About This Game

EXPLORE. REBUILD. SURVIVE.

The world ended, and you're one of the few left standing. Novo: The Colony puts you in charge of a small settlement of survivors rebuilding from the ruins of the old world. Every decision matters: who you send out, what you risk, what you bring back.

MANAGE A LIVING COLONY
Build up housing, farming, a workshop, salvage yard, defenses, and more — each building unlocking new ways to keep your people fed, hydrated, and ready when trouble arrives. Prioritize between food, water, scrap, defense, morale, and recovery.

SEND SURVIVORS TO EXPLORE AND SCAVENGE
Dispatch a small roster of heroes — a scout, a builder, a soldier, and an operative — each with real skills, personality, and a stake in the future of the colony. Missions can fail. Resources can be lost. People can die.

A STORY WORTH FOLLOWING
Explore nine distinct regions across a ruined world, each with its own contacts, factions, and secrets. Uncover what's happening at the edges of your map — and follow a personal thread that runs straight through the campaign, from your first day rebuilding to the truth about what the Collective took from you.

DEPTH THAT REWARDS ATTENTION

  • Multi-chapter story campaign with meaningful progression

  • A world map full of contacts, intel, and alliances worth pursuing

  • An awareness/threat system where staying quiet is sometimes the smartest move

  • Atmospheric painterly art and fully voiced narrator bring the colony to life

  • 28 relics and 73 achievements to track your colony's history

Novo: The Colony is developed by a small, focused team — every system built to make your choices feel like they matter, because in this world, they do.
