Manage Your Own Park on Mars Attracts
Developer Outlier is inviting players to take part in an Alpha playtest of Mars Attracts starting on 4th December 2024. You can sign up for it at www.MarsAttracts.com to be one of the first to explore the Mars Attacks theme park management sim.
The Alpha playtest offers players their first chance to dive into the game’s unique features. It showcases Martian landscapes both above and below the surface, offering plenty to explore. Players can manage colorful human enclosures designed to keep their captives entertained. A research system allows experiments on humans to unlock exciting new upgrades for their park.
Mars Attracts brings together the detailed management systems and strategic gameplay that fans of Roller Coaster Tycoon, Theme Hospital, and Zoo Tycoon know and love. It combines these rich, immersive mechanics with a unique retro-futuristic aesthetic that nods to classic B-movie vibes. The game’s playful, darkly humorous tone adds a mischievous edge, offering a refreshing twist that keeps things engaging.
The game was first unveiled in August 2024 with a trailer at Gamescom that quickly hit over 1 million views. It is set to launch on Steam in Early Access in 2025. Whether you’re building your own space empire or navigating quirky challenges, it promises an experience that’s both nostalgic and exciting.
