An "okay" space sim from an onscure developer

User Rating: 7.5 | Tarr Chronicles PC

I know Tarr got 4.0. I think it's a little bit better. It may be short, but being able to customize your fighter is a great idea, and its fun to build your own fighter systems. While the story can be tough to follow, its sets a gritty feel for the game, adding some atmosphere. The combat is frantic and tough, but it can be hard to beat the enemy starfighters which seem to have turrets. (No fair!)

Some of the missions can be annoying, but give it a few tries and you'll beat it. This game has some good ideas (the customization again), but its the implementation that matters. Buy it if you want some quick action, but don't expect a super long and meaningful game. If you want a non-linear sim, you might want to check out X3. Sure, Gamespy gave it a low review when it first came out, but things are different now.
