About the Game

The Colony Experiment is a unique take on the colony simulator genre. You are in control of a colony being observed and tested by The Scientist. You are not the first batch of Joes... and you most certainly won't be the last. Unless you can survive long enough to break the cycle.

Take control of the Joes and build your colony from the ground up. Gather resources, grow food, raise livestock, craft the tools you need, and expand your settlement. Every decision matters as you manage your colony and adapt to the challenges of each new experiment.

Not every Joe is created equal, leverage the skills of your Joes when assigning them to tasks and activities. Take advantage of their merits to make sure they can be all the joes they can be.

Build, harvest, cut trees, mine stone, hunt, craft, research, fend off rogue Mikes and find where The Scientist is hiding to break free.
