Totally fun game of space exploring and battling pirates and other enemies to get scrap (in game currency per se), guns, crew and special items. Its hard. Its supposed to be hard. The further you get along the many paths to your goal, it gets harder and the stakes get higer. Simple to play, but difficult to master. This game is one you can pick right up and come back to again and again, as each time you play it it will be different and different situations and ways to die will show up in different ways.


For 10 bucks this game is totally worth it. Dealing with different situations requires different tactics. Is the med bay down? can I risk sending crew to fight a fire, or should I open up bay doors and suck out all the O2 in that part of the ship to put it out? Dang it, were we just boarded? All I have are weaklings in this crew. Shields are down, shut down the engines and divert, this guy is breaching our hull! This is just a taste of the fun complexity and quick decisionmaking you have to deal with in this game.
