Serious kudos to all who love this game and have spent hours playing it. I commend you. This game is far too complicated for a player like me. If you loved making every redstone contraption you could in Minecraft, you'll love this game. It's not for me. Even the YT tutorials were too much for me to follow. After six hours of play, I just didn't find any fun in this and uninstalled it. Maybe one day I'll pick it up again, but this dog is too old to be taught the complex tricks in this game.

If you take a look at my hours, it will probably tell you everything you need to know. (I require the grass.) The game is good, what else can I say, its an open sandbox with a pretty stellar building system, fantastic physics and a survival gameplay loop that is pretty easy to get caught up in. This is a game where you need to build things to build other things, there are ways do things on the quick and nasty, but "engineering" your way around things and making them look 'pretty' is a very fun loop. The developers are some of the very few I will buy DLC just to support them, but even then the DLC is pretty decent, for the most part, some are certainly better then others, however the best part is aside from the cosmetics, the DLC isn't even required to experience everything this game has to offer, with every "update" being launched as a free gameplay update, along side an accompanying cosmetic DLC, this model I can very much approve of, and am happy to take part of. Another example o...

This game is awesome if you play it correctly, and if you have a tolerance for complexity. Unfortunately, the way the game recommends you play is bad. Do NOT start a game in survival. Do NOT start a game on a planet. The very first thing you should do, is open the workshop and find a cool spaceship that someone else has made with their fancy space legos, load it up with game settings "Safe" and no Mining Ships or other NPCs, and just explore the ship. The real fun of this game is designing and building lego spaceships (with your friends even!), not playing Survival mode. Because, once you sink your teeth into building spaceships, you will find that the game can do anything and everything you could ever dream of. There is a block in this game that OPENS A LUA SCRIPTING CONSOLE where you can paste custom code that you wrote yourself (or found on the workshop). In this game it's possible to write your own virus that reverses gravity, opens every airlock, and tries to make ever...

I have 400+ hours because this is the only game in its genre (edit: Starship Evo is a good contender but it's still in alpha, then again so is this game LMAO). The very name of the game is a sham. It's more space LEGOs than it is space "engineers". To engineer something, you need to have some base of consistent behavior. Consistency is not a guarantee in this game, as it is full of 5+ year old bugs that should be easy to fix. I'll post a short list below. Want to build a missile that reliably explodes on impact? Sorry, your missiles will only explode half the time. https://support.keenswh.com/spaceengineers/pc/topic/armed-warhead-damage-transfer-issue Want to build an aircraft carrier that can deploy on a planet?

Excellent game, one of my all time favourites. Recommend Splitsie's videos as a tutorial to get started. Also don't get put off by the amount of DLC going - the base game has tons of content and they are definitely extras.

A fun game that sadly has already been turned into a DLC mess and the developer for absolutely no reason making the same game over again with the number 2 added just to swindle another purchase out of people instead of just updating their current game. Play Space Build in garry's mod instead

A heck of a game, incredible modding community, and no limit other then what your pc can handle. Thanks Keen, 10/10

Bought the game because it's on sale. Just tried it, but so far i don't think it's worth it. Controls are not consistent (some doors can be opened with mouse, others need the F key), physics is kinda weird, like inside the spaceship you seem to be weightless, but when you jump overa hole and miss, you fall down, so suddenly no more weightless. Also, the controls are very sensitive. I have to point the mouse exact on a terminal and nog a few mm left or right, or it doesnt respond. Last but not least it has a very steep learning curve. So i might give it a chance in the future but right now, the game was disappointing enough for me to not even complete the first missions.

Play it for very long, Creative very fun, requires a little bit of thinking and programming, new player friendly and have tutorial , although it is not as useful as expected and outdated. Survival is kinda hard, and you wouldn't have chance to get all material for free , so must make ship extremely useful. Without friends playing with you will be bored. still not buying space engineer 2 as is already good

great game with a unique concept but the hud and menus are sluggish to navigate
