Space Colony is a quirky and charming package that packs focus that previous sim games lack. While it’s clearly getting on in age, it’s still a timeless gem in some regards, and easy to recommend to those who have not yet played it.
Space Colony: Steam Edition is a good remaster of a classical sci-fi base builder game, with a special irreverent sense of humour.

A classic game to the present with a great deal of polish applied. In a way it is surprising just how well the gameplay has held up after twelve years.
Space Colony: Steam Edition is clearly reaching out from a time way back when video game design used to be more forgiving. It's got a lot of flaws, but it also has a ton of personality, and it offers a pretty solid space colony management experience, albeit one a little on the light side.
I expected more new content from the third edition of Space Colony, but it’s still a good game that will keep tycoon fans happy with numerous possibilities of colony expansion, varied game modes and a decent campaign. [08/2015, p.59]
Pleasant, engaging title, providing hours of gameplay. It's only a pity that the refreshed version offers little in terms of new elements.
Space Colony HD: Steam Edition is a re-release of a re-release that’s added a few cute little features but kept every single flaw from the original intact.
Summary Space Colony: Steam Edition is a remaster of the real-time base builder and strategy game from Firefly Studios, creators of the Stronghold series. In Space Colony you colonize to survive, designing intergalactic bases that keep your crew productive, happy and defended against hostile alien threats.
