Why you might like it

  • Players who want to design and build spaceships and stations piece-by-piece rather than choosing from preset hulls.
  • Fans of highly technical simulation systems, since Starbase models everything from bolts to full station structures.
  • Anyone excited to grow with a game in active ongoing Early Access development, with regular test-universe updates.
Before you play

Things to consider

  • The game remains in Early Access after launching in 2021, with several major features still being worked on.
  • Its learning curve is steep even by space-sim standards; building and piloting require real technical understanding of the game's systems.
  • Player population and server activity can vary, being typical of a niche, still-developing Early Access sandbox.
