As a colony builder, your goal is to establish a fully operational colony on a new planet. To achieve this, you must gather resources such as food, wood, and stone to construct new buildings. You can monitor your resources in the bottom right corner of the screen. To begin, build a stone mine and a woodcutting center by selecting their images in the bottom left corner, and then placing them on an open space touching the ground. Next, construct houses to increase the population and farms to increase food production. Monitor your resources closely to ensure the colony's survival and happiness.
