In "Calling Home," players gather resources, build and automate outposts, and explore distant planets to discover ancient alien technologies. These discoveries can be used to research new upgrades, augment player characters, and unlock new structures. The ultimate goal is to find a way back home while also uncovering valuable technologies to bring back to your home planet. The Mechanical Advisory Recollection and Search Unit aids in these efforts.
