## What is Astro Tycoon?

Grandpa Anselmo, the most stubborn prospector in the galaxy, has left you his mining company. Well, what's left of it: a ship called "La Urraca", a rusty drill and CHISPA, an AI with more opinions than bolts. Name your company and turn the scrap into an empire.

EXPLORE THE GALAXY 
Travel from Kepler to the icy moons of Titan, the storms of Neron and the mysterious Nebula. Every place has its own materials, dangers and markets.

UPGRADE YOUR SHIP 
Engine, hull, cargo hold, scanner… Every upgrade opens new routes. Level up, research technologies and build bases that work on their own.

TRADE SMART 
Every market pays differently and prices change. Sell where they pay the most, take urgent contracts and watch out for pirates.

ITEMS AND EXPEDITIONS 
Send out expeditions, find rare items and equip them on your ship. All items are earned by playing: they are never sold for real money or in loot boxes.

A STORY WITH HUMOR… AND A MYSTERY 
Read grandpa's logbook, follow CHISPA's missions and find out what that strange signal everyone calls "the Echo" really is.

EARN WHILE YOU'RE AWAY 
Your bases keep producing while you sleep. Come back and collect your earnings.
