Weird & Wry’s simulation game The Spatials: Galactology has come of age as a full Steam release!

 

A genre-bending mix of base building and resource management gameplay with a dynamic loot system and randomly-generated galaxies, Galactology features deeper, more rewarding mechanics than the original game … and enough content (and new features!) to satisfy even the most hardcore simulation fans.

Back in 2015, The Spatials surprised quite a few reviewers with oodles of depth, humor, and seemingly endless replayability. The game’s sequel is now fully mature and available on Steam for all major desktop operating systems: Windows, Mac and Linux.

My God, It’s Full of New Features!
Galactology is The Spatials reimagined as a much larger and more rewarding simulation game. With mod support and active pause, the game adds new items and structures to build, trade routes to exploit, planets with many new variables, sophisticated AI, civilizations that actually attack your station – and unique gameplay systems behind every object and room. The game also ships with full Steam Workshop compatibility and includes a large chunk of gameplay source code with every copy sold.

The galaxy the Spatials once knew has changed. The Federation is collapsing, a 5,000-year-old cat is leading a revolution, strange cults are flourishing, and the worst chef of all time is a TV superstar. It’s time for the Spatials to start a new era of science and diplomacy by building the ultimate tourist trap – er … vacation hotspot in the outer reaches of the universe!
