Exodus: The Colonization of Space Lands on Steam for the First Time

Explore the Galaxy in Exodus: The Colonization of Space

Exodus: The Colonization of Space arrives today on PC, opening the airlocks once again on a classic strategy game that first appeared twenty-eight years ago. Artex Software’s debut project, created for the Acorn RISCOS platform in 1997, has been restored and released on Steam, giving a much wider audience the chance to experience its retro vision of galactic discovery and expansion. Priced at 4.99 dollars in the United States, 4.99 euros in Europe, and 4.29 pounds in the United Kingdom, the game returns as an accessible window into an earlier era of space-themed strategy design.

Exodus: The Colonization of Space is a turn-based simulation where players chart unknown systems, establish footholds on distant planets, and shape emerging civilizations. Every world features a dedicated map that gradually fills with cities, factories, and farms. As well as many pieces that hold a society together.

Each planet’s climate, resources, and natural temperament influence how easily that settlement grows. So, expansion must be thoughtful rather than impulsive. Planning becomes the lifeline of a thriving colony, helping players weather disasters and transform fragile outposts into resilient home worlds.

Artex Software originally operated from 1997 to 1999, leaving a short yet memorable mark on the RISCOS community. After a long period of silence, the studio has resurfaced as a publisher to offer its first project to a modern audience. This new release gives players a chance to explore the roots of a strategy game. It has once lived on a niche platform and now glides onto PC with a renewed spark. So, go ahead and guide humanity across the vastness of the galaxy.
