    A memorable indie title that shines in company but falters without. [Issue#167, p.87]

    Asteroid Base have done a fine job with Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime, providing that you're a co-op gamer. Single players will likely find that they enjoy things up until the game becomes too overwhelming. Still, as a whole, there's a lot to like here – including genuine innovation - and it's definitely something different.

    Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime tried for a bold experiment with its control scheme, and though this sets it apart from other similar games, it’s ultimately an experiment that needs to go back to the drawing board.

    For the life of me I don't understand why some idiots would give this 2 negative reviews? Obviously they haven't played the game, just readFor the life of me I don't understand why some idiots would give this 2 negative reviews? Obviously they haven't played the game, just read the title and decided as (2 very mature 13 year olds) to give this a zero because it was pink and had love in the title. I've put in 15 hours with a buddy of mine and I have to say...I haven't had this much fun playing a video game in years. Run, don't walk to your console and buy this game. It's FANTASTIC. It's a solid 9, I'm giving it a ten to counter the ludicrous reviews. Full Review »

    When your friend won't
    I don't care about the stress levels this game causes, but more about the beautifully friendship-ending moments.

    When your friend won't co-operate and acts if they are deaf while you are trying to do everything. When your friend rage quits because you aren't listening to a word they say. When you feel like smashing a plate over your friends head because they turned the TV off in frustration.

    The amount of moments this game has that kills your friendship almost make up for terrible gameplay. Well, if the gameplay was bad. The gameplay is ridiculed with traps and ways to die with many ways to strengthen your relationship somehow. 97.56789% loss of friendship, 2.111111% strengthen of friendship.

    I recommend this game to everyone, but especially good-at-arguing people with loads of friends and also someone who isn't easily stressed and doesn't mind losing a friend.
