Take On Mars places you in the seat of a Rover Operator, allowing you to control the various, fully simulated mobile Rovers and stationary Landers. With this scientific arsenal at your disposal, you will work your way through the numerous Science Missions in each location, unlocking the secrets of Mars' distant past.
Once you get the hang of the core concept (which Bohemia lacks to explain for most of the time), you’ll start to enjoy this space sim that wants you to explore the red planet.
Highly entertaining, in its own unique way. [Issue#139, p.117]
Complexity of gameplay mechanics and really decent immersion make up for the game’s repetitiveness and very slow pace. Despite its flaws I spent almost 20 hours with Take On Mars and didn’t even notice when all that time flew by. [04/2017, p.43]
A varied, atmospheric space simulator with beautiful Martian sunsets, challenging survival, and frustrating controls.
Take on Mars is a great space simulation, but also a mess filled with bugs.
The unfinished product is pulled back to the ground not only by its technical issues, but also the inconsistency or the fuzziness of the original concept. The game playability save its robotic probes and tremendous modularity.
Unfinished product is grounded not only by its technical errors, but also by the inconsistency and diluted original concept. The honor of the game is saved by the robotic probes and tremendous modularity. [Issue#274]
