Each time the add-ons have added more to the game-play than would be expected from their descriptions. There is also the Breaking Ground expansion that adds a wealth of parts around robots and rovers. It also adds missions that recreate famous moments in space history. Making History adds parts from historic space ships. In Career mode you can have a set of missions if you want.Īll of that is before you add any of the expansions. In Science you do have to conduct research to unlock parts, but no one is telling you what research or what order. In Sandbox everything is available at the start. In both the Sandbox and Science modes there isn’t a required set of missions or jobs to be accomplished to move forward. If I want to build a large space station I can.

The freedom you are provided is where I find the most joy.

You can recreate the Lunar landing or plan your own Mars landing. You can build a rocket as large as you want as long as it will hold itself together. While you are limited by the laws of physics that is the only real restriction. KSP gives you the chance to run your own space program. Why This Game?Īs someone who enjoys space, physics, and LEGOs this game really appealed to me. In all I have over 200 hours of game-play on this game through steam, and I have no plans of stopping in the near future. The basics of game-play are simple, but hide the real complexity you’ll discover over time. The simplicity of the game-play, the completeness of the physics, and the open world make for a great game. Kerbal Space Program(KSP) from Squad is a game that is probably my favorite game ever.
