Trappist

Trappist is a story-driven colony builder with resource management, set 40.7 light-years from Earth in the Trappist-1 solar system. On arrival you control the Ark, a large spaceship that doubles as a movable colony and trading hub for your exploration.

You fly through the system and survey each planet to find the best spots for colonies, building settlements on planets and moons that each have distinct resources and buildings. Cargo ships carry extracted resources to manufacturing and population centers, and you can set up automated trade routes for stable production chains, while the Ark serves either as a mobile colony or a fixed central hub.

The game is built to be relaxing and respectful of your time, with meaningful progress even in short sessions and no money or road placement to distract from base building. It offers 10 to 15 hours of story across six colony sites, more than 50 buildings, automated trade, and a New Game Plus, all woven together with storylets about the true purpose of Trappist-1.
