  1. More than merely "Sea Monkeys in Space", Space Station Sim is a rocket-boosted title that won't break the exploration budget. In the immortal words of Casey Kasem: "Keep your feet on the ground, and keep reaching for the stars."

    Leave rocket building to the rocket scientists. [Apr 2006, p.100]
  3. But if you've got a stack of rejected astronaut applications, or have been struggling to save up that 20 or so million to hitch a ride up with the Russians, SpaceStationSim could be just what you need.
  4. Although Space Station Sim offers up a unique experience and is the only game that gives you the opportunity to actually manage a space station and the astronauts who inhabit it, it doesn't offer the sort of excitement and intensity you'd expect.

    Too simple and lacking the stats for space nerds, 3S is probably better for kids. However, the steep learning curve and the general lack of feedback, especially for failures, means the game probably isn’t for anyone.
