Offworld Trading Company

Mars has been successfully colonized, prompting Earth's most powerful corporate giants to establish companies to sustain it. In this fast-paced economic real-time strategy game crafted by Civilization IV Lead Designer Soren Johnson, the battle to control the market is relentless. As space travel becomes achievable and Earth's resources become scarce, fortune-seekers flock to the next frontier: Mars. Leave Earth behind to rekindle the spirit of adventure and establish yourself as an industrial titan on the red planet. Shape the destiny of the Martian colonization in the dynamic single-player campaign. Encounter various CEOs, each possessing distinct skills and traits, offering extensive insight into their motives and strategies for Mars's future. Transform your allies into rivals! The robust multiplayer mode supports up to eight players, ensuring every match feels unique. Market dynamics shift based on your chosen starting corporation and accumulated resources. Strategic thinking is essential, and fragile alliances can quickly crumble when a chance to profit appears. In Offworld Trading Company, your weaponry is economic power rather than artillery. You must rely on the real-time, player-driven market as both your offense and defense. To succeed, you must make difficult decisions regarding resource acquisition, production, interaction with the criminal underworld, and stock market maneuvers. With a dynamic economy and numerous resources, every path to victory is distinct. Immerse yourself in the corporate struggle on Mars with a soundtrack by Grammy Award-winning composer Christopher Tin (known for "Baba Yetu" and Civilization IV). The retro-futuristic score combines orchestral elements, piano, and synthesizers, using unique pitch dives and electronic effects to create an otherworldly atmosphere. If profiting on Mars was difficult, surviving on Jupiter's volcanic moon, Io, is even harder thanks to the included Jupiter’s Forge expansion. Resources deplete over time, forcing you to adapt faster than your rivals. Life support is so demanding that Mars will seem like paradise by comparison. Additionally, test your skills in the 1000 Map Challenge leaderboards. Jupiter’s Forge includes its own campaign, new Io-based maps, two extra factions, new patents, resources, and more.
