Real orbital mechanics and rocket science on your table. The most accurate space game ever made.
Vibe's take
hard science simulation, orbital mechanics, steep learning, genuine rocket engineering, rewarding mastery
Who it's for
Space enthusiasts and science-minded gamers who want actual rocket engineering challenges.
Not for you if…
You want accessible fun. The learning curve is brutal and the science is uncompromising.
The most scientifically accurate space exploration game ever made. Plan interplanetary missions using real orbital mechanics, deltaV budgets, and Hohmann transfer orbits. Auction for rocket patents, assemble spacecraft from real technology components, and launch missions to industrialize asteroids, moons, and planets. The learning curve is steep, but the reward is genuine rocket science on your table. The fourth edition streamlines rules and adds solo play. Not a game about space fantasy; a game about what space travel actually requires.
