Comment on Is there anything like a strategy version of KSP?

as a boardgame you can have a look at Leaving Earth or to something more complex like High Frontier 4 All Computer I played MArs Horizon, but I wasn’t a big fun, mostly because at the end I discover that I enjoy the planning but i also enjoy the handling of the ship

Can you elaborate on your critique of Mars Horizon? Someone else recommended it so I have been looking in to it.

I’ve played around 5h, not much, but as I recall it was exactly what you think if you want to design a space race game, you do something basic, get new technology and then try something more advanced. As you go progressing you can do more stuff and get farther away, but it was not fun. I only recall the feeling of “this are the type of mechanisms that sounds like fun but when you are doing it, it was not”.
There is a demo, you should try it.

Personally, I found the card game element interesting for a bit and then tedious and ultimately I went back to KSP. But I also wanted more direct control and other KSP elements that Mars Horizon didn’t quite scratch.
