概要

Deep in the cosmos near the Copen Nebula, a routine expedition turns into a fight for survival when your ship crash-lands on a mysterious planetoid. Adaptory is a 2D base-building simulation that combines rigorous system management with character-driven storytelling, challenging you to build a thriving colony from the wreckage.

ストーリー

Lead a crew of four distinct explorers, each with unique personalities, fears, and backstories, who were sent by an international agency to find a new habitable world. Stranded on an alien rock, the narrative emerges dynamically through their interactions, struggles against isolation, and the secrets buried within the planet's crust.

Gameplay

At its heart, Adaptory is a game of interconnected systems where physics and thermodynamics rule. Players must manage breathable atmosphere, power grids, and thermal regulation while excavating resources and researching advanced technology. Every action has a reaction—solar panels power lights, lights enable plant growth, and plants scrub carbon dioxide to keep your crew breathing.
