Publisher Focus Entertainment and developer Broken Arms Games have unveiled their latest project, the solarpunk management game BioEden. Set to launch on PC via Steam on September 3, the game will also make its way to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and Switch 2 in the future. For those eager to dive in early, a demo is currently available for PC users.
Game Overview
In BioEden, players assume the role of a Keeper, embarking on a cozy management adventure aimed at revitalizing a world in need of healing. The game invites you to craft the ideal biome for a variety of enchanting animal species, utilizing your creativity and resourcefulness to restore ecosystems one step at a time.
As you enter this vibrant realm, your mission begins with the discovery of debris sites scattered throughout the landscape. These remnants serve as the foundation for your journey. By recycling these materials, you can construct a self-sustaining network of structures designed to bring extinct animals back to life. Your initial focus will be on establishing a solar energy system to generate electricity and a water system to distribute it across your creations. However, each addition to your ecosystem requires careful planning, as it consumes resources and can inadvertently increase pollution levels. Striking a balance between innovation, exploration, and restraint is essential to fulfill your mission.
Embrace Renewal
In this world, your actions can lead to significant change. You will have the opportunity to recycle buildings that have outlived their usefulness, purify polluted lakes and rivers, and reclaim forgotten ruins. As you restore the soil, you will witness the gradual return of life to a landscape that had nearly lost hope. Your efforts will transform this barren planet into a flourishing eden, leaving no trace of your presence behind.
Within your dome, life is poised to make a comeback. You will welcome back a diverse array of extraordinary species, each with unique requirements. Gathering DNA samples and placing cocoons will be part of your responsibilities, as you carefully manage the conditions necessary for each creature’s comfort, including temperature, humidity, and appropriate vegetation. By meeting their needs, you will watch these gentle beings thrive once more.
Your Guild, Your Journey
The Cosmic Collective comprises five distinct Guilds, each characterized by its own identity, abilities, and archetype. While united by a common goal of planetary healing, each Guild pursues its own ambitions shaped by core values. Your choice of Guild will influence your approach to the mission, with differing methods and philosophies. Choose wisely, as your path will define your journey.
Relax and Discover
BioEden encourages players to take their time, free from the pressures of fail states or time constraints. Instead, you will experience the gentle allure of discovery and the profound satisfaction that comes from witnessing the transformation of your world through thoughtful choices. Let the soothing sounds of nature envelop you as you nurture, explore, and watch your planet gradually come back to life.
