About

Autonauts, released in 2019, invites players to colonize uninhabited planets in a unique blend of casual, indie, and simulation genres. Starting from scratch, you’ll gather resources and build an empire of robots programmed to automate various tasks, progressing through the technological ages. This emphasis on automation and creativity sets Autonauts apart in the gaming landscape, offering a relaxing yet engaging experience.

In terms of PC performance, Autonauts is relatively accessible and won’t require cutting-edge hardware. To run the game smoothly at decent FPS, a minimum entry-level GPU with a score around 3302 will suffice, along with a CPU score of at least 6299. With 8 GB of RAM, players can enjoy crisp graphics settings that complement the game’s charming aesthetic, while still providing fluid gameplay without significant strain on mid-tier hardware.

If you appreciate simulation games that leverage creativity and automation, Autonauts is worth considering, given its 71/100 rating. The game’s gentle learning curve and engaging mechanics make it an enjoyable experience for fans of the genre, creating a rewarding sense of accomplishment as you build and expand your robotic empire.

Performance profile

October 2019 release. Autonauts was built around the GTX 10-series / RX Vega era. Current-gen mid-range cards (RTX 4060 / RX 7600) are overkill at 1080p and handle 1440p Ultra comfortably.

Simulation titles like Autonauts are heavily CPU-dependent — physics, AI and world state dominate the frame budget. Prioritise a CPU with strong single-thread performance and fast RAM over raw GPU power.

Entry-level hardware target. A GTX 1650 or RX 6500 XT reaches 60 FPS at 1080p Medium in Autonauts; an RTX 4060 comfortably sustains 1440p Ultra. 4K Ultra 60 FPS needs an RTX 4070 or better.

Storyline

Fresh from your spaceship you must harvest stick and stone and begin your colonization efforts. Create rudimentary crafting items from blueprints and slowly build a number of workerbots to aid in your efforts. Teach and shape their artificial intelligence with a visual programming language, then instruct them to begin the formation of your colony. Expand further with the creation of colonists; beings that require your assistance to survive. Push your workerbots further by introducing fishing, cooking, housing, and tailoring and help the colonists into a state of transcendence.
