How it feels

Surveying abandoned space stations for salvage feels methodical and tense, with careful movement and puzzle-like physics challenges in a lonely sci-fi setting.

What players say

Players describe Space Scaven as a solid little puzzle game with a Dead Space-like atmosphere. It offers 50 levels that introduce new mechanics at a steady pace, but some say it gets repetitive. The controls are called clumsy by a few, and the Java requirement can be tricky to set up.
