About this game
Step into the gritty 1960s and prepare to command, rebuild, and defend your own strategic military outpost in Border Base, a thrilling colony-sim, base-building, and grand strategy hybrid. Inspired by genre-defining hits like RimWorld and Oxygen Not Included, Border Base thrusts you into a dynamic, war-ravaged region that desperately needs your leadership.
From the very start, Border Base breaks away from traditional base-building games—forget the quiet, safe corners of a map. Here, international convoys and trucks rumble straight through your territory, placing you at the center of geopolitical tension. Every decision you make ripples outward, impacting not only your base but the fate of nations around you.
Experience Border Base firsthand! A playable demo is available now on Steam. Dive into the action, explore core mechanics, and see why this game deserves your support.
Detailed Base Construction: Build and upgrade key facilities such as barracks, armories, research labs, and defensive structures to fortify your base against threats.
Recruit and Manage Personnel: Recruit specialized soldiers, workers, and technicians, each playing crucial roles in defending and maintaining your Border Base.
Robust Transportation Networks: Lay down roads, set truck routes, and optimize cargo logistics. Maximize your efficiency and turn every truck and bus into a vital asset.
Strategic Base Expansion: Cultivate farmland, establish power plants, and develop advanced technologies to strengthen your position. Expand your influence by diplomacy or domination.
Combat and Defence: Deploy your forces wisely in tactical battles against enemy attacks, leveraging both defensive positions and aggressive strategies to ensure victory.
Resource Management: Mine essential resources, grow farms for food production, and establish sustainable supply chains to keep your outpost thriving.
Flexible Work Scheduling: Control work schedules and assign tasks strategically to ensure productivity and morale remain high.
Inspired by the best: We’ve taken the compelling simulation depth of RimWorld, the resource management intricacies of Oxygen Not Included, and combined them with unique border-control mechanics, resulting in an entirely fresh strategic experience.
