Planetrism is a scifi role-playing game where you experience the life of a colonist on an exoplanet light years away from Solar system.

In the future, 200 years from now, Mankind has spread throughout the Solar system. Earth is overpopulated, polluted and in midst of a sociological-economical turmoil due to scarce resources. First interstellar colonization attempts have provided a new opportunity and hope for better future. But is it enough. Beneath the fragile surface of peace lies the seeds of new ideological, political and economical conflicts. As new colonists head to distant exoplanets in a race to claim new resources, an important question is almost silenced - will Mankind establish a paradise or just repeat its past mistakes.

Player can determine his own goals in the game, although he has to consider and plan his actions in the context of survival elements and carefully manage the resources available.

 


 

The player can create an unique role-playing character with different attributes and skills, learn new skills and improve while game progress. Mastering certain skills may prove crucial to surviving on an alien environment, and player has to choose carefully how to use his time and what to learn.
