Assemble robots and build transport networks in this delightful blend of construction and puzzling.
Mars First Logistics is one of those beautifully singular ideas that reminds you why Steam is ultimately a good thing. Shape Shop’s painterly, open-ended rover sim is all about constructing kooky robotic vehicles through a LEGO-like building system, used to solve logistical puzzles scattered around the Red Planet.
Arriving into Steam early access back in 2023, Mars First Logistics quickly garnered itself an overwhelmingly positive Steam rating. Since then, Shape Shop has quietly polished MFL’s solar panels and tinkered with its wiry innards, culminating in a 1.0 launch that brings a bunch of new features to aid your Martian endeavours.
Shape Shop headlines its 1.0 update with ten new contracts (i.e. missions) designed to test your rover-construction skills. According to Shape Shop, these contracts „have more of a puzzle focus“ than the more creative or logistical objectives introduced across the early access period, placing greater emphasis on „figuring out how to use the tools you’ve already unlocked.
