HardspaceShipbreaker's intricate reverse engineering gameplay reinforces its larger messages about worker's rights.
Hardspace: Shipbreaker MSRP $34.99 Score Details DT Recommended Product “Hardspace: Shipbreaker is an intricate anti-puzzle game that delivers a searing commentary on corporate abuse.” Pros Cons Hardspace: Shipbreaker may be a science-fiction game set in outer space, but it’s as down to Earth as a Woody Guthrie song. If you don’t walk away from it questioning whether or not you’re getting treated fairly at work, there’s a chance you might be one of the bad bosses that it dissects.
But like most jobs, there are always complications — and that’s where the game finds tension in tedium. For one, the entire game takes place in zero gravity, which can get admittedly nauseating. When I carve a panel off a ship, it’ll start drifting away in space. That leads to almost slapstick work mishaps where I’ll grab a stray airlock panel with my trusty gravity gun … only to yank it too aggressively, causing it to bash into my helmet, cracking it open and leaving me for dead.
Hardspace: Shipbreaker’s accidental injuries hardly feel more fictional than the multi-generational reality I’ve seen firsthand. It’s a shining example of how video games can use the unique power of interactivity to strengthen narrative. By putting players in precarious situations, Hardspace: Shipbreaker lets us experience tense working environments from a safe distance. Even when the accidents are absurd, Blackbird makes its point about the importance of worker protections clear.
