About Maia

✦ AI summary

Maia is a space colony simulation where you burrow into an alien world's crust to build and manage a base while keeping your colonists alive in a toxic, hostile environment filled with earthquakes, storms, and deadly atmosphere. What sets it apart is its deeply simulated colonist AI, realistic physics for heat and airflow, procedurally generated massive mission areas, and the ability to switch into first-person mode to directly control your robots and explore the world you've built.

Maia is a colony building game set in the not-so-distant future. Your colonists make planetfall on a hostile world and you must ensure their survival and their safety, constructing their off-world habitat from almost nothing and sheltering them from a dangerous, often deadly environment.

What Steam players say

Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.

✦ AI summary

Maia is an abandoned early access project that players describe as incomplete and largely unplayable, with clunky mechanics, broken tutorials, and contradictory systems that prevent progress. While a few players appreciate its ambition and detailed world-building, the overwhelming consensus is that the game was never finished despite years of crowdfunding support, making it not worth purchasing.

Not recommended Jan 28, 2026
I bought this as soon as it hit steam and early access games were still in their infancy. I thought it looked so cool, and I was excited to participate in the development process.....now....I can't believe this is still available for purchase. What a disappointment. Game had promise, but never was finished and ended up being pretty much garbage. Super clunky. Don't buy.

The game is in a very bad/incomplete state. Supported the development by buying it during the crowdfunding many years ago, the dev never finished it. Once in a long while(years) the devs shows a sign of life.

Not really playable, can't even get through the tutorial, it's full of contradictory actions and nothing works right.

Its good but it may need some changes to make it better but other wise its very good and detailed
Recommended Sep 8, 2025
Not that easy, if people die, don't fret call some new ones. The developer is very responsive on questions on discord.

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
