The upcoming park management sim Mars Attracts has just released a playable demo of the game on Steam. The demo release coincided with the release of an all-new trailer featuring an in-depth look at the gameplay, which sees the player building whacky rides, managing the needs of fickle Martian guests, and abducting humans to serve as the star attractions. This latest trailer reveals all new experiments and amenities for messing with the unfortunate human captives.

In the demo, players will be able to push their humans to the limits of sanity in the name of Martian science, and get a real taste for the management systems and darkly mischievous gameplay that Mars Attracts has to offer. Throughout the development journey, Outlier has encouraged fans to contribute to the direction of Mars Attracts - and the demo is just the latest step in this journey, ahead of an Early Access release later this year.




About Mars Attracts
Mars Attracts is a theme park management sim where you play as the aliens from Mars Attacks. Players will build rides, hire and train staff, manage guest needs, and most importantly - abduct humans from across history to serve as the star attractions!

Mars Attracts combines the rich systems and in-depth management simulations familiar to fans of games like Roller Coaster Tycoon, Theme Hospital and Zoo Tycoon with the retro futuristic, B-movie inspired style and darkly mischievous humor of this beloved IP.

Mars Attracts was revealed in August 2024 with a first trailer at Gamescom which racked up over 1 million views on YouTube. The game will be released on Steam in Early Access later this year.

This is more like a Rollercoaster Tycoon meets aliens game I think. Graphically it kinda looks like made for mobile, and then you see the UI and its scaled for PC resolutions. Weird, comes to mind. But maybe thats the whole point :)

It made me think of Theme Hospital to be honest.
