Hardspace Shipbreaker falls under the category of a game that essentially emulates a job that would be horrible in real life, but is for some reason fun to play. As a kid, adults could not fathom why I was playing Harvest Moon, a game about growing crops and taking care of farm animals. I had no explanation to give in return. I sometimes feel that way about Shipbreaker as well, and it's literally my job to explain why I enjoy games.

**Pros**

The various ship systems and physics of space make taking them apart enjoyably dangerous

An interesting story of blue-collar workers trying to unionize

The creative freedom you have when approaching how to salvage each ship is fantastic

Learning your own methods of being more efficient is incredibly satisfying

Good variety of ships and subtypes

**Cons**

Shipbreaker's view of a future soulless corporation is already more real than I think the game realizes.

The debt system is largely a facade, there's no real penalty for failure.
