Surviving Mars is a marvelous experience of city building, management, exploration and strategizing. Overall polish and good production values all around complete a deep and interesting package that will make genre enthusiasts and Mars fanatics very, very happy.
Surviving Mars shines with surprisingly deep gameplay and a complex economic system. Most of the time you are struggling to keep your fragile colony alive and provide your colonists with all they need. Always fighting for scarce ressources and against the harsh environment of the red planet.

I wasn't impressed with Surviving Mars at launch. In just two hours I found a lot of bugs and a mountain of features and systems that clearly needed a bit more time in the oven. When I saw it in a bundle with Aven Colony and Stellaris for 18 euro though I gave it another shot. And boy has this game grown. I immediately bought the season pass and with all the content the game is simply amazing. It already swallowed 30 hours of my time and I still feel haven't seen anything yet. A minor gripe - too bad the visuals are not nearly as sexy as the Tropico games, especially the UI looks cheap and old. I think it's a mistake for strategy/building game devs to underestimate visuals, it's what sells. But the rest of the game is phenomenal. The depth and complexity is absolutely spot on for my tastes, it's one of my favourite games of the last decade.

Чудесная игра. Очень атмосферная. Всё потрясающе проработано. Потенциал для многократного прохождения с различными настройками сложности и изменяемыми условиями - присутствует :)

A solid strategy game that may suffer slightly from being, as with the surface of Mars, a little too dry.
It is such a pity that Surviving Mars is infested by frustrating bugs, is at times unclear and has some resource balancing issues. Because, despite these problems, it is still a fun game, bursting with potential.
The depth of systems overseeing gameplay is commendable. It’s a shame though that few players will find enough patience to endure poorly balanced pace and experience Surviving Mars’ biggest strength – its inventive endgame. [05/2018, p.82]
No doubt about it: Surviving Mars is a good sci-fi city builder.
I eventually stopped playing after about 30 hours because the game was just too mind-numbingly boring to continue. I was also shocked that I had only played for 30 hours. It felt like at least twice that long.
Surviving Mars probablemente, por sus mecánicas, sea un juego relativamente fácil para aquellos avezados gestores. Sin embargo, para los que no lo somos (es un género que siempre se me ha dado mal), tiene una serie de mecánicas que hacen que la colonia vaya creciendo progresivamente, de modo que es relativamente fácil mantener controlada la situación, saber lo que hace falta y avanzar. No tiene una campaña como tal (como sí tiene Tropico, por ejemplo), pero tiene una variedad de historias que puedes escoger en cada partida (una cada vez) que le dan ese rollo de trama, junto con el desarrollo de la colonia desde el primer dron hasta el final. Me hubiera gustado que hubiera una mayor variedad de edificios que construir en la colonia y más tecnologías, incluso con los DLCs se acaban haciendo un poco escasos. Pero en general el juego está guay, te enfrenta a las hostilidades de Marte pero sin resultar abrumador.
Gráficamente el juego cumple, aunque no es ningún portento. La música es discreta, lo suficiente como para no llamar la atención y no aburrir, aunque no tan variada como podría ser. Y, al menos en mi experiencia, no me he encontrado con bugs (salvo que consideremos un bug la tendencia de la tierra a no ser plana aunque la aplanemos).
Por todo ello, sin duda Surviving Mars probablemente no sea el mejor exponente de su género, pero si resulta un juego muy entretenido y con la suficiente progresividad como para no ser abrumador. Un 6,5.

I've enjoyed the game quite a bit. It has great replay value as you can select a "Mystery" per new game that provides some extra story, tasks, goals or research options.
Pros:
+ Great graphics
+ Attention to many details
+ Fantastic soundtrack
+ Mars setting
+ Interesting story-like elements
+ Mod support, helping with a bunch of cons below
Cons:
- Difficult to micro-manage resources, colonists and drones
- Vanilla: slow gameplay, even on [>>]
- It appears the game runs on 60 FPS (smooth scrolling) but the moving drones start to "warp" after certain amount of objects in-game
- Vanilla: storage capacities are too low
- Vanilla: some products require factory operated by human
