I love the turn-based playstyle, and I'm learning so much from the Spacepedia as I play!

The "payload" minigames build in difficulty throughout the game, with each additional layer of difficulty introduced in such a way that makes it easy to remember (I never felt bombarded with too many choices or new things at once).
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
22 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
Produced by the British studio Auroch Digital, I liked the graphics of the game, mainly the many different models of vehicles and rockets, all detailed according to the real versions or projects, my only complaint is about the shadows, because some of them didn't look very good visually.
Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
10 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
As for the soundtrack, I was satisfied, I liked the music used and I think the sound effects, especially during the stages of the missions, matched the space exploration theme.
Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
9 of 300 sampled reviews raised it
With its minimalistic interface and style the game is it intuitive and easy to play.
