Gameplay
Orbiter is a game in which the astronauts are launched into space, can deploy, retrieve, and repair satellites, and take spacewalks in the Manned Maneuvering Unit in a space shuttle simulation.[1]
Reception
Frank Boosman reviewed the game for Computer Gaming World, and stated that "Orbiter is not a grip-the-sides-of-your-seat, sweat-running-down-your-forehead game. But if you really want to know how the Space Shuttle works or relive some of your childhood fantasies, then Orbiter is just the ticket."[1]
