Rymdkapsel is a slow, meditiative strategy game set in space. It builds upon the legacy of Martins earlier games by requiring minimal user input, but that doesn't make you a passenger. It's rather the opposite as you are tasked with the higher level problem of building the best possible station and ordering your minions around. The game originally launched on the Vita in early May 2013, and later had a wider release on iOS and Android in August.
