Ack ack ack ack ack ack ack ack ack ack ack ack ack…ack. Ack ack. Ack ack ack. Ack ack, ack ack ack ack ack ack ack, ack – ack. Ack ack ack ack ack. Ack ack ack ack, ack ack, ack ack ack ack ack, ack ack ack. Ack.
Now that I’ve got that joke out of my system, here’s a an unusual game: the folk at Outlier have announced a new game based on the cult classic movie Mars Attacks.
Upon hearing this you’d probably imagine a variety of genres: maybe a shooter where you battle the comedically odd Martians? Or maybe something along the likes of Destroy All Humans, which itself draws inspiration from Mars Attacks? No, Outlier has chosen something odder, something crazier: a theme park management game.
“Mars Attracts is a theme park management game set on Mars,” reads the official blurb, “Play as the devious Martians from the cult-classic universe of Mars Attacks™ and build your amusement park empire, abducting humans from across history to display in customizable enclosures for the entertainment of curious Martian guests. Study humanity in their natural habitat, or subject them to whatever twisted experiments you can imagine!”
The game’s official Steam page talks about being able to abduct humans from across numerous historical periods, such as ancient Rome and the Wild West.
The game will launch into Early Access next year with the team promising that “The Early Access version features many hours of content and all of the game’s base systems, including construction, financial and staff management, human abductions, rides and amenities, guest happiness, multiple maps, and more.”
It’s a pretty weird premise, but honestly…I’m kind here for it. Roll on 2025.
