The game

“ESA Space Quest” is the video game where players step into the shoes of an astronaut and enter the International Space Station, choose an avatar, and access missions that allow them to explore space and get to know the environments of the International Space Station.

We created five missions that show players the areas inside the Space Station, and inside each room they can complete a mission such as: taking pictures of stars and planets from the Cupola, delivering a meal to the astronaut, a musical memory game dedicated to caring for and growing plants in the ISS, a gear-fitting game, and a mini-game set outside the space station.

Goals

“ESA Space Quest” is not only a video game that describes the purpose of the various rooms within the ISS, but it is also a video game supporting the promotion of the ESA Ugly Sweater: a line of Christmas gadgets in pixel art on sale in ESA's e-commerce store.
