Gameplay is great. The Story is bad and tiresome and cannot be skipped.

i loved this game so much, such a good story to it and fun physics, plus the main benefit of being able to dismantle huge ships down to nothing. there is nothing i can think of that is bad about it. would rate 100/10

The goal is to dismantle spaceships as efficiently as possible using a range of upgradable tools, then sell the materials for profit. You can obviously die, and there are several game modes, including some genuinely difficult ones. The ships also evolve as you progress, becoming bigger, more dangerous, and much more complex to take apart. The story has been really enjoyable so far and makes me want to see what happens next. The setting is basically pure corporate slavery mixed with extreme capitalism. Some players may find the gameplay repetitive, but personally, I disabled the timer. It lets me chill, listen to the music, carefully dismantle everything, beat my previous score, and aim for 100% completion. A very pleasant surprise. Recommended.

Play it, do it for the story, do it for the gameplay. It's a good time. I'm sitting here not having played for over a year looking for something to play and saw this on my list I'm diving back in.

Was very surprised by Shipbreaker. I really enjoyed the mechanics and game loop. The different dangers and steps to salvage without dying were fun to deal with. The story added some depth, but I think this game universe has a lot more potential. Would love more stories about LYNX vs the workers. Its timely. Its easy to see the love the devs put into this one. Worth a playthrough or two for sure.
