About

Last Seedship

Features
Read full description

Earth is ash. The Ark carries what remains of humanity into the dark, and the Hunters are following every signal you leave behind. Last Seedship is a single-player sci-fi survival strategy game. Command the Ark, manage a finite population and failing resources, and establish colonies before the ship is finally lost. EVERY CYCLE HAS A COST Food and power fall as time advances. Balance crew, fuel, metal, hull, morale, FTL charge, and the trace that leads the Hunters to you. Prolonged shortages raise the risk of mutiny. You can suppress an uprising, but Martial Law extracts a brutal price. CHOOSE THE RISK Mine asteroid fields, harvest alien environments, salvage silent wrecks, hide inside dense nebulae, and decide when one more operation is worth the danger. Every action advances time and can cost resources, morale, hull, or lives. OUTRUN THE HUNTERS Charge the FTL drive and choose routes across a connected starmap. Longer jumps cost more fuel and leave a stronger trace. Wait too long and each Hunter contact becomes more destructive. An emergency jump may save the Ark—or break it. LEAVE A HUMAN LEGACY Establish Silent, Ice, Hidden Valley, Floating, Tech Cult, and Drifter colonies. Each world demands different resources and colonists. The Ark may be doomed, but the settlements you leave behind can secure humanity’s future. SHARE THE MAP Every journey creates a new star network from a numeric universe seed. Retry the same map or share its seed with another commander. Events and risks can still unfold differently. FEATURES • Tactical resource and pursuit management • Seven procedural star-system types • Six colony types with different costs and Survival Scores • Seeded starmaps and local results • Optional guided tutorial • English, German, Polish, Belarusian, Russian, and Japanese • Atmospheric ambient music and telemetry visuals • No ads and no subscription Begin with a seven-day trial of the complete game. Continue permanently with one optional one-time unlock. The Ark cannot survive forever. Humanity still can.
