Mars Attracts Review Roundup - "So much better than it has a right to be"

We'd like to say a huge thankyou to everyone who has bought (and reviewed) Mars Attracts this week!

If you're enjoying the game and haven't already, PLEASE leave a Steam review 🙏 They're incredibly important for getting the word out. If you're not enjoying the game, drop us a nice private message! 😅

Press Reviews

  • PCGamer: "This theme park sim based on a 30-year-old sci-fi movie is so much better than it has a right to be"

  • TheGamer: "Mars Attracts Is One Of My Favourite Surprises Of The Year"

  • TryHardGuides: "manages to carve out a space for itself with charm, humor, and just the right amount of grotesque absurdity"

  • Kotaku: "It’s the weirdest theme park builder I’ve played in a long time, but also a fantastic spin on the genre that sci-fi fans and Mars Attacks lovers will enjoy for hours and hours"

An interesting theme across most of the press reviews is how surprising it is that the game is good 😂

So far we have been delighted with the critical reception to our weird little management game, and we're currently in the process of collating all of the bug reports, suggestions, and bits of feedback to integrate into the development roadmap. If you have any ideas for the game, let us know on the Steam discussion forum or the game's Discord - we'd love to hear what you think!

Thanks again for you support, it means the world to us.

Love,

Paul & the Outlier team
