Morningstar: Descent to Deadrock

This short point and click game appeared on Steam 10 years ago and still holds up well. I believe it was a flash game in a previous life. You play Powell travelling on the merchant ship Morningstar when you are unexpectantly pulled in by the gravity of an alien planet and crash. One person is killed, the captain badly injured and you are the only person who can save the day. Exploration outside the ship shows the remains of another larger ship with no survivors. Slowly you unravel what happened to them...and it is not pretty. The story arc was good and builds up plenty of intrigue, but all your questions won't be resolved at the end. Voiceovers were excellent. I loved the wordplay between Powell and the captain....their interaction made their characters very believable. You actually realise that one of them isn't particularly nice. If you need hints, click the radio and the captain's voice tells you what you need to do. Gameplay is pretty straightforward and hotspots show what to interact with. You get quite a few objects in your inventory. You have to be innovative and combine objects together to create functional systems. I fell down in this area and had to look up a guide now and then. Graphics are adequate as this is a re-mastered version. Cutscenes are good, but don't expect state of the art graphics. I quite liked the muted tones of the game. If you like sci-fi vibes and space themes and don't mind a short game, this is for you. Wait for a sale though.

Joguinho muito bom, lembra Alien prometheus e o game the invincible. Um grupo de astronautas tem sua nave caída em um planeta que aparentemente estava sozinho, cercado por mistérios e corpos de nossos colegas; temos que achar um meio de por a nave a funcionar e sair dali. O jogo apesar de curto e simples, é muito bem feito. ele deixa alguns furos na apresentação do lugar, mas nada que tire o charme dele. é interessante como games assim passam despercebidos. ele mesmo sendo um point and click, ele é muito interessante. costuma estar seguido em promoções, possui cartinhas steam e é fácil fazer 100%. fiquei meio bugado sobre o capitão Kovac; será que ele esta morto desde o inicio e é um delirio do nosso personagem?? ou a viga atravessada na barriga dele, não o matou mesmo? ou somos ele conduzindo a nave?

Just how I remember it from years ago. Paid for this one as a thank to the developer. Do take note that for ultrawide resolution, the game appear to be working but it's impossible to play since things will be appearing outside the field of view and impossible to click on them.

Good remake of an old flash game that I loved when I was a child. Voice acting is a bit dry, but tolerable.

I have fond memories of the original Flash version back in 2009, and playing this version gives me feelings of nostalgia that make me want to check up on the other Flash games I grew up with.

A good short adventure that focuses on the story, doesn't worry about leaving unanswered questions, and gives the player a bare minimum of information about the world in which the events take place, without trying to create an entire universe.

I remember loving the flash game version over a decade ago when I was just a young child. How time flies. The remake is good.

Well worth it on a sale to relive some armorgames nostalgia. Thanks, devs!

I good, fairly short point and click space themed adventure game.

yes it's an old flash game that used to be free but it's been updated with more content and better graphics.
