Science Fiction Games
Science fiction games let us imagine different futures—some are fun, and some are a little scary. Ever since Space Invaders, people have played games about fighting aliens and thinking about life beyond our planet. These games sparked many new ideas.
As technology improved, games told bigger and better stories. In the 1990s, games like System Shock let players find secret technology. In the 2000s, Mass Effect took us across the galaxy to save the universe. Now, with stronger computers, we can explore space, visit new worlds, and make choices that change what happens in the game.
Sci-fi games often have challenges that match the story. You might have to fix your oxygen, solve computer puzzles, or lead a team against aliens. The choices you make can change the game's world, like deciding what is right or how to treat robots.
Science fiction games can be about many things—space trips, life in future cities, robot battles, or even real science. But all of them help us learn more about ourselves as we explore the unknown.
