I am compelled to write a positive review for this game even though I refunded it. I only played the game for a little over 60 minutes, but it's obvious a TON of care, thoughtfulness, and precision went into creating it! I am blown away by the various interactions between systems, the construction minutiae, and the unorthodox UX design to handle player inventory with L+R hands. I regret that this game (and it's deep complexity) is just not for me right now, but it's something I am glad exists for other people to enjoy at a much higher level than I can. Devs -- good job, you've been supporting your dream since 2017 and I wish you many more years of success. Keep up the great work!

If you’ve ever thought, “I wish there was more survival in my engineering game” (or vice versa) then Stationeers is absolutely worth checking out. In Stationeers you don't just build a base, you have to build all the systems that make that base work. Atmospherics, hydroponics, power distribution, logistics, manufacturing—if there’s a system you can imagine, it’s probably modelled here in some regard. And when something explodes, it’s almost certainly your fault. But in a fun way! The magic of the game is that every problem has a dozen valid solutions, from elbow-grease and brute force all the way to elegant and efficient automation, and every one of them can be over-engineered to an insane degree. You might start off just wanting to make your airlock cycle a little faster, and a few hours later you are taking a step back to proudly regard your fully automated atmospheric recycling facility (though the airlock is probably still slow, XD) And that’s the joy of it: Stationeers gives you the tools, the freedom, and just enough survival pressure to give you a heading before handing you the reins—then it's all you. Though I will warn you, the UI inherits a great deal from its Space Station 13 inspiration. Whether you consider that a plus or a minus is down to personal preference, but it is quite different from most games, so may take a bit to get used to. But that concern notwithstanding, if you enjoy deep simulation, clever problem-solving, and occasionally finding yourself asking, “Are pipes supposed to make that groaning sound?” then absolutely give Stationeers a go.

This game is deceptively simple. Instead of difficulty through obscurity, it choses to layer simple steps and logic over and over to compound the difficulty. Youll start with simple pipe mechanics and construction and end with gas laws and phase change mechanics. You can chose at any point to tackle any problem in the multiple ways they give you to do so. Find workarounds, find patch jobs, build mechanisms that run themselves, automate to perfection, or throw something at the wall till it works. Base too hot to live in? Build a complicated aircon loop to shed heat into a waste tank or outerspace. Exploit phase change to do it effeciently. Use machines and logic circuits to automate it. Or throw ice on the ground to melt and shed the excess gas. You do you booboo. The game gets constant updates, fixes, and content, the community is willing to help the newbies learn, the Workshop is plentiful, each planet provides a new challenge. This game is my single favorite and I dont see that changing any time soon.

Honest review by me, a man who dropped out of high school and has absolutely no book smarts whatsoever or any knowledge in Aerospace, Engineering, etc… TLDR; The game is amazing, 10/10. Lot’s to learn to be able to keep playing. Be prepared to fail and learn a lot. The tutorial is semi helpful, but consider yourself to be on your own and do your own research to survive. Loads of content that can get you to be very creative. I’ll start off by saying this game requires a passion to want to learn more about how everything works within the game. As someone who knows nothing about science and such, I have no idea what I’m doing and have perished many, many times… With each failure, I learned how to survive a little longer. Being just over 50 hours into this, I finally have a pressurized habitat balanced with Nitrogen and Oxygen so I don’t suffocate and fall unconscious! It only took 50 hours! Tutorials are hard to come by and guides are outdated since this new update. The learning curve is intense and requires lots of trial and error. I do have a lot of passion when it comes to space and science, but never could get myself to actually do the school to pursue a career(s) in such a vast field of knowledge and learning. I have never played a game where I have done so much reading and note taking. I literally have a notebook next to me when I play to keep track of what has worked and what has failed. For example, pressurizing pipes and filtration of gasses, air locks inputting and outputting specific gasses, and logic on how to automatically angle solar panels to follow the sun! The list goes on! I still have yet to grow a single potato. I’m struggling there. This is not an easy survival crafter. Dedication is required. I am not sure what’s fueling me to keep playing, but it is certainly scratching an itch in my semi smooth brain. I have no idea how realistic this is compared to what real life science people do, but I feel smarter playing this! Unbelievable amount of content as well. I feel I have only scratched the surface to the content that awaits in my playthrough. Absolutely recommend this game. Quite the challenge and something I’ve really wanted in a survival crafter.

Warning! This game is not a product of a board-meeting-driven, money-maxxing company that only cares about its fanbase so long as it makes money. No, this is quite literally a passion project led by people who love gaming and connecting with us, the fans. There is nothing out there like Stationeers. It features full-on atmospheric simulation like nowhere else—you build a small base, pressurize it with breathable gas, and if you destroy a wall or window, it all escapes and pushes you out. If you pressurize it with a mix of hydrogen and oxygen instead, you can set a spark and watch it spectacularly burn out with amazing visuals. The terrain is destructible—can dig out a tunnel, seal it and make a base in. You’ve got to be a specific type of person who likes to build something bit by bit and isn’t afraid of learning. Yes, learning how things work is a challenge, but if you are willing and patient, you’ll get joy even from something as small as seeing your potato grow. You can create your own airlock, automatic temperature control, mix gases into fuel and smelt with it (even alloys), automate solar panel alignment, manage power and batteries, work with phase changes of gases and liquids to make a real-life air conditioner, build your own Apollo 1 simulation chamber, a pipe organ?!?, a swimming pool — even a rocket that mines ice from asteroids, and so much more. The developers know this game is too niche to make solid money, but they made it anyway so they could learn coding and fulfill a dream one great dev had. It keeps getting updates, and I can attest that love is truly included in the package. I even chatted one-on-one with the devs on Discord—that’s how down-to-earth and friendly they are. At the time of this review, a huge update is out: it adds new toys, loads of fixes, and makes terrain look fabulous. The community is also very positive and helpful—games like these filter out bad-mannered people. Try it. It’s something quite different, and you might just have a blast (a literal one, too).
