The Message from Deep Space is an odyssey of puzzles. Take the role of the mission's Translator, working alongside a scrappy band of scientists, and venture headfirst into the world of deciphering an alien language --- completely from the ground up.
Set in 1973, Earth is the recipient of a meteorite that broadcasts radio waves. In the role of the mission's Translator, the player is responsible for designing responses to the meteorite's transmissions, which, if correct, will elicit new messages from the meteorite. Only through this radio wave dialogue will patterns, words, syntax, and meaning all take form, leaving but one question:
What is it the aliens want to say?
Translate an alien language
Learn about an alien civilization
Interface with a retro computer
Manage a user-driven dictionary
Design radio transmissions by frequency
Collaborate with scientists that respond to your actions
+1000 in-game dialogues
+30 minutes OST
+30 hours of gameplay
Inspired by The Golden Record aboard the Voyager I space probe, The Message from Deep Space takes a realistic approach to deciphering an interstellar message. Beginning with the limited universal constants available to technologically advanced civilizations, the message spans a range of real-world fields of math & science. Decoding the message is tough, but with the support of the game's meticulous linguist, the single-minded computer programmer, and the affable astronomer, it is a challenge fit for anyone with Curiosity and Perseverance.

absolutely brilliant, wonderfully paced, perfectly challenging and satisfying, beautiful and at times heartwrenching. an absolutely amazing game
Like unraveling an alien mistery. It's funny, it's clever, it makes you think. Some levels are really easy, then you're hit by 3 new signals and you're left scratching your head. Trying to identify where the pattern of a new signal fits is like assembling a puzzle of meaning. I wouldn't call this a Zach-like game, but some knowledge of math or programming absolutely helps, especially early on. What an awesome game.
I can't put the game down. I have to force myself to go to bed. The puzzles are that perfect mix of complicated but doable; satisfying to solve but bewildering at times. Some responses are just guesses until you see the unknown signal used in a variety of ways and it suddenly clicks.
Brilliant idea. Great execution. Recommended for anybody who enjoys puzzle games. I didn’t expect the game to be almost 40 hours long or so complex. Easily worth the price and my favorite game of 2026.
This might be my game of the year. It is so earnest and unapologetic in its deep, deep love and respect for knowledge and science and humanity and life and intelligence and consciousness and the universe and just pure, physical, material reality. It almost feels like playing a Ted Chiang story, and not just because of Story of Your Life. Every step of the progression feels so realistic and natural without a single leap in logic or contrivance or deus ex machina. The characters are extremely lovable and full of heart, and by the end I truly felt a sense of genuine community and camaraderie with all of them—even the one hundreds of light-years and thousands of generations away. If you at all have any love for language or science or the universe and all that live in it, I can't recommend this game enough.
