The Spatials

It's a stupid little low risk low mental involvement game that's good to veg out to after a long day of work/chores/school/life, and it occupies that space very well in my opinion. The station building aspect is a nice little creative outlet, giving you enough freedom to build a pretty station while still having enough restrictions to feel like it matters what you do. The on world missions are a nice way to switch up the mood, again giving you just enough pressure to feel like you're accomplishing something without having a 'real' risk of failure. I also appreciated the humor and subtle jabs at the Star Trek franchise. Just a chill, fun time.

Works well on deck. Gameplay though i found it a bit boring and repetitive.

I really liked this game. Its not as complex as other games in the genre. Plus its a Star Trek parody and I love that.

Not a bad game, just pretty unpolished. You build a space station on some asteroid, plan out all the different rooms so that your peeps can easily find a path to fulfill their needs. Then you have the galaxy screen where you send away teams of five to battle with creeps. The combat is not ideal. In essence you move a group of 5 and tactically use their abilities to chip away at the enemy from afar or dive deep and spam the heal ability. You get stronger by leveling up your peeps through missions and by getting higher level loot drops from missions. If you try to advance too quickly you get tougher opponents and then you gotta go back and replay old missions on higher difficulties to get exp, better weapons in loot and also double or triple your resources from planets. Also the tutorial is not detailed enough, so you will need to figure out some things about room placement, the effect of decoration on object use. Developers claim that their next game Spatials Galactology is closely based on this game but upgraded a lot. Haven't had the chance to try it, so if you wanna buy this game, perhaps it's better to pay a bit more for the potentially superior experience.

[h3] The fact of the matter is that I totally suck at games like this - except for THIS game. [/h3] [b] GRAPHICS [/b] First thing that catches your eye is the graphics, colorful and cute, especially the little humanz with 2 black dots for eyes and no mouth (yes, this is why I bought this game) It's well-thought, neat and simple - it is unlikely for you to notice the 'copy & paste' grass or tiles while you play unless you actually pay attention to it. [b] GAMEPLAY [/b] As previously stated, I am not good at this type of simulation games and if you were to check my game collection you won't find similar titles to this one. However... This one plays differently, sure it has all the functions a game like this has, but it is much easier to navigate, understand the mechanics and gameplay is much more intuitive, than I expected. Although, certain individuals may find this game a bit too repetitive (which is why I actually like it). [b] AUDIO [/b] Have you seen those relaxing 'ambient' videos on YouTube? That's what you get in the game. The soundtrack is not intrusive nor prominent (unless you blast that sh!t on max volume) and if you close your eyes, you might just find yourself drifting somewhere in space and chilling in your capsule - try it. [b] TECH STUFF [/b] I might be wrong but I think you might just be able to run it on your PC Space Potato II Duo or whatever. It is about 155 MB heavy, so you could actually say 'it's light-weight baby'. I am 56h in on this thing and 31 of 48 achievement progress and I have never encountered any issues or bugs, game never crashed even with +100 browser tabs opened. [b] TL;DR [/b] To sum up, I highly recommend this one despite the mixed reviews. I also have 'The Galactology' and will give it a go sometime in the future 🧐

Jogo fraco, desinteressante e descartável, não vale o tempo gasto. Só "terminei" ele por causa das conquistas, que são o ponto mais ridículo do jogo, sendo a mais difícil ter 100k de visitantes, algo que levaria mais de 200h para conquistar dada a dinâmica do jogo, fora a imbecilidade de ter que fazer 1000 caçadas, algo surreal para um jogo que não tem algo que te prenda ao jogo. Fraco fraco. Tem outros tão simples quanto porém com uma imersão melhor, de um gênero parecido.

Old school bur good.

Okay but got a bit tedious, after a while.

I like space :)

SteamDeck Review It says its great on deck but i would say its only (just) playable. Its still just mouse driven so the X, Y, A & B buttons do nothing. All the UI is scaled nicely though. With a mod this would be great!
