About This Game

Astrocraft: Prologue is a free first-person space station tycoon. You arrive at a barren asteroid with little more than a mining laser and a gravity generator. Mine your first ore, smelt it in your first machines, open your first shop, and watch space travelers dock at your station to buy your goods. Then hand the work to robots: a mining bot digs, an operator bot runs the machines, a service bot stocks the shelves and takes the money. Finish your station, grow your first plants, and keep building in free play for as long as you like. There is no time limit and nothing to buy.

Mine

Laser-mine asteroids for ores, crystals, and minerals. Survey rocks with a scanner, blast the tough ones with explosive charges, and unlock stronger lasers as your station levels up. Different asteroids yield different resources.

Produce

Turn raw rock into goods. Smelt ores into ingots, cook up chemicals, and keep your machines running while you are out mining.

Automate

Build your robot crew. Buy specialized bots for mining, machine operation, and shop service. Each robot has fixed skills, needs to recharge, and wears down over time. Repair them at the right moment to keep your station running at full speed. There are no conveyor belts: what each pallet calls for decides where the robots carry things.

Sell

Run your own space shops. Stock shelves, set up displays, and serve diverse space travelers, from traders and diplomats to smugglers and military personnel. Take cargo contracts at the Cargo Console for bigger payouts, or fulfill delivery requests at the Station Terminal to level up your station.

Build

Construct your station room by room inside the gravity field. Place shops, factories, habitats, and landing pads, and connect levels with ramps. Step outside the bubble and you are in zero-G with a jetpack.

Grow

Set up your first pot, plant sprouts, and harvest a fresh ingredient for your machines. Harvested ingredients go straight into your machines.

Progress

Progress along the Trade, Mining, and Production tracks and unlock new gear at the Station Terminal. Two full tiers of unlocks are yours to earn, and the station keeps running after the last one.

Play together

Build your station solo or team up with up to four players in online co-op.
