Our take on Holy Potatoes! We’re in Space?!
The playful space premise receives much of the attention, but the game also requires ongoing crew, time, and resource management alongside tactical battles. Exploration is framed broadly across planets and galaxies, while the stated search centers on finding one missing grandfather.
What is Holy Potatoes! We’re in Space?!?
Manage the spaceship of sisters Cassie and Fay as they search dozens of planets for their grandfather, Jiji.
Exploration takes place across a changing universe populated by anthropomorphic vegetables and a storyline that varies between playthroughs. Tactical, turn-based battles let crews use weapons with special effects, while ship management covers hiring engineers, assigning crew, handling time and resources, and planning attacks against enemy vessels. Players can craft hundreds of weapons, explore planets and galaxies, and choose a Casual Mode. The game also includes localization options, a soundtrack with over 150 tracks, and a space cat. Its tone combines space adventure, resource management, tactical combat, and recurring vegetable-themed humor.
