Million on Mars — a blockchain-based colonizer simulator
Young (forget the numbers, you’re always young!) colonizers, today we will tell you about the game that prepares future generations for life on the red planet.
Million on Mars — city-building MMO game unlike any other.
Typically, games have a standard structure, challenging players to survive in order to earn points. Million on Mars provides players with their own plot of Martian terrain (each plot is 40 acres in size) and features a stunningly realistic interactive engine based on science.
Let’s figure out how to start exploring the red sands of Mars!
Develop strategies for surviving on Mars
On the Red Planet, you can build your own rovers and buildings using NFT blueprints, collect trash, plant crops, filter water, and earn DUSK (DUSK is an in-game token) or buy everything you need from other players!
Million on Mars is the most realistic city-building MMO on Mars with a rich, player-driven economy.
The main goal of the game is a thriving colony with a population of one million people.
The name of the game comes from Elon Musk’s passing phrase after someone asked him the question, “How many people must there be on Mars for the planet to be self-sufficient?” He replied, “I don’t know, maybe about a million people.” Thus, the name of the game goes back to this phrase.
A Just Community of Settlements and Habitats
Players can now invest in land by claiming 40-acre plots on Mars, for which they get the exact latitude and longitude. You will also receive a digital heightmaps for that location using actual NASA HiRISE project data. If you buy it, you will fully own the plot. Once purchased, you can begin installing greenhouses, solar panels, smelters, mining rigs, and rovers on your land to build and establish a settlement.
Another option for getting land is to play the game. After about 30 days, just by playing, you can earn yourself a land plot.
The developers claim that this is what sets them apart from many other cryptogames, which treat the land as digital slavery.
With the widest range of landowner options, the game is open to everyone, making it a fair community.
Red Planet settlers have the option to create habitats on Mars (the most complex crafting chain). Habitats allow players to act as landlords for other players, and by owning three habitats, players can establish a settlement on Mars. With this, they can become a guild of sorts.
The developers have a whole roadmap of features for complex social styles of play.
10,000 NFT Martizen on Mars
In the game you can become the owner of one of 10,000 unique NFT Martizen, which are loaded with in-game utilities and more.
So far, 4,000 of them have been sold out in a pre-sale exclusively for Million on Mars players. These 18 characters, each with their own visual stats and rarity system, will play a huge role in gameplay.

What makes this collection even more exciting is that it is linked to a fiction novel “Buffalo Commons” by CEO and founder Keri Waters. It is the design of the world in which the stories and characters of the game are interwoven.
NFT brings brand new utilities to the game. One useful feature is that Martizen can be inserted into Habitat buildings and help automate certain aspects of managing large settlements, such as energy and water replenishment. They will be something like an assistant lieutenant for automation.
Another benefit to the game is that Martizens will provide a positive effect for the profession system.
The game has 10 different professions that allow players to increase their level and skills.
As you create a settlement, both players and Martizen can earn experience points, which makes the game very similar to a MMORPG.
What awaits “Million on Mars”?
Next in the plan is a Rover-based PvP mode. This time it won’t be a dystopia-style battle — you’ll be in for some very serious competition. In PvP mode, robots will fight in arenas to resolve disputes over access to resources, including one vs. one and three vs. three.
“There are some revolutionary things waiting for you very soon,” says the game’s creator. “We’ll probably innovate some native iOS and Android apps that don’t have directly connected cryptocurrency features, but can stay connected to your settlement. Our virtual economy is very sustainable.”
Bethke (project head) and his team are passionate about creating blueprints. Essentially, this will give players the ability to build solar panels and build mining rigs to sell goods to other players or keep items for themselves, all of which will fuel the Million on Mars economy.
The future of Mars colonization begins here
Million on Mars is an incredibly detailed and immersive MMO game about building cities. It brings the average person closer than ever to life on the Red Planet. The project is very interesting and addictive. Impressive attention to detail, and the opportunity to play for free is quite captivating.
