Citizens of Space is a continuation of the humorous 2015 RPG titled Citizens of Earth. The devs of the original, Eden Industries, are responsible for the development of the title.
The main character of the game is the new Earth Ambassador to the Galactic Federation of Planets. On his first day in his new position, the protagonist has to face a real problem - his homeworld disappeared without a trace. There is nothing left for our character but to find the perpetrators of all the confusion and bring Earth to its place, otherwise, he can kiss his new job goodbye.
In Citizens of Space, the action is shown from bird's eye view. As we play, we travel across the surfaces of different planets, differentiated in of appearance and the creatures that inhabit them, as well as the dangers lurking in wait for the Ambassador. Just like in the first installment of the series, the hero is not alone, because during the adventure he recruits the title Citizens. There are forty characters, each of them equipped with individual weapons and skills. Combat also plays an important role here, both against smaller adversaries and the much more powerful bosses. Although the clashes take place in turn-based mode, they are based on dynamic mini-games checking our reflexes and dexterity. As we move forward, we develop the Ambassador and Citizens, thereby increasing their combat potential.
Visuals of Citizens of Space adopt the colorful, cartoonish style known from the original.

Citizens of Space is the kind of game that doesn't need to do much outside-the-box to keep you
Reno Gazette-Journal: 7 / 10 by Jason Hidalgo
Citizens of Space is a fun old-school-style RPG with a nice recipe that improves on Citizens of Earth, but could’ve used a bit more time in the oven. The Paper Mario-style combat is a strong point, especially with the plethora of strategies you can use to mix things up. The alien and enemy designs are also interesting and look great visually. The game’s reliance on fetch quests and RNG encounters, however, can get taxing and its attempts at humor also can be hit or miss. Add some issues with glitches and you have a game that’s solid overall but doesn't quite reach its full potential.

Citizens of Space is an amusing comedic RPG that is very rough due to technical issues. Perhaps after the bugs get ironed out it can be recommended, but in its current state it just has too many flaws that will distract. The side-quests are amusing as varied enough to break up the completely linear main plot and one could easy find these optional diversions to be the most entertaining piece to this package. Anyone who enjoyed Citizens of Earth is certain to get a lot of enjoyment from Citizens of Space.
