Incredible spaceflight sim/rpg/MMO. Has been my go-to game for about five years now.

Nice, relaxing game. The orbital mechanics are fairly realistic (think Kerbal Space Program VERY lite), but simplified enough that you won't need to learn too much to be able to move your satellite around and make it do what you want. Missions generate, and you task one (or more) of your fleet of satellites to carry out the mission. You need to worry about heat generation, battery power, fuel and wear & tear. There is a tech-tree of sorts, where you can spend in-game currency on researching new upgrades and tools. Your current satellites can either be pushed into a decaying orbit or doced with a space station for repair, refuel, and upgrades.

All in all a slower paced resource management game that I'm really enjoying.

Used to love this game, now it crashes randomly every five minutes. Searched the internet, tried every single suggestion, even contacted Ubisoft and did everything they told me. Still crashes, and with the "you can't save in the middle of a mission" mechanic, the game is worthless to me. Farcry 4? Yeah, not supported for my operating system either (Windows 10). Buy-buy Ubisoft, I'll take my money elsewhere.
