Last night I randomly decided to fire up Aven Colony again. I haven’t played it in a while, and I wanted to check in on my space colony. “Checking in” turned into two hours of getting back into the flow and starting some more expansions of the settlement… And today I just dumped another two to three hours (so far) into adjusting to the growing pains of my colony, which now has a population of over a thousand.

Aven Colony is really fun as a SimCity type game, between the sci-fi setting and surprisingly little micromanagement needed. Many tasks are either automated to begin with or can be set to be in the rules for your colony. So even when things ramp up, like three threats coming in at the same time, the game pace is still mostly chill.

And I am very much reminded of how much of a time sink Aven Colony is. It’s fun, but twenty minutes becomes two hours before you know it.

I was starting to think it was impossible, but I just started another strategy game which has managed to pull me from the solitary grip of F1 Manager, and it's Aven Colony.

In Aven Colony, your job is to build a functioning space colony on a distant planet and keep the people happy while you deal with the challenges of the new planet's environment. (And make some discoveries, too, but I haven't gotten to that point yet.) The main thing I like is that a lot of the building and management processes are automated or integrated with other elements, so the game doesn't get bogged down in micromanagement. It's fun watching my little galactic outpost grow into a thriving city.

So, mit dem Abschluß der Karte Eden Crater ist auch die Kampagne von #AvenColony abgeschlossen. 😎

Anscheinend gibt es noch eine letzte Cutscene, welche die Story abschließt. Leider tut die bei mir nicht, warum auch immer. 🙄 Ich werde sie mir wohl auf YouTube anschauen.

Trotzdem, ich bestimme mal für mich, dass ich hiermit #AvenColony #durchgespielt habe.

Bei Cthulhu, es ist vollbracht. Auf "Valley of Death" sind alle Missionen abgeschlossen und ich habe die Karte gewonnen. 👍

Puh, ich muss sagen, dass sich die Mission auf der "Valley of Death" Karte etwas zieht. 😮‍💨

Ich dachte das nach dem Ausräuchern der Fanatiker Nester alles in trockenen Tüchern ist, aber jetzt soll ich noch 3 separate Siedlungen mit Raketenstellungen gründen....😳
