ISS PC Games

It's amazing how large the ISS has grown. I can remember playing PC-AT games back in CGA that simulated building a profitable space station.

My favorite Space Station games from the 1980s:

  • Project Space Station by Larry Holland was the first such game I can remember. You had to purchase, launch and position the station elements. You had to pick compatible crews and insure that you had enough power and radiation to handle everything. Like many of these builder simulation games, keeping the balance in the black was tricky.

  • Space MAX or Space M+A+X was less of a graphical game, it seemed to go into a DOS-like screen at certain points in the game. Yet I seem to recall the ability to assemble modules.
