I don't usually write review, but a game that eaten off so much of my time certainly deserves it.

Space Engineers is a block building sanbox game happening in a not-so-distant future. You can design, build, program and destroy in any way you so desire in 0-G environnement or on planets. The laws of physics in the game, even though not 100% realistic, is realistic enough so that you can calculate and predict the results and outcomes of your shenanigans. The in-game C# programming enhance your creations capabilities and there's a HUGE quantity of community created content for entertainement and inspiration. Keep in mind that this is alpha and at this point lots of bugs plagues the game. If you can overcome the bugs and laws of physics bended sometimes, this title is a no-brainer.

Pros and cons at this moment:
Pros

-Unlimited replayability
-Huge workshop community
-In-game programming (if that's your thing)


Pros related to the fact that it's currently an alpha game

-Dedicated developpers. I'm 100% convinced we will get an entertaining finished product.
-Fast paced updating


Cons related to the fact that it's currently an alpha game

-Lots of bugs
-Gameplay balance needs love
-Optimization needs love
-Multiplayer barely playable


Cons

-Quite capable system required
-Laws of physics not 100% accurate (104 m/s speed cap is the worst)


A must have for any sandbox and SciFi fan
