28 November 2024 - The upcoming park management sim Mars Attracts invites players to take part in an Alpha playtest starting on December 4th 2024.
Those interested can sign up via www.MarsAttracts.com to be among the first to get a hands on preview of the theme park management sim set in the iconic Mars Attacks™ universe.
The Alpha playtest provides the very first opportunity for players to get their hands on the game, which includes diverse environments above and below the Martian surface, a colorful range of human enclosures, and a research system where players perform experiments on their human captives to unlock bigger and better amenities for their park.
Developers Outlier are keen to integrate feedback and have fans contribute to the direction of Mars Attracts ahead of an Early Access release next year.
