Starcom: Unknown Space

Just an enjoyable space game, and i really like the shipbuilding mechanic so far, but i've prob only just dipped my toe into the mechanic so far.

Amazingly fun game! Worth the money

A cozy and relatively brief exploration and light combat experience. Lots of fun. Secret ending is a little less pointed out than one would like. I enjoyed and will almost certainly purchase any sequel. Generally an upgrade from the previous game, especially given the crew. Also extremely well-written.

This is close to capturing the magic of StarControl but it isn't quite ambitious enough. The Game Mechanics are mostly solid and a big step up, but the story and the aliens were kinda bland and the endings are disappointing. That said, I enjoyed the majority of my time in the game, but perhaps not enough to replay it in the future. Get this on sale and it's a great bargain.

This turned out to be a really cool game worth the price, which is rare for this old gamer from the 80`s. I feel like I`m getting to the end of the story though which is a bit disappointing as there wont be anything left to do after. I only wish it were 10x bigger with more factional warfare and bigger variety of EVERYTHING! Its like the classic arcade Asteroids game mixed with StarFlight from the Sega Genesis, playing it of the hardest difficulty is actually the most fun. I would preorder Starcom 2 just because this one was as good as it is compared to so much disappointment over the years from new games.

Really addicting. It has ship design that's involved enough to make significant aesthetic and mechanical choices, without getting too complicated and frustrating. Exploration is rewarding and interesting, and combat is straightforward enough to learn quickly. I can't wait to see what's near that next star! Highly recommend!

Great game. I can really recommend it. The story is good too and the battles are fun. I recommend to play it on hard right from the start.

Nice game. If the game was still developped these things I would like to be added / changed: - Voice to the NPCs. Text is rather small and not so easy to read always. - Maybe some other voice sfxs like reactions to failed attempts to make it more clear what happens. - I find especially the map controls rather problematic. I constantly press the wasd keys to attempt to scroll the map but it controls the ship instead.

good game for the price
