Offworld Trading Company

You run a corporation on colonized Mars, competing with rival companies to become the dominant business on the planet. The conflict is economic rather than military: the goal is to build enough financial leverage to buy out your competitors. Scan the Martian surface and claim resource tiles, then build facilities to extract and process materials. Your choices shape a player-driven market: increased supply can push prices down, while scarcity can make goods more valuable. Stocks and black-market actions offer additional ways to pressure rivals. Play through a single-player campaign featuring CEOs with different traits, or take on skirmishes and multiplayer matches using different corporations. Maps, available resources, and market conditions vary between games; the Jupiter’s Forge expansion also adds scenarios on Io, where resources deplete over time.

Run a Martian corporation in a real-time strategy game where resource production, market shifts, and stock buyouts replace armies.
