Picks

Chris

Kerbal Space Program
- Available on Steam. It’s still in Beta and is certainly rough round the edges but is an amazing Space Sandbox game - where you’re pretty much left to start up your own space program from scratch.
- Build rockets, send manned missions into space, to the mun, try and get everyone back safely!
- Nicely characterized but extremely technical
- Thanks to Paul for the pick.
