Space Age is a game of cosmic adventure. Set in the retro-futuristic sci-fi world of 1976, it follows a small but determined band of intergalactic explorers who land on a seemingly uninhabited planet, Kepler-16. They soon discover there’s something both strange and familiar about this alien place… And what happens next is a clash of old and new, a battle of past mistakes and future fallout.

8 of 15Entertaining story with great sense of humor. “Fog of war” mechanism is clever and adds to your experience as a “space explorer.” Gameplay is challenging, requiring lots of trial and error to find the correct way to complete each stage, but was never frustrating. Visually appealing retro graphics, music wonderful with headphones. Highly recommend!
Very exciting game
There’s no option to tap to progress the dialogue. It continues on its own and I simply can’t read that small of text that fast. For an adventure game, you’d think they would have this as an option as this is standard for every other adventure game. Please fix...
Don’t buy this game unless you want to waste your money
The one star person is being way too harsh. There’s a lot of text, but if you don’t mind that (I like VNs so it doesn’t bother me) it’s a fun adventure and I never felt confused or incapable of moving forward. I also don’t work for the developers lol.
As an old school Sierra gamer in the 80’s, this game was a fantastic experience. It is a quality story with that good quality feel of the original sci-fi of the 20th century. The touch control is intuitive and simple to use as well.
Confused as to why this is so highly rated and awarded Editor's Choice... It's not much of a game. It's mostly just watching dialogue. No, I didn't get that far into it because if a game starts off with 10 of your first 15 minutes watching characters talk, that's not a great game no matter how you slice it, regardless of how much setup you need for your story. Bummer, because it seemed like it had promise.
This has a great story line totally worth the buck I spent on it
