Blind output
When I started playing Out of Space, I wasn’t sure what to expect. I was just looking at a little game trailer showing a little robot cleaning up alien slime. To my surprise, this game was very exciting, especially if you can share it with the co-op.
Sometimes you just need to have a good spot.
The principle of the game is that you move alone or with a group of friends in a cooperative to a house in the room. But before you start living in it, it needs to be cleaned thoroughly. We have to go from room to room, take out the aliens and wash the sticky water they leave behind. The most important tool at your disposal is a bucket that you can fill with water and a mop. In addition, you can use various tools that you can find randomly in the rooms or that you buy in a shop. These include a pumpkin factory to keep your hunger knife in the compartment, resting furniture to control your energy meter, and various other tools to help you find a clean ship. Some tools need to be connected to a battery to work, others can easily be placed where you can find space for them.

A useful feature is that you can also disassemble these tools and reassemble them into other parts to prevent them from falling over or when they are strategically useful. The level is full when you install the battery into all outlets. This task is not as easy as it sounds, because the dirty alien threat on board is very evil. Rooms can quickly fill with aliens and their filthy slime. Strangers are different too. Some people have to be beaten out of a bucket with water before they are attacked with a mop. If they are stunned, you can throw them in a handy recycler for extra money. You can also use this device to remove garbage bags made when cleaning rooms. There are other ways to get rid of your enemies, but I think this is the best way to find them. Out of Space offers many creative solutions, and no game will ever be played in the same way.
For example, when my wife and I were playing on stage, we were almost done, there was only one place where we could get battery power. Unfortunately we neglected another part of the ship and before we knew it the space was overcrowded and all the work was unbuttoned. Although of course it is disappointing that it is an easy player memory that we will share for years to come.
It leaves behind dark areas that have been exposed to extraterrestrial attacks for too long and where a lot of clutter needs to be cleared away.
Animals in space
Each level is randomly generated in the beginning. You can choose a small ship, but as you play and progress, you’ll unlock new characters, tools and large ships. Too bad there is no story to give context to the crazy world created here. After all, you play like different animals in sweatshirts, for which only one story is needed. So I guess I’ll just have to figure something out for myself. So the animals have enough of the inhabitants of planet Earth and are on their way to the stars to start a new life, to discover in space that some things are just as dirty as humans.
The graphics of this game are quite simple in 3D sprites and very practical for families.
These rooms need to be cleaned properly.
Simple but fun mode
Although only one way of playing is offered here, the cost of playing is enormous. My wife and I got addicted to it pretty quickly. So much so that it led to a double dive purchase so that we could enjoy the game on our PC with a buddy in America. Unfortunately, the Switch version is only available locally.
Nothing beats a nice clean house.
The controls are quite simple, although the entry barrier may be a bit cold for some players. Curiously, only a player in the manual can test the controls. In the Switch version, the buttons used to perform certain actions are not unique. But with a bit of trial and error we did find out. This is not ideal, but at least the commands can be found in the options menu. Unfortunately, they cannot be reworked.
Wobble
In Out of Space, you have to think of a lot of Negroes. For example, if the objects in a room are overcrowded, it is difficult to find the object you need. It can be very stressful when strangers come to ruin the room. And when players are far apart, the map moves away, so it’s very hard to see where you are, it’s incredibly hard to see it in portable mode.
The biggest problem is that this game crashed several times, especially when we were quite far away in a level that was very unfortunate. However, this did not stop us from downloading them again to try our clean-up mission again. I think it’s what’s saving this place from space. The concept is so exciting and funny that we got through it in spite of these problems. I want this game to be determined.

Conclusion
Out of Space is a game set up in the cooperative. It’s an original and unique concept that I can’t say what I’ve experienced in the game so far.
There are a few tricks, but that doesn’t stop it from being a tool you can certainly use to create great player memories.
Phrase: I love a lot
Notes
Even though my review is over, it seems that the developers of Out of Space haven’t finished the game yet. From the description of the game on Nintendo’s website, it is clear that the developers are listening to feedback from players and intend to improve the game over time. Time will tell if that’s true, but I’ll keep an eye on it myself.
