Colonials Programme

Colonials Programme is a fun game with a few bumps along the way. If you soldier your way through a rough beginning, you’ll find a game that has been crafted quite well. With that being said, the beginning is a slog that is likely to lose some of the users before being given a fair chance.

  • Engaging puzzle and colony management gameplay with a well-balanced challenge that becomes more complex over time.
  • Cute visual style and humorous characters, providing a relaxing and charming atmosphere with nostalgic music and sound effects.
  • Additional features like a map editor, achievements, and ongoing developer support promising future content and improvements.
  • Steep learning curve and a somewhat confusing start, with tutorials that could be clearer and a slow, sloggy beginning that may deter some players.
  • Some gameplay mechanics are frustrating, such as the high cost of dismantling structures compared to building them.
  • Limited appeal for hardcore or experienced base-building gamers due to simpler mechanics and a casual game design focus.
  • music
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game evokes nostalgia for early to mid-90s titles with its simple, relaxed soundtrack and sound effects. Players have the option to disable audio if desired, and the game's soundtrack is available for download from the developer's website. Additionally, fans can find extra content and updates through the developer's site.

    • “It also brings back nostalgia of games from the early to mid 90s with the simple look and the music and sound.”
    • “Music and sound effects are relaxed and, if desired, it is possible to disable them.”
    • “You can visit the site of the author of the game where it is possible to get some gifts (such as a soundtrack, map, and a skin), as well as find out news about this and subsequent games of the developer.”
  • story
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is light and entertaining with good writing and some humor, though it serves more as a backdrop to the puzzle-focused gameplay rather than a deep narrative. Players can also create custom missions and maps to tailor the experience.

    • “There is a cute story with good writing; I chuckled a couple of times.”
    • “This is not so much a story about the construction of a colony, but a puzzle where you arrange colony details to balance resource production and consumption and complete the game task for the planet.”
    • “You can create a mission and map with desired parameters in the map editor.”
  • gameplay

    The humor is light and playful, featuring charming and amusing robot characters that add a relaxing and enjoyable tone to the campaign.

  • replayability

    The inclusion of a map editor significantly enhances replayability by allowing players to create and explore custom content, extending the game's lifespan beyond the original scenarios.

    • “The map editor is a definite plus for replayability.”
