What people are saying
Mixed: praised for puzzles and atmosphere, but criticized for short length and asset flip concerns.
Many players enjoy the challenging puzzles and atmospheric sci-fi setting, comparing it favorably to Portal. The game is praised for its graphics and thought-provoking mechanics. [3][7][11][21]
However, a significant number of players criticize the game for being very short, overpriced, and potentially an asset flip. Some also note poor English translation and simplistic puzzles. [30][34][35][33]

60 of 194 · most liked first[url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asset_flip]Warning: Asset Flip! SPACE ACCIDENT is a Digital Homicide style asset flip, or what Valve calls a "Fake Game". The "developer" paid for/pirated a few Unity asset store packs, dumped them all in a blender, and submitted it to Valve as if they're real game developers. Two notable criteria for what makes an asset flip instead of legitimate use of stock assets are whether those assets comprise the majority of the game, and whether the "developer"…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I was asked to review the game by the developer and was given a key for free. I was interested to try a new puzzle game with some sort of underlying plot mystery but unfortunately from what i played, this wasn't it. The game is dull, dark and offers no information regarding your environment whatsoever. Your silent protagonist, a space ship mechanic, apparently has no information to offer regarding how the systems he supposedly maintains work and you;re just thrown into a room with a laser…

negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →With a discount, the game is ok, but of course the portal is much better
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game feels like it's going for a Turing Test or similar vibe, but it fails hard and on two fronts. 1: The game is google translated. No native English speaker proof read this game. 2: The core gameplay mechanic of "laser box lets the laser through sometimes" feels like the devs were trying to make a Portal-esque laser redirect cube and it glitched and let the laser through and redirected it at the same time, and instead of trying to fix it they built the game around it. Note I said…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →«SPACE ACCIDENT» 3D first-person Puzzle game in sci-fi setting. Gameplay: https://youtu.be/a1fE59U-dcY In order to solve the puzzle, the player must interact with their environment using switches, boxes and laser beams. The game full of both new and classic mechanics and deceptively simple-looking, but has a ton of complexity. I recommend SPACE ACCIDENT all fans of games like Portal. Solve puzzles to test your logic, think outside the box, act fast and use your skills. With physics/No combat!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I recommend this game to players who like to look for non-trivial solutions in puzzles. The complexity of the game makes the gameplay very unusual.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It is unclear where to start the game. Oh, yes!!! It's unclear what to do? Oh, yes!!! This is a game about when you understand the task, but you don't understand how to solve the problem. It is worth noting for this genre a very beautiful graphics, and an unusual approach that is needed in solving the problems that the game offers you. I liked it, I can recommend this game for the evening.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Incredibly short, overpriced, very simplistic, boring puzzle game. All of the mechanics are shown to you at the start, nothing new or exciting is really introduced as the levels progressed. The english translation of this story barley makes sense. 17$CAD for 4 levels of a puzzle game is laughable, don't waste your money on this. Also, it's apparently an asset flip. 2/10
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →this game costs 22 AUD and i completed the full game in half an hour, this was the biggest waste of money. if you like puzzle games just play portal or gravitas (a much better, longer game thats free) or just search itch.io for one.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Quite a difficult puzzle. The truth is short, but it's worth it. Makes you think and look for solutions for a long time. If you haven't played it yet, I definitely advise you to do it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is right up there on the list of most tedious games I ever tried to play. And I'm old enough to have played Atari 2600 E.T. when it originally came out. The premise is good...solve puzzles aboard a spaceship to move throughout the ship. Puzzles basically consist of using these glowing orbs to redirect laser beams and energize cylinders located throughout a room. Normally they just bend the laser, but if you place the orb JUST RIGHT it creates its own laser than you can rotate. It's…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I got this game when it was free and it wasn't even worth that. This is such a short and boring puzzle game I would barely even call it that.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It is unclear how to start the game. Oh, yes! Unclear what to do? Oh, yes! This game is about understanding the task but not understanding how to solve the problem. It is worth noting that this genre features very beautiful graphics and an unusual approach necessary to solve the challenges presented by the game. I enjoyed it, and I recommend this game for the evening.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →not fun. extrem boring puzzle game with enoying physics
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →In spanish we call this "basura"
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →SPACE ACCIDENT is a well-made 3d puzzle game with space theme. The graphics is amazing, ambient is spooly and puzzles are interesting. It even has a plot, which is pretty entertaining. I definitely recommend playing this game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →graphically ok, but for a game thats base "puzzle" function is to pick up a box and put it on a pad your ability to do so is at best pants. the box gets caught on everything and stuff. but thats ok we have lazers, oh yeah lazers the possibilities are endless now ....oh wait all were doing is aligning the lazers muhh. but as long as we can do that and theres no like visual problem for example, so when you line it up you cant actually see wtf your doing, that would really??.. ..OH COME ON!! ffs.…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A puzzle game with a story. The plot, of course, does not reach the level of Portal, but otherwise - acceptable. Graphics, musical accompaniment, complexity of puzzles is increasing. Not bad.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a cool puzzle game, similar to Portal. It’s a shame it doesn’t have multiplayer — we wanted to play with a friend, but we couldn’t connect.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I absolutely loved SPACE ACCIDENT! The game delivers an intense, adrenaline‑pumping experience with its fast‑paced mechanics and stunning space visuals. The storyline keeps you hooked from the first mission to the very last one — you never know what’s coming next. Controls are smooth, the challenges are tough but fair, and the variety of ships and upgrades adds a ton of replay value. It’s a must‑play for any space‑combat fan! Highly recommend.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Thomas dies at the end, and you are Andy. It's just portal 1 but bad
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →My hero is Andy Freeman, an engineering technician on the spacecraft Zeus-M700, which was sent on an expedition to Jupiter's moon for colonization purposes. However, things didn't always go according to plan... Andy Freeman is a brilliant and dedicated engineer who played a crucial role in the successful launch of the Zeus-M700. His expertise in spacecraft technology and attention to detail made him an indispensable member of the crew. Andy's passion for space exploration and his unwavering…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I think my biggest regret was giving this game the benefit of the doubt. Had I not been gifted this and spent my own money on it I'd be rather disappointed, especially with the price being $10 because I don't even think it's worth more than $1. You'd think that since there's only four puzzles, that's right, four that they'd be a little lengthy at least, right? That combined with the very description of the game saying: [quote=Whale Rock Games]In this game, you not only have to solve difficult…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pretty short and pretty easy puzzle. You can complete it with less than one hour (only 4, *four* puzzles). Simple mechanics, "copied-pasted" levels. It looks like some demo version, not full priced game. It's ok for one evening with discount 90+%. Weak. 3/10.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is puzzle game with 1st person perspective. It`s most close to such games as Portal, Talos Principle etc. The story in the game is pretty simple but the puzzles make you think. The graphics is quite modern. It`s powered by Unreal Engine. In general this is good and cheap game which will provide a good training for your brain.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I didn't have enough dynamics and action, everything is too monotonous - you move fire cubes around the spaceship and install them on buttons and lasers
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →I was interested in the sci-fi setting and puzzle-focused gameplay, but the overall experience felt rough.. The atmosphere and soundtrack are probably the strongest parts. Unfortunately , the gameplay itself didnt manage to hold my attention for very long 3/10
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Extremely easy puzzle game with lasers. I cannot underline the easy difficulty enough. Frankly I played this through only for the level of difficulty and achievements. My playtime includes the whole game from start to finish. Nice graphics and pleasant music. If being alone in a spacecraft and solving puzzles sound interesting and the price is right for you then give it a try. Though I must admit current price in EU (29,99€) is ridiculously high and no one should pay that for this. And the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The game's style is most reminiscent of Portal, but the puzzles here are certainly completely different, with their own interesting solutions.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →puzzel, game concept and plot is ok. But, shortest game I ever played (only 4 puzzles for 30 bucks!)
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This game is a bit like a Portal. There are also puzzles, there seems to be a plot. But to be honest, the plot is so-so, average. The graphics on the Unreal engine are very beautiful. An exciting journey in space. 8/10 deserved.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →For other game reviews, please [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/40640212/]follow us at What The Game? Space Accident is a rather remarkable puzzle solving game set on a large spacecraft, apparently headed for Callisto (notably an accurate target of a future manned mission because it is the only major satellite of Jupiter that isn't heavily radiated by Jupiter's harsh radiation belts). The puzzle solving involves mechanics that are fairly basic: directing beams of energy, object…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A fascinating game about a mission in space, where you have to advance along the storyline, solving various puzzles. The game has pleasant graphics, thoughtful game mechanics of objects and high-quality sound accompaniment.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A relaxing and atmospheric puzzle game with an interesting sci-fi setting. The laser mechanics and environmental interactions make you pay attention to details, while the story notes add extra depth. Great for players who enjoy thoughtful puzzles.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Really fun puzzle game with great retro sci-fi vibes. Figuring out each room's mechanics is super rewarding
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →This is a fantastic psychological horror experience where the top-notch graphics deliver a gritty and dark atmosphere that is perfectly complemented by an incredibly interesting and deep storyline that doesn't just rely on cheap jump scares to keep you engaged.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →a joyful mindbreaking game about solving puzzles in a colonizer's space ship after breakdfown, the story itself is a decent, but a gameplay is pretty good.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Fun sci-fi puzzle game with a great space atmosphere. Challenging puzzles, nice music, and an interesting story. Really enjoyed it!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Had I paid any money for this game, I would be furious. I spent a total of 33 minutes on this game. I would estimate 3 were spent adjusting my settings. In that time I fully completed the game. There are only four puzzles, and none of them offer any meaningful increase in difficulty or complexity. All relevant mechanics are introduced in the first puzzle. You adjust the colour-coded barrier, retrieve the laser redirecting cubes from behind the barrier, then awkwardly position them to hit the…
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →An interesting blend of Dead Space and Portal. It lacks a bit of momentum, but if you're looking for something meditative—yet not too nerve-wracking—this game fits the bill.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →SPACE ACCIDENT Positives: + Good graphics + Acceptable design + Nice sounds and music + Cool puzzles + A small storyline + FOV-adjuster + Achievements Negatives: - A bit too dark environment - Some weird behaving physics - Control mechanics are still not polished - Some unstable fps - Very short (over in under an hour) Conclusion: This is the third game in the series. If you havent played the first two, do that as well (Euphoria and Dofamine). This is just more of the same, but I…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →The space game is simple but engaging, with beautiful graphics and an interesting starry storyline.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A game with a pretty great atmosphere! The duration of the game is about 1-2 hours, which is quite short.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →i played an hour on this game and its not too bad yet even if the story is short the puzzles are not so bad.id say its an 6/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →we're shown the distant future, the plot is rather boring, but the atmosphere is good, and there's a sense of tension
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →interesting game, where the action continues on a spaceship, in space. I love games in this genre)
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Its Euphoria: Supreme Mechanics, but slightly nicer, still not worth it.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very short puzzle game, MINOR SPOILERS AHEAD There are 4 puzzle rooms in it. It's good that it's so short if the devs didn't have time or material to do more. The puzzles are pretty straightforward lock&key with some laser redirection. The story is quite straightforward as well, telling a familiar tale. It would have been easy to set up a final choice but it is'nt there. The controls are a little bit janky. No sprint button, box physics get stuck in the walls but slide too much. The…
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Not the best puzzle game I've played as of recent. Very janky game mechanics and unreliable physics.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →A cool puzzle game reminded me of a portal. Exceptionally lacking some kind of "crime", as in the portal, because of this, a feeling of loneliness is revealed and there is no motivation or even interest in passing. wonderful.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →a good game in which you need to think with your head. graphics quality even on a 1GB video card will look playable. another plus the game takes up little space on your hard drive. Playing this game, I really felt like a spaceship engineer. the game is suitable for those who liked "human fall flat" and "portal". It would be nice to get new levels or custom modifications for this game.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Very difficult puzzles, making you think outside the box to solve them. Once you've finished you realise it's actually a very short game. Thank you Ilona for the key!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Unfortunately, this is difficult for me. Failed to pass the second puzzle, though the game is beautiful and with a pleasant soundtrack. Tell me if someone knows decision.
negative · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Pretty fun little game with a cool atmosphere. The gameplay is simple but surprisingly engaging, and exploring the levels kept me interested. Definitely worth trying if you like short indie games
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →По скидке в принципе не плохая игра, прикольная головоломка с неплохой графикой и механиками. У кого есть лишние деньги советую взять. 8/10
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It’s somewhat similar to Among Us, but for the most part, the game is about puzzles; in my opinion, there was nothing particularly epic about it.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →It was short, but honestly, I enjoyed it. Wandering around the station, piecing things together, and just seeing where it all led was pretty fun.
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Addictive puzzles, carefully crafted levels and pleasant graphics, a game you can't put down. Play now! Very addictive!!!
positive · reviewer's own thumbsView post →Space Cube is a decent little evening game — you read notes, push cubes around, watch physics do its thing, kinda Portal lite. Some parts really make you think, though the running around gets a bit tedious. The dev has tons of room to grow here, hoping for more levels!
