The Fermi Paradox is a Science Fiction Simulation Game developed by Anomaly Games, with an original soundtrack by Mona Mur. The game went into early access in 2021, and is under ongoing development.The gameplay revolves around guiding and nurturing up to 10 alien civilizations as they grow and develop while gathering Synthesis, which is effectively the game's currency. You will frequently be asked to make a choice between three options that will influence a civilization's development, one which is beneficial to that civilization but costs Synthesis, one which won't be particularly beneficial but won't be particularly detrimental either and doesn't cost any Synthesis, or one which will be actively detrimental to the civilization but in return will grant you Synthesis which you can potentially use to prevent bigger disasters later on. As the "galactic gardener", your ultimate goal is to overcome The Fermi Paradox, although whether this results in galactic unity or a galaxy-wide crisis depends entirely on you.Important choices will frequently come in the form of a Random Event, with each of these events containing a quote from a work, creator, or other notable figure, either from actual human history or a made up quote from the history of an alien species (and there are quite a large variety of these events). It is currently available for PC. | |

Multiple Endings | |
| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: The ultimate fate of all the civilizations in the galaxy depends on the player, how much Synthesis they have, the current state of every civilization, and how lucky they are. Whether they die without knowing others like them exist, wage interstellar war or anything in between, it's all up to you... | |

Resources Management Gameplay: Part of the game's core gameplay involves making sure a civilization doesn't run out of resources, in addition to making sure they don't become too much of a Dystopia (if you're aiming for the good ending that is), the amount of casualties caused by wars and disasters is minimized, they're reproducing at a healthy rate, and that they're on track to gaining more advanced technology soon. | |

A.I. Is a Crapshoot | |
| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_420c50b7 | comment |
A.I. Is a Crapshoot: Zig-Zagged. There are plenty of events which have artificial intelligence screwing things up, but they are just as often beneficial. However, even in a playthrough where A.I has been almost entirely helpful, if the game's final choice goes badly, it's possible for the entire galaxy to become unwitting slaves to a malevolent A.I. | |

Agony Beam | |
| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_43fe061e | comment |
Agony Beam: One event involves a civilization developing a version of one of these, with how widespread it becomes depending on the player. In some versions it is used frequently, in other versions it is saved for the worst of the worst criminals, but the least detrimental option has the device only capable of being used on consenting participants, meaning it's only ever used for extremely kinky activities. | |

| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_5979acea | comment |
Fragile Speedster: One event has a civilization develop a series of small fighter spaceships capable of moving MUCH faster than anything else they have in their army. The most beneficial version of the event has the ships leaving a unique signature in their wake which makes them easy to track, meaning that war is not made more devastating, but another version of the event has them absolutely dominate the battlefield. | |

Take That! | |
| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: A parody of The Simpsons called "The Simpletons" is described in the game as having gotten very boring and stale, frequently using celebrity-glorifying cameos and making references devoid of humor. It being permanently is considered the best possible option by the game, whereas it continuing forever and being made mandatory to watch is considered a cultural descent into decadence. | |

The Ark | |
| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_b5b4b24e | comment |
The Ark: One event has a civilization construct a spaceship (or possibly a whole fleet of spaceships) to transport some of them off of their planet when they start to fear that a conflict at their current tech level could result in the death of all of them if they stay where they are. | |

Cockroaches Will Rule the Earth | |
| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_b6034ac5 | comment |
Cockroaches Will Rule the Earth: Once humanity dies out, it's possible for a more primitive, non-sapient species to evolve intelligence and become the new dominant species thousands of years later. This can also happen to alien civilizations with their animals. | |

Holy City | |
| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_be009544 | comment |
Holy City: One can develop in a certain event. In some versions of the event it leads to enlightenment for the civilization that event applies to, but in another a dangerous cult appears which begins worshiping the city itself rather than what it is associated with, driving people away and having no positive effects on the civilization whatsoever. | |

Octopoid Aliens | |
| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_c930d83a | comment |
Octopoid Aliens: The ocean-dwelling Frenner are technically squids, at least according to the game's description, but their numerous tentacles resemble octupi much more. | |

The End of the World as We Know It | |
| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_d71d51fd | comment |
The End of the World as We Know It: An apocalypse can occur in quite a large variety of ways, such as a gigantic asteroid smashing into the planet, or said planet being completely exhausted of resources and rendered uninhabitable by the devastation of the ensuing conflict, not to mention global warming boiling the ocean or a black hole opening and swallowing everything...the list goes on and on. | |

Playful Hacker | |
| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_dded28f2 | comment |
Playful Hacker: One variation of the hacking event mentioned earlier involves the hackers turning out to be benevolent, using their ability to hack into the government's databases to expose injustices to the world and forcing the government to make changes for the better. | |

Speculative Fiction LGBT | |
| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_df6a6ad3 | comment |
Speculative Fiction LGBT: One particular event has a civilization developing technology that allows them to effectively change their sex at will, allowing for a much wider range of gender expression. How accepted this is depends on the player, with the best possible option being for it to be widely accepted and the worst possible option is for it to be shot down immediately by politicians who want to preserve the old ways. | |

Individualism vs. Collectivism | |
| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_e8d3858e | comment |
Individualism vs. Collectivism: A theme in this game, with the game tending to be on the side of collectivism most of the time. In one event, it is possible for a society to become fully collectivist, and the game treats this as a very good thing. | |

Aliens Steal Cable | |
| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_f0982bbf | comment |
Aliens Steal Cable: The radio signals sent out by a civilization can potentially be detected by other civilizations, proving to them that they aren't the only sapient beings in the galaxy and giving them a bit of an idea of that other civilization's culture...even if it happens to be woefully out of date. | |

Monster in the Ice | |
| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_f51f3f54 | comment |
Monster in the Ice: Another event has gigantic creatures from a primal era that were frozen in ice thawing out because of warming temperatures. They can potentially wreak devastating havoc, but if the player has enough Synthesis and is feeling merciful, these monsters can be domesticated as pets. | |

| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_f5c505db | comment |
The Cracker: One event has a group of hackers holding the files of a civilization's government ransom. While this event can end well, one particular outcome has this end in disaster, having the government end up handing over so much money to the greedy hackers that the entire economy is crippled. | |

| The Fermi Paradox (Video Game) / int_fb3b6acd | comment |
Bows Versus Crossbows: An event has a civilization discovering the potential of crossbows, and depending on the player's choice, they can either be much too inefficient to be used in armies, efficient but not efficient enough to replace bows, or so efficient that they completely replace the standard bow. | |
