    The gameplay is engaging and features a mix of buying, selling, and repairing items, with a core loop that includes haggling and participating in auctions. While the mechanics are easy to grasp and the overall experience is enjoyable, some players feel that the shooting section could be improved and that the game misses opportunities to fully embrace its space theme. Despite these critiques, the gameplay loop remains fun and offers a variety of activities to keep players entertained.

    • “The gameplay is engaging, with a mix of buying and selling, repairing items, and attending storage auctions.”
    • “The game offers three distinct layers: haggling with alien customers to squeeze out extra cash, participating in auctions where you might strike gold or end up with junk, and a shooting section that adds a fun break from the core gameplay loop.”
    • “The gameplay loop is nice, especially when you're trying to get the best deals.”
    • “It's got about 3 hours of gameplay.”
    • “The shooting mechanics could use some polishing, but it’s a nice change of pace.”
    • “I think leaning into it being a space game could have made it way better as well. I likely would not have bought the game had I known all of the planets were storage war planets. Leaning into the game being space and creating a unique little world would have done wonders, but the biggest thing was just missing the gameplay loop of why people love simulation games, and for that, it makes it hard to justify buying this game.”
