The value story
The lowest price on record is $1.99, set in June 2026. Its cuts run 80 percent off as a rule. There have been 64 in the 7 years tracked, about 6 weeks apart.
It is pricier than 83 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 86 percent. The games it most resembles do better on the same math. Deadzone: Rogue ($24.99, scores 50) and Space Haven ($24.99, scores 71) both outscore it.
This site sampled 659 of its Steam-purchase reviews; 10 were written by buyers who refunded it, sampled from reviews written April 2020 to August 2026. Inside the two-hour refund window, 45 percent of the 233 reviews written there were positive, against 69 percent overall, and those are 15 percent of everything written about it.

What players say
Take it as a casual game, not for to give your life a reason! Yes, there are repetitive elements. But a playtrough will not take you forever so it's okay. Design and graphics are good to moderate and the game mechanics are interesting (bord other ships, defend your own ship, manage your crew, defend and do science on infections on your ship, go on mining missions). There could have be done more development on this...
love this game and i really thank right now would be a great time to make #2 with all the talk about space and lots of us would love to have more or DLC i would pay for more of this i know they do not want to make #2 but i cant see why lots of people love this game and i could see even more people loving it or open the workshop so we can add to the game
The idea is great but there just are so many really bad design decisions and it gets really repetitive
