Space M+A+X

Manage the build-up and operation of a space station in this management/business simulation. Space MAX is one of the more interesting games of this genre, which flooded the German market in the late 80's and early 90's-- and one of the best of its kind. A quality game into the last detail, and after all it's much more fun to manage a NASA space-station instead of a wineyard as seen in Winzer. Not as strategy-oriented as Interplay's Buzz Aldrin's Race into Space, as the emphasis here is on simulation.

Overall, probably one of the best space station simulations ever made-- much better than Accolade's Apollo 18 and more realistic than Karl Buiter's classic Earth Orbit Stations, althought arguably not as playable.
