Ancient Space

Don't, just don't. Game starts ok. It looks like a homeworld clone with nice graphics and good story. It has cutscenes before each mission and it's nice. First 2-3 missions are good. 5th mission was hard to me because I didn't get the core game mechanic: [spoiler]Your main ship is your primary weapon.[/spoiler] Missions are good, pathfinding is bad. Game play loop looks like: you have unlimited resources, enemy spawns ships non-stop. You need to destroy key station to complete the mission. Pathfinding is one of your enemies. Don't think that it's easy to navigate in space. Your fleet can find some asteroid and start moving round till you see it and click a bit left or right to help your ships find how to bypass it :D Also you need to collect collectables (yellow dots). You can upgrade your ships before each mission in exchange for these collectables. It helps a lot. Actually I liked the game even with all these annoying pathfinding issues. I thought that I will write positive review till mission 14 and game breaking bug: You need to get your fleet to the last sector and clear it. It's ok. When you did it, you are getting a cutscene. You need to disarm 3 bombs in 5 minutes. The game gives you 2 bombs :D Really? I spent an hour to get there. Let's try to replay mission - 0 bombs and countdown timer. Let's try again... Finally, 3 bombs. Mission accomplished. Great. Mission 15. Final mission. I beat it and I wanted to know the end of the story. The game showed me windows message instead of finl cutscene: --------------------------- Oops! --------------------------- The game crashed. The crash report folder named "Crash_2026-08-15_181006" next to game executable. It would be great if you'd send it to the developer of the game! --------------------------- ОК --------------------------- P.S. Game developers stopped adding achievements on mission 10. Only 4.4% players have this achievement :D

Good

Good game. Crashes sometimes. Autosave doesn't work well.

I have a pretty new gaming laptop and the game still lags on low. It's quite boring as well

For me very booring. Bad gameplay, bad control and bad visual.

I think the reviews of the game is too harsh, it is a good game with a good story. Yes, there is alot of micro management with using the right ships against the right enemy. However I do enjoy that and you can always pause.
