Review/Spacebase Startopia (PS4)
How about directing a giant floating doughnut full of aliens? Haven’t you asked this question before?! Well, this is the question asked.Spacebase StartopiaToday we will learn more about the game. We will also study whether it is good; obviously, I recently reported the early release of this title. If you want simple information, you can get it here.
I will begin this comment with some disclaimers. So I write without any empty space. Because I was interested in other people’s ideas, I read other reviews of the game I was analyzing. Do I agree that they are completely beyond the scope of the problem, and they will not affect my score in any way. I just noticed different opinions out of curiosity. This is important in this particular case. becauseSpacebase StartopiayesIntercity paradise, published more than 10 years ago.
What I have noticed is that many things are compared. This is dangerous. Because if you really like the original, if your successor(spiritually or otherwise) fails to meet expectations, you will be very disappointed. If you have such a mindset, I think you will be more picky than when you first came in. 1. On the other hand, I have no comparable space, so I look at this game from the perspective of a newcomer. I raise this point because some of you may be looking for comparisons, and they may not be there.
In this case,Spacebase Startopiasimilar.Underground city water levelOr closer to the truth.Theme hospital▲ You command the space station, and you want to make other kinds of aliens living there happy. In this process, you need to make money for your bureaucratic boss. All thisVAL value. VAL valueThis is your AI. If she is sarcastic, it is too understatement. Even if you do a good job, you have to backhand something as small as your back. Well, you are the original meat bag, because you have a cabbage like IQ. Why do you want your computer to ignore you?
Levels ofSpacebase StartopiaIs a separate task. You must achieve various goals. The first three are simulated. If you don’t mess up completely, you can remotely access the real TV station there. Your space station is divided into three decks, so many tasks are being carried out. These decks are your lower decks. There are your manufacturing facilities, medical capsules, sleep capsules, entertainment decks and biological decks. It is very disadvantageous in business not to give any of the three parties the necessary attention. No biological deck, no food. If aliens want to dance, you’d better prepare a dance floor for them. There are a lot of plates spinning here. This is what I really like.
Your deck. This is the heart of this ship. You will spend most of your time here.
The aliens you care for are not just your employees. Don’t misunderstand me. You hire aliens to do everything in the big pond, but first they are on vacation. Even so, you must make them feel as happy and comfortable as possible. If you want toNo,I’m glad they told you this absolutely. So it’s a good idea to focus on your demographics. Unhappy aliens don’t just wander around in trouble. They will tell you why you are angry. They might say it’s dirty here. In this case, you need to deal with the garbage problem. They might say they can’t take a bath. This means you need to build another bed.
on the insideSpacebase StartopiaDifferent aliens perform different tasks, so make sure you use enough to make everything work. For example, your biological giant egg is taken care of by people who love natureTree demon▲ They take care of other plants and harvest them for you when you are away. These plants can not only produce leaves, but also produce oxygen. This is very important for basic skills and life, so it is worthwhile to ensure that the production meets your requirements. Although it is installed, it will look beautiful if you don’t hire a normal alien to run it. You want everything to run at maximum efficiency, so this is worth considering.
Most of your basic resources come from your biological card group. Take good care of me!
VAL valueIt’s always in your ears. During a mission, you have to be busy collecting resources for your factory, so you have to spend a lot of time on the biological deck. At the same time, sick aliens walk around on your sub deck, looking for the side of the hospital. If you don’t let them take care of you, They will start to infect others, and sick aliens will not have a good time. In addition, your competitors are launching infectious bombs on your TV stations. If the symptoms disappear, your residents will not have runny noses.VAL valueWhether the new comer is breathing or not, it can quickly notify you and handle problems when you have problems.
So, to put it simplySpacebase Startopia,A lot of things happened at the same time. Personally, I like this very much. Because I have played similar games in the past. I know what to do. Those players who want to do more with their own pace may be frustrated by the pressure. If you are one of these people, this may not be your gameSpacebase StartopiaThere are three difficulty settings to choose from, which is very suitable for attracting you to the shaking of things at the most comfortable speed.
Interesting deck. It really speaks for itself.
I must want to talk about tutorial games! I know we like to go straight into the game and pick it up when the game is going on, but in this caseSpacebase StartopiaIt’s really hard for you to get anywhere in cold weather. I ignored the tutorial on the first exam. When I realized that I didn’t know any control and didn’t get tool tips, I immediately regretted it.
There was no handshake in this game, althoughVAL valueI will tell you what to do, but I will not tell you how to do it. I was performing a mission and saw a large meat eating snail hatching on my biological deck.VAL valueHe said that he didn’t want my aliens to be eaten, which was very helpful to me, but she hasn’t told me how the machine came. Now I have to move my mecha to another deck. They just look silly standing there. I’ll solve it. But it depends on my patience and what I want to play for a while, until I get what I should do. If you want gradual guidance, you will be disappointed.
I don’t like itSpacebase StartopiaControl system. Personally, I think this is because the console controller introduces multiple commands. Once you get used to them, you will be fine, but the control of this title is uncomfortable from the beginning. When the pressure increases, you don’t want to bother to figure out the function of the button. PC versionSpacebase StartopiaBecause there is a keyboard, it is unlikely to encounter this problem. To be fair, I don’t think they do better in the PS4 version, but it is still not very good.
This is a dream game for lovers of ancient architecture. As I said before, there is no comparison.Spacebase StartopiaSo I’m not saying worse or worse. As an independent entity, this game is not only interesting, but also frustrating. If your favorite game is not to do everything step by step and let yourself make mistakes, you will be good at it. If you get used to having millions of storage points and tell you to perform even the simplest task every few steps, you will soon get angry.
to make a long story shortSpacebase StartopiaThis is a good time sink. It takes time to complete the task. So you won’t fly in the game. These three difficulty levels import different parameters respectively, and greatly increase the possibility of regeneration. If you like simulation games, you can make them worse than adding them to your game library.

The Joy of the Galaxy
If you happen to be a fan of architecture games,Spacebase StartopiaThis is a good choice. This is a strange and very pleasant type of simulation game. I think it will attract many new players. If you have played the original game, please see the game clearly. If you think of it as a separate entity, you should have a lot of fun with it. It’s better to avoid players who hate pressure, but the rest of us should definitely consider treating the game fairly.
