About the Game

Humanity lost Earth. What remains is a single ark, a massive vessel carrying the last of our kind, and you are its commander. Ark Atlas is a roguelike colony manager and auto battler where you run your Ark's economy while defending it against the incoming alien waves.

Manage the last remaining colony

Place and upgrade buildings on a tile grid. Position them to maximize adjacency bonuses. Maintain balance between interconnected resources for survival.

Defend the Ark

You will need to navigate through alien-dominated space. The Ark will encounter several waves of aliens before reaching a safer place. Produce a strong enough army during the management phase, and deploy them in strategic position for the combat phase.

Research and adapt

Select the best research option based on changing circumstances. Unlock new buildings and units, increase their efficiency, and discover new modifiers.
