Game Systems
Build a settlement. Then leave it behind.
Pax Autocratica is publicly framed as a colony sim + FPS roguelite with base building, citizen management, production, research, soldiers, expeditions, and first-person battles. The interesting part is the handoff: what happens in the settlement shapes what you can bring into the field.
This guide treats those pillars as connected questions, not a wall of isolated mechanics. Read the overview, follow the opening route, and use the official links when you need the latest word.
01
Colony
Citizens, work, food, supplies, and the settlement that keeps every run moving.
02
Production
Gathering, hauling, manufacturing, research, and the flow between them.
03
Expeditions
A first-person outing where preparation in the colony meets hostile territory.
04
Combat
Roguelite pressure, soldiers, weapons, and the questions still worth checking.

FAQ
Before you head into the field
Short answers for the questions that usually decide where a new reader should begin.
What kind of game is Pax Autocratica?
Its public store description presents a colony sim and FPS roguelite hybrid with base building, citizen management, production, research, soldiers, expeditions, and first-person battles.
Is this the official website?
No. This is an independent fan-made guide. Multiverse is the developer and publisher; official links are listed at the bottom of the page.
Where should a new player start?
Open the Beginner Guide. It gives you a sensible order for the opening questions without claiming a perfect build or a tested route.
Why are some answers cautious?
Pax Autocratica is in Early Access. Broad game pillars are easier to confirm than exact layouts, ratios, or late-game optimization.
