ARES-1 Colony Command is a browser-based Mars colony survival simulation. You’re the commander of humanity’s first permanent settlement on Mars — and keeping it alive is harder than it sounds.
Each Martian sol (day), your colony passively consumes oxygen, food, water, and power. Random crisis events hit every sol — dust storms that kill your solar output, oxygen leaks, greenhouse contamination, crew conflicts, equipment failures, and more. You must make real decisions with real tradeoffs: shelter the crew from a solar flare (costs power) or ignore it (costs health). Quarantine the fungus (lose food) or study it (gain score). Every choice matters.
Survive all 100 sols to establish the colony. Lose your crew or a critical resource and the mission fails.
