Power Grid: Outpost

Players manage energy companies on a newly colonized planet, buying power plants, shelters, and technologies to meet rapidly growing electricity demand. Turn by turn, players bid on and purchase plants, acquire resources, and extend their network between settlements while balancing income and expenses. A hiring and staffing mechanic lets players invest in permanent workers to avoid costly seasonal labor, creating an economic trade-off between short-term flexibility and long-term efficiency.
