Universe Sandbox

Cosy, great for unwinding

A space sandbox where you create, alter and destroy planets, stars and entire galaxies with realistic gravity, collisions and climate simulation. It is about free experimentation and wonder rather than goals or story.

Universe Sandbox Legacy

Vast, open spaces

A space sandbox simulator where you build and wreck planets, stars and galaxies, tweaking gravity and orbits and smashing bodies together. There are no goals, just open-ended experimentation with a strong educational feel.

Deeeer Simulator

Accessible and relaxed

You play a deer loose in a small town, free to either wander peacefully or wreak absurd havoc on everything around. Its silly humor and physics-driven destruction are the main draw.

Everything

Cosy, great for unwinding

This meditative sandbox lets you become any object in the universe, from animals to planets to galaxies, and drift freely through it all. Lectures by philosopher Alan Watts accompany a goal-free, contemplative journey.

SpaceEngine

Sci-fi setting

A realistic space simulator and planetarium that lets you freely fly through a procedurally generated universe built on real astronomical catalogs, landing on planets and even traveling through time.

Goat Simulator 3

Lots to discover

An absurd sandbox playground where you wreak havoc as a destructive goat, enjoy physics mishaps and goof around with up to three friends. The fun comes from experimenting, gags and parodies rather than challenge.

Astroneer

Sci-fi setting

As an astronaut you explore colorful planets, reshape terrain like clay with your terrain tool, and build bases with automated production chains. A relaxed mix of discovery, gathering and tinkering, solo or in co-op.
