    What a pleasant surprise! Really don't know why this game isn't getting more attention. Went into it not even knowing what it was, and I must admit, I rather fell in love with it. The concept of shoe-horning together mock social media with amateur rocket building is a bit bonkers, but it absolutely works. The videos and writing are knowingly cheesy and OTT, but I don't believe it detractsWhat a pleasant surprise! Really don't know why this game isn't getting more attention. Went into it not even knowing what it was, and I must admit, I rather fell in love with it. The concept of shoe-horning together mock social media with amateur rocket building is a bit bonkers, but it absolutely works. The videos and writing are knowingly cheesy and OTT, but I don't believe it detracts from the experience at all. I found the plot to be humorous and engaging. The core gameplay has a significant element of trial and error to it, but not in a bad way. There's (usually) solid logic underpinning the physics of the builds. Would highly recommend, very addictive game. (It's also currently on Xbox Game Pass, so definitely check it out on compatible platforms.)… Expand

    I really liked this game, it's unique and some of the challenges are difficult plus there are twists and turns in the story. All and all it's one of the best games I have played for a while. A hidden gem!

    Great game, can recommend. Building rockets, recording your launch and seeing the reactions of all the different characters makes for an addictive gameplay loop. You'll have to read quite a bit though but the story is funny and very interesting.

    Thanks to its interesting combination of content creator simulator and rocket creation, Next Space Rebels offers an original, crazy and very fun experience. A pleasant surprise.

    While Next Space Rebels’ story tends to run a bit long and the middle part feels like a grind, it’s still a great loop with FMV actors playing out the weird times we find ourselves in. It made me consider just what it was actually like to grind out an existence as an influencer at the mercy of a platform’s whims when you start with a small idea of building a soda bottle rocket in a field. Hopefully, people do stand up against the predictable dystopia we find ourselves hurtling towards. And if they do it with rockets, maybe we’re all the better for it.
