Outpost (1994)
Genres:Simulator
Game modes:Single player
Story:In the first part of the 21st century, scientists discovered a huge asteroid named Vulcan's Hammer headed straight for Earth. A single corporation decided the only way for survival was to colonize other worlds. One ship was launched and as it sat in orbit around Jupiter, Earth was no more. Now it is your task to seek out a new planet and repopulate it with human life. The game is set in an isometric third person perspective, like that of Simcity, in which you must re-colonize the planet while dealing with the intricacies of day-to-day life.Show more

DON'T. PANIC.
Look, let's face it - this game is objectively ass. It was literally a scam, promising features that either never existed or were added as only surface level fluff via a quick patch. They lied to reviewers who played Beta versions of the game, describing stuff that they then based their reviews on (which, to be fair, the reviewers were really stupid to do, but it was maybe understandable because Sierra was a big company back then and why would they lie?) What mechanics it does have are pretty shallow and boring. One playthrough will be largely identical to the last, and you'll get mostly the exact same events and stuff.
And yet...there's something about it isn't there. The game looks the part. There's some sick obsession with the idea that, ya know, maybe I just haven't figured out how to play this correctly yet...and I think that it's a pretty notable title in history that ought to be preserved in some form.
That game deserves lots of respect even though it did NOT make a huge impact when it was released, but still the game is unique and has ideas that are entertaining as well as interesting enough to keep the player invested into the story.
P.S. the female A.i. has a dark sense of human.
i still have a very old Compaq laptop with this game installed on it..... MSDOS-based i think from 1994 and i have not booted it since then but this game was a lot of fun and very atmospheric in story .,.. and challenging. Outpost 2 was better but i miss this one.
