Action Stations 3D Space Mission is a 3D puzzle game for the Mac. In it, you control an astronaut who is sent to different space stations that are broken. There are sixteen different stations that you need to fix. You do this by navigating the structures from one end to the other, where there is a space ship docked waiting for you. The space stations have a robot that has malfunctioned as well, and it will seek to kill you before you make it to the end of each level.
The controls are simple to learn, but not easy to master. You use the W, A, S, and D keys to move, and the mouse to look around. You have a jetpack that you can use to jump and fly around. Gravity is limited because the stations are at a lower orbit than usual. Your air supply and the fuel in your jetpack are limited, so you have to use them wisely. You have a laser gun that you can use against the robot or asteroids that get in your way.
Action Stations is not the best puzzle game that I have tried. The levels weren't too hard and the controls were a bit awkward in my opinion. The overall game design, including level design, leaves a bit to be desired as well.
