Item Description

Picture SimCity relocated to a hostile alien planet, with a war brewing just beyond the city limits. Utopia: The Creation of a Nation puts you in charge of a brand-new colony on a far-flung world, and your job title says it all: Colony Administrator, responsible for both the citizens' comfort and their survival.

The measure of success is the colony's Quality of Life rating. Raising it means keeping up with everything a settlement on another planet needs: life support, power, housing, jobs, police and entertainment, all in the right balance. The planet does not make it easy. Random events such as solar eclipses can knock out your solar panels at the worst moment, and every misstep shows up in how your colonists feel about your leadership.

Then there are the neighbors. Each scenario pits you against a hostile alien race, so a good mayor also has to be a good general. Research money must be split between civilian projects and weapons, intelligence work tells you what the enemy is up to, and eventually you are building tanks and spaceships to defend what you have built. Push past a strong economy and the final climb toward a top Quality of Life score only comes once the outside threat is gone, which gives each scenario a clear and satisfying arc from first dome to final victory.

Utopia began life on home computers under the Gremlin Graphics label, and this Super Nintendo version brings that thoughtful, slow-burn strategy to the couch with a controller in hand. It is a fine pick for strategy players who already know SimCity by heart and want the same city-building satisfaction with higher stakes and a science-fiction twist.

About the game

Utopia takes the Sim City gameplay concept and adds a military element to it. The game is set in the distant future, where your job is nothing less than Colony Administrator for a new settlement on some far-flung planet. Your aim is to provide the highest Quality of Life rating for the colonists. You do so by ensuring that there is enough life support, power, housing, employment, police and entertainment to keep the citizens of your colony happy. Hindering your goal are random events such as solar eclipses (which can render your solar panels inactive) and also a different, hostile alien race that inhabits the planets in the many scenarios at offer. Not only do you have to be a good mayor but you also have to be a good general. Resources must not only be attributed to civilian research but into weapons research, intelligence and the building of tanks and spaceships, if you wish to survive long enough to see your colony flourish into a metropolis. As a rule, you will have built a strong colony before the aliens come, but the final push towards a QOL of 80% or higher can only be achieved once there is no outside threat.
