Build settlements, lead your people, and design weird monuments for a space delivery guy who is pretending to be your God.
Earthlings
SteamEarthlings is a minimalistic resource & colony management game set in ancient times. A space delivery guy accidentally became your God, and you are the only one who can understand his requests. After he turned your pharaoh into a cat, it's probably wise to cooperate with him for now. He wants you to create art he can sell across the galaxy, so you direct your people to build settlements, design monuments, and deliver them on time. Your new overlord can get impatient when things don't go smoothly, so he may accidentally trigger additional challenging events you'll need to handle.

Build thriving settlements and coordinate your hardworking Earthlings using an satisfying grab & drop mechanic. With small teams, every decision counts - prioritize resource gathering, construction, or monument building based on current needs. Grow your settlements to recruit more workers and unlock smoother, more efficient operations.

Here's where creativity meets strategy - design custom monuments using collectible part cards. Each part offers different bonuses once your creation launches into space. Experiment with combinations to get exactly the buffs your settlement needs, whether that's faster workers, better defenses, or resource boosts. Plus, watching your wild architectural experiments come to life is genuinely satisfying!

Launch your completed monuments into space to earn valuable boosters and build the reputation your boss craves. Miss a deadline and he gets impatient, triggering chaotic events you'll need to handle. He's also fond of throwing "optional" extra requests your way - and you know how those go... they're never really optional.

While settlement building stays peaceful, venturing into new territories for resources brings some excitement - unfriendly wildlife, tricky environments, and your boss's anxiety-triggered events. Keep your teams safe and operations running, because losing experienced workers slows down your carefully planned efficiency.
As you progress, you'll build settlements in more challenging biomes. Don't worry if you can't complete them on the first try - that's part of the fun! You'll permanently unlock new part cards with better bonuses, upgrade existing cards, and gain access to new buildings and in-level upgrade options. Return to previous challenges stronger than before, while dynamic biomes and events keep each playthrough fresh.
