    Thus, "Spacebase Startopia" presents itself more as a decent building game on the console. The tasks and scenarios are pleasant to play and the storyline is also somewhat convincing. Unfortunately, the jokes aren't always funny and provide rather comical moments in the course of the story. The actual controls and flow are okay, but simply become confusing due to many possibilities. TheThus, "Spacebase Startopia" presents itself more as a decent building game on the console.

If you need another building game for the console, you should look for an alternative or get some good nerves.… Expand

    Spacebase Startopia provides a decent challenge with its cosmic twist on the city-builder/resort management genre, and it hits more than it misses. The combat feels a bit misplaced and difficult to care about, but it’s not a big feature of the game and encounters are few and far between. The real fun is getting into the nitty-gritty of keeping your guests happy and keeping that sweet energy money flowing so that you can finally finish your doughnut-shaped galactic getaway.

    This is a fun strategy game with a great sense of humor. It might feel repetitive but its strengths are clear and will appeal the most nostalgic fans of the genre.

    It may not be for hardcore simulation fans but folks like me who enjoy a more arcade-style sim experience will find Spacebase Startopia to be quite a delightful gem of a game. Plus, it's downright hilarious.
