About this game

rymdkapsel is a meditative strategy game set in space. Take on the challenge of building the best possible station by commanding your minions and exploring the galaxy around you.

Imagine a strategy game where you don't have to worry about selecting units or mounting attacks on your enemies, but rather can focus on building the best base possible.

That's what rymdkapsel is all about.

"Rymdkapsel feels tailor-made for iOS in both form and function, and its elegant, subtle constituent parts nest within one another as neatly as its four-block tetrominos snap together along a space station corridor."
- 5/5 stars, Joseph Leray, toucharcade.com

"Some games nearly make me miss my subway stop. Some games tempt me to keep on playing them while I'm walking down the street. This is one of them."
- Stephen Totilo, kotaku.com

"The game punishes the greedy, and rewards the prudent. If you’re attentive, you’ll notice that there’s actually a happy medium between the two: optimal efficiency."
- Ryan Rigney, wired.co.uk

"Rymdkapsel combines spatial puzzling, tower defence and base-building into a brilliantly coherent and stylish whole."
- Christian Donlan, eurogamer.net

Ratings and reviews

1st run, tutorial and building broke after 3rd msg (couldnt even begin placing). endgame is unplayable, over 20 growing enemy waves which return in 2 SECONDS vs SLOW AND RANDOM minions, NO PROPER PRIORITY, research does NOTHING (EFFECTS ARE INSIGNIFICANT FOR HELP), its SLOW too, its FAR, AND no more nearby particle fields... its just a really bad time killer by force, not by experience and choice of fun. you have to know the dev strat to win WHICH RUINS DEFINITION GAMEPLAY(its just a puzzle...)

Pretty fun, but a few frustrating things really soured me to the experience. Firstly and mainly, the fact that minions will choose inefficient task orders/paths (despite using the "priority" command) has snatched defeat from the jaws of failure multiple times, and that's just annoying. Secondly, why does the zen mode not have the unlimited particle source option that the + mode does? If I choose zen mode, I want to have fun building and not be forced to run out of resources.

It's a fun relaxing game. Except for two things. 1 the difficulty ramps up a bit to fast. And 2: THE SALVAGE BUTTON IS RIGHT WHERE MY THUMB TOUCHES TO SCROLL MOVE AROUND. It's on the left hand side and every time I touch, and then go to move without clicking off. I delete the build. No" are you sure you want to salvage?," or undo button. Just gone. I like to plan ahead it have everything blue printed. But if i click on the wrong thing and scroll away, half my plans just disappear.
