Space Haven is a strategy game in which you lead the crew of a spaceship in their colonization of the unexplored regions of space. The game offers a deep, complex gameplay that presents many challenges for players and requires them to make far-reaching decisions. The game was developed by the independent studio Bugbyte, which gained notoriety with the development of the Battlevoid series.
Game mechanics
In Space Haven it is your task as a player to manage the worries and needs of your crew during space everyday life.
This includes not only the health of the crew, but also the satisfaction of their needs, such as oxygen, sleep, and protection from hazardous materials. In addition, the infrastructure of the ship must be maintained and the various challenges during the flight also have to be solved. For this you assign tasks to the members of your crew according to their abilities and qualities in order to ensure a smooth process. Keeping an eye on the morale of the crew is also very important, because individuals daydream, eat too much or too little, and some are simply exposed to excessive stress. All of this can lead to catastrophe and consequently to the collapse and even the death of parts or the whole crew, which would result in the failure of the mission. During the game, players also have to upgrade the spaceship itself. Thanks to the isometric perspective, you always have an overview and plan your next steps, such as construction or improvement of adjacent sectors, from cladding to individual cabins to rooms that can have different functions. It is up to you to determine the design and functionality of a room.
Your creativity is only limited by the availability of the raw materials needed for an upgrade or extension.
On your journey through the vastness of space you also meet other groups and even aliens. Sometimes the encounter is peaceful, sometimes it is necessary to take a position and fight. This includes battles with spaceships.
Game mode
Space Haven is exclusively for single players and offers an extensive campaign that guarantees hours of fun.
Graphic style
Space Haven uses 2D graphics in pixel art style. This style is reminiscent of old releases from the UFO series, but is technologically much further advanced. The resolution is much higher and the maps and characters show much more details.
