The Colonists is a strategy game developed by Codebyfire. It is available on Nintendo Switch and is a full version game. The game is inspired by classic titles like The Settlers and the Anno series. In this game, you control a team of robots responsible for settling a newly-discovered planet and preparing it for human inhabitants.

The game progresses from the Stone Age to the Space Age as you build your colony's infrastructure by constructing complex road, boat, train, and drone transport systems. You will have to harvest natural resources, set up farming and food production, sculpt the terrain to optimize your networks, conquer other settlements, or trade with new allies. The Colonists offers a single-player campaign, a free-play mode, competitive multiplayer, and co-op. The game provides a wide range of options to explore, research, manage, tweak and refine to your heart's content.
