"A deep management simulator where you build and maintain a colony with complex systems including reproduction and childcare, playable at your own pace."

Use the game's pause feature liberally to manage the complexity without time pressure—treat it as a strategic puzzle rather than a real-time action game.

About

With Biotech, colonists (and outsiders) can become pregnant and give birth. Pregnancy can begin naturally, or via technological means, and can be controlled by a variety of methods. Babies bring joy, but also challenges. Colonists’ hearts will melt when the baby coos and giggles in their arms. But it takes effort to keep a baby happy and healthy and loved - create a safe haven for them in a cozy pastel nursery where there is always warm milk, a comfortable crib, overflowing toy chests and kind caregivers.
