  • Sci-fi setting
  • Cosy, great for unwinding
  • Lots to discover

As an astronaut you explore colorful planets, reshape terrain like clay with your terrain tool, and build bases with automated production chains. A relaxed mix of discovery, gathering and tinkering, solo or in co-op.

No Man's Sky

Lavish presentation

A near-infinite procedurally generated universe where you hop freely between vivid alien planets, gather resources, build bases and upgrade your ships. Years of free updates have turned it into a relaxed sci-fi sandbox with optional co-op.

Starseeker: Astroneer Expeditions

Co-op or multiplayer

A cooperative space adventure set in the Astroneer universe, where a crew works together to explore planets across star systems and complete objectives. Discovery and camaraderie take center stage.

Planet Crafter

Sci-fi setting

You terraform a hostile planet by gathering resources, building bases and machines, and watching a barren wasteland slowly gain atmosphere, water and life. The blend of calm survival and visible, large-scale progress is what makes it special.

Satisfactory

Lavish presentation

As a FICSIT Pioneer you build sprawling automated factories in first person on an alien planet. Designing efficient production chains in a beautiful open world, solo or in co-op, is deeply satisfying.

The Tomorrow Children

Lavish presentation

A cooperative building and survival game set in a surreal, Soviet-flavored retro future: you team up with other players to dig for resources in the Void, grow a town and fend off giant monsters. Its distinctive voxel-based lighting and art style set it apart.

Dyson Sphere Program

Puzzles and brain teasers

A space factory-automation game where you build production chains across multiple planets and ultimately wrap a star in a Dyson sphere. The appeal lies in optimizing sprawling logistics networks on a galactic scale.

Nova Lands

Sci-fi setting

A relaxed factory-building and island-management game on an alien planet where you explore, automate production chains, and handle light combat along the way.

Hardspace: Shipbreaker

Lavish presentation

As a debt-laden salvage worker you dismantle huge spaceships in zero gravity with a cutter and grapple, sorting parts for profit. Physics-driven puzzling, the threat of explosions and a meditative work rhythm make it special.
