious comfort system that forces constant building to satisfy ever-increasing colonist needs, calling it repetitive.
