The Best Space Exploration Games For Your PC<\/strong>


Space was never the final frontier for video game developers. Indeed, the ability to create worlds far beyond life on this planet has been a key component of gaming since its earliest days. We’ve seen it since the early 1980’s, with legendary arcade cabinets like\u00a0Space Invaders<\/em>,\u00a0Asteroids<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Galaga<\/em>\u00a0to name but a few. If graphics were basic and sound composed of bleeps and buzzes, it mattered little when the excitement of shooting aliens could be had.

However, not all space games were shooters. Coders perhaps more inspired by\u00a0Star Trek<\/em>\u00a0than\u00a0Star Wars<\/em>\u00a0set about creating infinite galaxies to be explored and traversed. The longer duration meant these were more for home systems \u2013 arcade games demanded coins be shoveled in frequently and long, absorbing games didn’t fit the format.

Elite<\/em>\u00a0is often cited as the launchpad, taking the 8-bit machines by storm in 1984. These days, there’s much more power in your phone than the retro systems ever packed and the gateway to new universes can be found in your pocket.\u00a0Space Leaper: Cocoon<\/em>\u00a0is a\u00a0recent favourite<\/a>\u00a0of ours, with the card-based RPG nature of the game a new twist on the formula. The\u00a0online slots on Ladbrokes<\/a>\u00a0includes titles such as Stargate and Spaceman as the space exploration theme diversifies further. Even the ubiquitous\u00a0Angry Birds<\/em>\u00a0got in on the action as they chased pigs round the solar system in\u00a0Angry Birds Space<\/em>. Of course, there’s more power in your PC than there is in your phone and truly immersive space exploration can be found without ever leaving your desk. Let’s take a look at three of the best.
