Where to begin with this?!?!

The game is set on Mars in the year 3000, and you as a settler need to explore the surface and amass MD (mars dollars), which can when you amass enough be cashed out to you.

That is the simple explanation! But then the game can be played very simply or you can opt to build defenses and attack other settler’s homesteads to hopefully gain booty from them, join alliances (I am currently hoping to be accepted by an alliance of people from bobs forum) and capture settlements to govern.

Or there is the very simple answer of just mining volcanoes and checking out ruins and abandoned settlements and not bothering with upgrades and just amassing the dollars to cash out without treading on anyone’s toes and hoping others don’t plunder you for too much.

You begin each day with 250 moves (reset at 5am every day gmt) which don’t take an awful amount of time to get through, but I can say from experience that the game is very addictive and I am always disappointed when my moves are over.
But if you get bitten by the game you can become a subscriber and purchase more moves.

There is much more involved than I can detail here, missions and cards to collect, and if you get real lucky you could even find an ipod or some real dollars hidden!!

All I can really say is give it a try for a day or 2 and see if it is your cup of tea.
If you do decide to stay with it then there is a link on the cashout page to a wiki area that explains all you need to know, and they have a very useful forum on which you can even trade your finds!!
