Utopia: The Creation of a Nation takes the Sim City gameplay concept and adds a military element to it. The game is set in the future, where your job is Colony Administrator for a new settlement on a planet. Your aim is to provide the highest Quality of Life rating for the colonists.
You achieve this by ensuring there's enough life support, power, housing, employment, police and entertainment for the citizens. However, you'll also face random events like solar eclipses that can affect your progress and a hostile alien race in many scenarios. You must balance civilian and military research to keep your colony safe.
As Colony Administrator, you need to manage resources carefully. You build tanks, spaceships, and gather intelligence to prepare for any threats. A strong colony is essential before the aliens arrive, but you'll face a bigger challenge once they do. Your goal is to achieve a Quality of Life rating of 80% or higher with no outside threat.
