Options When Choosing An Online Space Game

By Gaetano I. Hilpert


There are several different design studios working on the newest online space game releases which they hope will earn the praise of gamers who are looking for the next great video game. Space games share some similar features, but they can also be quite different since some are crafted to be role playing games, others are designed as strategy games, and others feature the action of shooter games. The setting of a science fiction space world may be something they all have in common, but for many games the similarities stop there as games branch off significantly from one another. If you are looking for a new space themed game that you will like, you should take your own personal gaming preferences into consideration.

An online space game designed as a role playing game, or RPG, will usually focus on developing your character's abilities and increasing their level. The level is measured using experience points or a similar method through which you are rewarded every time you defeat enemies or complete missions. Your character's strength and related stats increase when they reach a new level; in addition, they may be able to enter new areas in the game or wield weapons that were previously unavailable to them.

A strategy game will take the attention off your individual character and instead force you to manage multiple elements of the game simultaneously. An online space game designed as a traditional strategy game could ask you to develop an alien planet into a thriving metropolis by gathering resources, constructing buildings, and preparing defenses. There is lots of incentive for clever gamers to come back to strategy games again and again because there are lots of different approaches you can take to the same missions and objectives.

You should plan to be challenged, thrilled, and pushed to your limits when playing a shooter game that features fascinating science fiction themed weapons. Flight based shooter games take the battles to the cockpits of amazing spacecraft with powerful weapons while battles are much closer and more personal in first person shooters in which your character uses hand-held weapons.

One of the greatest aspects of an online space game is also one that applies to all games that fall into this large category: you can engage in multiplayer gameplay and work together with other players who are also logged in to the game. Working along with other players in these games brings an exciting element that you will not find in single-player games.
