* ColonyShip: The Ark, the large ship that brings the colonists to Trappist-1 is a colony ship that can also double as an orbital manufacturing platform. Despite the name it doesn't qualify as TheArk since there's no indication that anything bad happened to Earth.

* NewGamePlus: Beating the game allows you to save a file containing the current condition of the Ark (with the caveat that it must have enough cryo pods for all humans currently on board), including all facilities built on it and all resources in storage. You can then start a new game using this version of the Ark instead of the default one. This allows for custom starts to do challenge runs such as starting with incredibly low resources or having a run where you only have robots and no humans.

* NonEntityGeneral: The player is implied to be a specific individual in charge of managing the colony, but it not represented in game. It's implied that they (and their advisors) are living on the Ark and were actually woken from cryo sleep at the start of the game despite the Ark not having any active population at the time.

Humanity has dispatched a colony mission aboard a large ship called The Ark to the nearby star [[UsefulNotes/LocalStars Trappist-1]]. During the game you build up to six different colonies in different locations, each location has different resources and supply requirements requiring the player to establish trade routes between them if the colony is to thrive.

!!The games provide examples of:
* ArtisticLicenseSpace: The system based on the real life Trappist-1 system although it has a number of inaccuracies in the name of gameplay. Notably Trappist-1h is described as a small gas giant which isn't really consistent with current observations. Additionally it has two quite large moons which is also unlikely (although not impossible).
* CasualInterplanetaryTravel: Partly justified in that the small size of the Trappist-1 system compared to Sol would make travel between planets a lot faster. However interplanetary travel is still easier and faster than it would be in real life.
* EasyLogistics: Cargo Vessels require fuel for their construction but once they have been built they require no fuel or maintenance.
* FutureFoodIsArtificial: Health Drinks are the primary food item for space colonies and a secondary food item for colonies on habitable worlds. These drinks are made in algae farms using water and crude oil.
* HiveMind: [[spoiler:The oil deposits at Graveyard contain bacterium that link together to form a group intelligence, the scientists dub then the Big Oil Brain or Bob for short. They are initially discovered due to turning people into goo but they were mostly upset about being taken from their home by humans pumping oil.

* SingleBiomePlanet: All of the planets in the game including a desert planet, a water planet and a jungle planet.
* ShapedLikeItself: The desert planet is called Desert Planet. According to the text the colonists couldn't agree on whether to call it Literature/{{Dune}} or Arrakis so it ended up getting called Desert Planet as a compromise.
* {{Shoutout}}: The initial food for your colonists is potatoes, the dialog for this references both ''Literature/TheMartian'' and ''Literature/TheLordOfTheRings''
