Is Small Spaces worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Home-design fans who prefer furnishing prepared apartments rather than drawing layouts
- Creative players who want a relaxed decorating game with guided objectives

Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players who need to create apartment floor plans from an empty layout will reach the fixed-space limitation immediately
- Designers expecting to import custom models or textures will hit the lack of personal asset importing
- Players seeking survival, combat, or resource-management systems will find the focus stays on interior decoration
Our take on Small Spaces
The bounce point arrives when a decorating brief ends: apartment layouts are fixed, so players cannot yet move into full floor-plan creation. A second wall appears for users who want to bring in personal models or textures, since the available content comes from the game’s own catalog.
What is Small Spaces?
Design and decorate existing apartments in New York, Berlin, and Tokyo.
The game includes nine apartments with distinct layouts, each tied to objectives, a story, and residents such as students or couples. Furnishing tools cover kitchens, lighting, plants, wall panels, materials, and more than 500 furniture and decoration items. Completing objectives unlocks additional tools, materials, and furnishings. A first-person mode lets players inspect completed rooms while lighting changes from morning through nighttime. Current spaces use fixed layouts rather than custom floor plans, and importing personal models or textures is not available. The game is presented as a relaxing creative experience focused on home design.
