Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri - PC Game

You are looking at computer game Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri.

After the 20th century, humankind reaches it's hand out across the stars. Seeking to escape the overcrowded chaos of Earth, the United Nations builds a single seedship, the UNS Unity, and sends her on a mission towards the Alpha Centauri star system. After a long journey in cryogenic suspension, the Unity reaches Alpha Centauri where the Captain is killed under mysterious circumstances. Suspecting the motives of one another, the officers and the crew split into 7 factions, each lead with a distinct ideology and motives that they seek to build the planet in their image...

Alpha Centauri is best compared to Civilization 2, but features many distinct differences in gameplay and thinking. Alpha Centauri starts with the landing of colony pods on a barren planet with society becoming fractured. Bases produce nutrients, materials and energy. Nutrients are required to feed to population, Materials are used in production and energy represents the commerce effect which can be traded to players diplomatically or spent on improvements.

Research is divided into 4 types of technologies, which form an intertwining tree of dependencies. They are: Conquer, Explore, Build, and Discovery.

Finally, Alpha Centauri is not a desolate star system. There is life on the planet, in the form of alien fungus that litters the ground and strange creatures such as mindworms. Initially hostile to all factions, this form of life holds it's own secrets and effects on the world at large.
