A Game for the Simulation of a Martian Base

In: On to Mars, Colonizing a New World, edited by Zubrin, RM, and Crossman, F. Apogee Books.
We would like to create a realistic game based on the ability to survive and to develop the activities of a Martian base. During the simulation, the astronauts have to explore the surface and find the resources they need to grow plants, to build new objects, to repair machines, to build new habitats and finally to improve the autonomy of the base. Meanwhile, they have to maintain the life support system, the energy system and the rover in good working order. We have tried to realize an educational game, taking into account the technological solutions that will be exploited on Mars.
We are still in the early stages of the development and the characteristics of the simulator have not been precisely defined. We propose to generalize the concept of object and the concept of transformer, in order to facilitate the definition of the scenarios and the extension of the game. A web site is devoted to the development of the game: http://msn.ifrance.com/salotti/jeumars.htm.
