About the Game
A full remake of the sci-fi survival horror classic, Dead Space delivers tense space horror with Very Positive Steam reviews.
Dead Space is a sci-fi survival horror title that blends action and adventure. This version is a full remake of the classic from developer Motive, published by Electronic Arts. You play as Isaac Clarke, an ordinary engineer sent to repair the mining ship USG Ishimura. He finds the crew slaughtered and his girlfriend Nicole missing somewhere aboard, so the job quickly turns into a fight for survival.
The core loop is about exploring a hostile ship alone. You search for Nicole and the truth behind the disaster while fighting off the necromorphs, the hostile creatures that threaten you at every turn. Your weapons are the engineering tools you carry, and you reuse and upgrade them to take enemies down with precise, creative aim. Every encounter also tests your nerve, because keeping your sanity is part of the challenge.
The setting is a desolate spaceship with detailed rooms and workspaces. The remake rebuilds this environment with higher-fidelity visuals and 3D sound, so the eerie atmosphere of the empty ship feels close. The story unfolds through the final logs left by crew members and through the few survivors you can interact with, gradually revealing the dark secret behind the USG Ishimura incident.
What stands out is the way the remake leans into atmosphere. The description promises uninterrupted, unpredictable moments of tension, and the sound and visual upgrades are meant to make the ship feel real. For players who want a horror story told through exploration and discovery, that focus is the main draw.

Who It Is (and Is Not) For
Recommended For
Fans of survival horror who want a polished, modern take on a classic sci-fi thriller will get the most out of Dead Space. It suits players who enjoy a single-player experience built on tension and atmosphere, with a story they piece together through logs and survivors.
Not Recommended For
If you prefer multiplayer or co-op, this is a poor fit, since it is single-player only. Players who are sensitive to disturbing content should also think twice, because the game carries an adult content flag on its Steam page.
What the Steam Reviews Say
Dead Space carries Steam's Very Positive label, which Steam Taiwan displays as 極度好評, and about 90 percent of its reviews are positive. That is a strong signal for a remake, backed by tens of thousands of reviews rather than a small handful.
Steam's review labels are calculated from the percentage of positive reviews and the total number of reviews, so a high percentage with a large volume is generally more reliable than the same percentage from a small sample. With tens of thousands of reviews, the score reflects a broad cross-section of players, although individual experiences with horror pacing and difficulty can still vary.

All prices here are Taiwan Steam store prices in NT$. Dead Space is currently NT$ 1599, which is also its regular price, so it is not on a tracked discount right now.
Our lowest recorded paid price is NT$ 159, logged on June 19, 2026, which was the first day in our record. Discounts have shown up often in our records, and the deepest reached 90 percent off. We have not recorded any free-to-keep period for this game.
Our price record is still short, so this verdict is tentative. The current price matches the highest price we have recorded, so it is not a bargain by our history. Because discounts have appeared often, waiting for the next sale could pay off, though we cannot promise when it will come.
