Station 21 - Space Station Simulator Reviews

eveything is bad bad ani, controls, the time, grafics baaaaaaaaaaaddddd

Ugh. Looked like it had promise - some kind of updated, re-imagined Project: Space Station. Nope. 100% garbage. Don't waste your money. I've requested a refund.

Its a good game but realy it should still be early acssess as there are a few Bugs and dose not feel like a full game and a new tuturial would deffently benifit the game

well i remember when it was a game you had to buy and i did so ,after a while it came free to play , its dont even worth as free to play game .

At the moment of 0.3.5 there is nothing... no crew managment, no system building... just moduls ontop of moduls. No real gameplay bejond building. There are better Games for this out there.

I would love to recommend this game. I really really would but at this point there is a lot of issues, some of them can be excused due to the Early Access stage. I'll go into it more below. In the good side I'll say that the idea is wonderful. I love space and managing a space station is a great way to zone out. Unfortunately that is pretty much the only thing I can say at this point. Despite the devs saying it's fixed on the forums last year you still can not stop the blaringly loud music. The tutorial won't even trigger for me despite having it very clearly ticked on the main screen. This led to me having absolutely no idea on how to resupply my station. Your crew sort of randomly meander around the station once you do have them even if they do have a job and somehow the science still gets done. All in all the game is VERY early alpha. If you're prepared to wait until past the refund period then I'd say wait for quite a few updates.

Pros: - Different than the shovelware that floods Steam. - Actually pretty nice system, albeit low on features. - No micromanaging present in most other simulators. Relaxing. Cons: - Not as many features as could be possible in the future. Again, it's Early Access and I hope more stuff gets added. - No options system, cannot adjust resolution or game settings. Not that it matters, since you can run this game on a microwave. - No fullscreen windowed option. - LOCKED AT 30 FPS. Possible bugs: - Science module can't be adjusted after setting research. Maybe intentional, maybe not. - Scientist "people" disappear after the first night. - Money doesn't actually update, making it impossible to actually get money in Career mode. - For some reason the communication module doesn't show up on Creative mode. - NO POWER icon shows up even with proper power. Doesn't charge the power banks. Other noteworthy items: - Low on features, not many modules. I blame Early Access. - Nothing really risk causing besides research failures and loans. As long as you make enough to net a profit you can play the waiting game to increase your station size. - Zooming out is with right click + scroll, which is pretty weird. - Zooming out makes the stars scale out making the pattern very visible. I actually thought it was a grid system until I realized it was just the really big stars showing with the smaller ones disappearing. I'd recommend making a really really big star texture and repeating it less. - There's a LOT of space to build a big station, assuming you can actually make it. - I don't believe there's a way to deconstruct a module for better layout later on. Overall: 3/10. Score will increase as more stuff gets added and more replayability. I'll mark it recommended because lots of work went into this.

You construct a space station, fill it with crew and modules, try to make money and expand your space station. After 15 minutes, you have pretty much seen everything. At that point all you are doing is expanding your space station. It gets meaningless because there are some significant bugs which the developer has failed to address. Not worth purchasing at this time.
