  • Summary: SpaceVenture is a sci-fi comedy adventure game that combines interplanetary exploration, puzzle-solving, and space travel- not to mention "pant loads" of pop culture satire and some good, clean "potty" humor.

    When the spaceport "facilities" are backed up and stuff's about to hit the fan...

    When someone's darling little spawn tries to flush their pet Narblitz down the john...

    When your life support ducts are in need of , er...life support...

    It s time to call in a professional!

    Enter Ace Hardway - plumber to the stars. An intergalactic Mr. Fix-it armed with his trusty wrench, duct tape, and an impressive 'norge', Ace fearlessly plunges into adventure, rooting-out trouble wherever he smells it. Yeah... unclogging wormholes is a dirty job, but someone has to do it.

    Space Venture definitely scratches some of the itches but also falls a little far of the mark. It’s not overly long (even with some frustrating late game problems to solve)… but the pop culture references and easter eggs plus the overall vibe do make it worth considering for fans of the original Space Quest games. It is still technically in Early Access so there’s a chance some of the issues will actually be fixed before it is officially released. As it is, given it’s not overly expensive… it might still be worth a look for fans of the original games.

    After years of incremental improvements, the final release of SpaceVenture is a fairly entertaining experience tailored especially for Space Quest fans that’s still plagued by a significant number of unfortunate caveats.

    SpaceVenture finally arrives after more than a decade, but it feels trapped in the past. While it offers old-school adventure charm, absurd humor, and a few nostalgic ideas, outdated design, clumsy UI, short length, and aging jokes hold it back. A curiosity for fans of classic adventures, but a tough sell for modern players.
