β€ Unique Blend of Gameplay Genres
Galaxy Pass Station blends the bureaucratic document verification of Papers, Please with the station management and resource optimization of tycoon/simulation games like Startopia and Oxygen Not Included.
β€ Document Verification and Alien Bureaucracy
At the core of the gameplay, players must carefully inspect each arriving passenger's identification, comparing details like name, species, birthdate, and more against the information displayed on their documents. What sets this apart is the vast diversity of 15 unique alien species, each with their own distinct characteristics, requirements, and idiosyncrasies that players must remember. Players can choose to make this process more or less demanding by hiring staff to handle some of the verification, balancing efficiency with tight security.
β€ Space Station Management
In parallel, players construct and manage the various facilities, resources, and services required to keep the space station running smoothly and accommodating the needs of its diverse inhabitants. This includes building living quarters, entertainment venues, production facilities, and utilities like power, food, and waste management. Managing the station's layout, resource flows, and staff assignments becomes increasingly complex as the station grows, requiring strategic planning and optimization to balance the competing needs and preferences of the different alien species.
β€ Progression and Replayability
The game offers both a story-driven campaign mode as well as an open-ended endless mode, providing avenues for both narrative progression and sandbox-style replayability. Progression in both modes involves unlocking new technologies, facilities, and alien species through a robust research system, allowing players to customize and tailor their station's capabilities. Procedurally generated events and guest arrivals help to keep the gameplay fresh and unpredictable, even in the endless mode, consistently presenting players with new challenges and opportunities.
