How it feels

A relaxing, low-pressure colony builder that quietly runs on your desktop wallpaper, letting you build at your own pace in a colorful voxel Mars.

What players say

Players describe Desktop Mars as a desktop background colony sim that runs while you do other things, though it can slow down computers. Some find the early pace too slow and colony collapse frustrating, while others praise the relaxing idle gameplay. The tutorial video is outdated, and there is no fast-forward option for time.
