There is a depth to the creations that can be made in Space Engineers that other "builder" games do not have. There are so many functional blocks (reactors, missile turrets, refineries, thrusters, cockpits, gyros) that the possibilities are seemingly endless. Be prepared to construct functional, operational machines.

Some of my own favorite experiences:

I once hijacked a large military ship on autopilot, evading its turrets and defenses. When I altered the ship's course, a bomb detonated near the cargo hold. I still kept it until I could hijack another.

I once built a huge grind pit that I could drive large ships into so that I may quickly break them down and collect their resources.

I drove a large ship into another. The impact points on both ships disintegrated and the surrounding infrastructure looked pretty bad afterward.
