The Crust Raises Humanity to New Heights in PC Early Access Release

Publisher Crytivo and developer VEOM Studio have released their lunar colony builder, The Crust, in Early Access on PC. With a focus on exploration and discovery, the game strives to establish humanity’s lunar habitat while uncovering hidden secrets.

After five years of development and a successful Kickstarter campaign, The Crust is challenging new directors to build and manage a lunar colony that is both above and below the Moon’s surface. Running parallel to the effort is a compelling story full of urgency. Critical decisions will impact humanity’s survival and the exploration of the Moon.

To create lunar colony sustainability, players will need to manage intricate resource systems by balancing extraction, processing of materials, and automation of systems. Build a corporation through automation of the lunar factory. Achieve maximum efficiency using conveyors, transportation logistics, and personnel operations.

Build a space platform and trade resources. Influence Earth’s economy and manipulate markets for maximum profits. Invest in large-scale projects.

Explore the Moon’s surface. Lead expeditions to uncover mysteries, explore remote objects, discover abandoned structures, and find unique geological formations.

Tech trees allow for strategic choices in the lunar colony’s growth. Balance survival needs and technological advancements. Shape the fate of humanity and the success of the lunar corporation.
