What is SimpleRockets?

In this single-player, 2D space simulation, you assemble rockets and powered rovers from individual parts, then launch from planets across a solar system. You tackle challenges such as fuel-efficient orbits and moon landings, or use a persistent sandbox to build stations and bases across multiple launches.

For you if...

  • +you enjoy learning rocket science through hands-on experimentation
  • +you prefer setting your own goals in a sandbox

Not for you if...

  • −you want fully three-dimensional spacecraft building and flight
  • −you expect a story-driven campaign rather than open-ended construction

What players say

85% of 331 reviews are positive

Players praise the approachable construction and lower hardware demands compared with Kerbal Space Program. Some criticize the limited part selection, while a PC reviewer points to flight controls spread across opposite screen edges.
