Description
In Kerbal Space Program, take charge of the space program for the alien race known as the Kerbals. You have access to an array of parts to assemble fully-functional spacecraft that flies (or doesn’t) based on realistic aerodynamic and orbital physics. Launch your Kerbal crew into orbit and beyond (while keeping them alive) to explore moons and planets in the Kerbol solar system, constructing bases and space stations to expand the reach of your expedition.

Kerbal Space Program features three gameplay modes. In Science Mode, perform space experiments to unlock new technology and advance the knowledge of Kerbalkind. In Career Mode, oversee every aspect of the space program, including construction, strategy, funding, upgrades, and more. In Sandbox, you are free to build any spacecraft you can think of, with all parts and technology in the game.

Try out the many mods created by the Kerbal Space Program community!
  • Build spaceships, rockets, and vehicles using any imaginable combination of parts, each with their own function that will affect the way your spacecraft behaves.
  • Take full control over your ship’s setup to execute complex flight maneuvers.
  • Manage your Kerbal crewmembers, including hiring, training, and sending them into space to become heroes.
  • Discover a whole star system with unique moons and planets, exploring detailed terrain at a vast scale.
  • Send your Kerbal crew outside their ships for “extra-vehicular” activities.
  • Dock spacecraft together to construct space stations, massive starships, and surface bases on new planets.
  • Use satellites to scan terrain and find biomes and other anomalies.
  • Set up communications networks to communicate between your spacecraft and Kerbal Space Center.
  • Research and develop new technologies to extract valuable information and resources from all over the solar system, and much more!

quicksave is your friend

You build rockets and try to explore space. Overall, the game does deliver that very good. The career mode gives your progress some structure which makes it easyer to get into the game. As far as I can tell it, the physics are generally quite well for a game too. There is a Demo out there which I tried first and I think it doesn't do the complete game justice. I found the game much better than what the Demo showed at first. The biggest negative point, which leads to only 3 stars in my review, is that it crashes far too often. It crashes about once every 2 hours for me (win 10, a4-6300, integrated graphics).

Build the rockets you ever wanted

To be honest, my most liked part of the game is the sandbox mode where a good buddy (he is the much more experienced player) and I do compete in self-made challanges like "highest top-speed at the end of the runway" or fastet rocket. The graphics are quite fine for the game. Of course, it is far away from beeing beautiful, but it runs on almost any PC and therefore it is fine, as the look is not what the game was made for Building at staging spacships is, after some time, very easy to do and even for total newcomers quite easy to handle. Happily the menues got better in the last patches, before that it was a bit difficult in my eyes. Steering and controlling a space vehicle is kind of easy, but I would love to see multi-selection of the same parts, for example the landing wheels on a "space plane", as it is some kind of difficult to click them all by there own (yes i know that parts that where placed with using the duplication mode in the hanger do it all at once). There are still some kind of glitches in the game, but as far as I could figure it out, they are quite entertaining and far away from beeing a "gamebreaker". For me it is simply a great way to build the rockets or planes I ever wanted to create and of course to see if they would actually have worked as I planned them.

I still have to figure how physics work

Some say this game isn't for everyone. They're right, unless you're OK to make a supposedly simple rocket spin on itself and immediately crash after an eight-shaped looping, laugh hard, not understand what just happened, try again, get your very first Kerbonaut in space, deorbit him, and leave him stranded without fuel aroun the Mun. Then, you'll become frustrated and start thinking - and reading - hard about planet physics and stuffs like that. It can be frightening, and I hope it's gonna be rewarding. I'm still trying to figure how to nicely orbit something around Kerban. Atmospheric reentry optional.

KSP - it really is rocket science.

KSP is a great, flawed game. It can be insanely addicted and habit-forming, but also incredibly frustrating. Don't believe people when they say it's a game for everyone; it really isn't. What it is is a game for the dedicated perfectionist, someone who is willing to devote a large amount of time to mastering a very specific set of skills in order to succeed. Your first few hours with the game will most likely to excruciatingly difficult, and full of trial-and-error moments where you have literally no idea what you're doing wrong. But once you hit your groove and master the basic mechanics of the game, it can become incredibly rewarding. My advice to newbies is to go look at the wiki first. Join the forums. Look up the reddit. Immerse yourself in the actual community of the game before playing. Also go and subscribe to Youtubers like Scott Manley, who give brilliant tutorials on the basic game-play and provide inspirational examples of what you can accomplish in it. In many ways, playing KSP is like going on an international trip. You have to do a LOT of tiresome busywork - ordering tickets, checking passports, organizing luggage, learning local laws, etc - but it's all in preparation for a unique experience. Prepare well and you'll be left with an unmatched sense of accomplishment. Prepare badly and you'll be hitting that Refund button before the ten hour mark.
