About

Space Station Alpha is a game where you build and manage a space station in the outer reaches of the Milky Way.

You have been given a small bit of space of your own, a handful of credits and a beat up old WorkerBot(tm). Your task is to take this undeveloped piece of vacuum and turn it into a tourist center/economic hub/mega-prison/diplomatic epicenter or any combination you can manage.

The challenges will be many, oxygen will escape through every tiny hole in the hull, you'll contend with asteroid showers and nebulous alien blobs. In the end though the hardest hing will be managing the various needs and wants of your various squishy alien customers.

Space Station Alpha reviews and comments

The game will give you for about 3 hours of fun, so I recommend buying only on offer. It'S A game with a lot of potential but it seems to have been abandoned. At 3 hours you've done everything, there are more buildings and things to do, as well as missions and improve something else. You Have to build a space station with the help of robots and then visitors and workers can come (who will die if they run out of oxygen). Later you can take prisoners and they can escape and attack you. I Value very positively that the game is translated into Castilian and there is a very well done tutorial. I Also value very positively that there is a panel of options with good sound controls and music.

Juegazo with a lot of future, you like the strategy? The construction? The space? Meteors, Martians, ships? And many other things that I have not yet discovered? Well, this is your game. Manage and carry as far as possible your space station. Play with great difficulty (notice in advance). Pros: Addictive Good handling of the game Tutorial TOTALLY IN SPANISH Game in Spanish FLT Mix, Rimworld, Prison Architect, Space colony (and some more game you can add, but judge it yourself) recommended Price Just Came out so we waited many Updates Management of your space station, in which you can convert it for homes & jails (at least until what is because their difficulty is high and I have only been able to build the right thing I learned in the tutorial) Has elevated constructions, not if I I explain, you can build in different layers, so far I have reached the 4 layer. Has Events! That come out randomly I can Not think of more things for the moment but I was pleasantly surprised. Cons: Meteorites are a touch webs, even that you can regulate from the game. Some bug but at the moment everything great. I hope you continue to work with the game because it has a great future.

Our mission is to administer a space station trying to make money with it. We'll Start with little and nothing, and we'll expand its size and performance. We are Not alone, some robots, to which we can program their behavior, will help us to keep the station in order. As we move forward and create rooms, canteens and chambers Criógnicas tourists will arrive, some of them we can hire to work at the station, or put them in prison if they commit crimes:D So Far The game is easy, the difficulty you can set as to whether you want to play or not with events like attacks of hostile beings, power failures, rain of asteroids. Graphically simple and poorly optimized, it sometimes consumes so much that it even hangs up if the Windows screensaver is activated. Poor Sound and music... How to say it... Unbearable, but it can be removed. The gameplay is good, in fact, that I hooked by how simple it is to handle things inside the station, but as I said before, as the station grows it gets very slow interface for some tasks:/ This game I bought very cheap, cents, no chrome. The achievements are bugueados as some cannot be obtained (although I will retry a couple of times more to get Them). If You like simulation, you get it for pennies, and you want to entertain for 3 hours, well, this game is fine.
