Starcom: Unknown Space

Solid 30 hours of boldly going with a fully customizable ship while firing epic beam weapons and using jump gates. - 4.8/5 for space exploration (-0.2 for semi-invisible [strike]walls[/strike] dark nebula that keeps you from boldly going to certain places), - 2/5 for space opera (the plot is fine, but the crew is just kissing you up the whole time) - 4/5 for space adventures (some mission objectives are pretty obscure and difficult to figure out even after backreading logs)

Damn it. they did it! They made the SECOND game still entertaining and engaging. I played and completed the original game with most if not all quests and achivements. When new game came out I was sure it will be the same gameplay and will therefore be... boring. Well... it is same gameplay. But its still super engaging. Its clearly done with passion and attention to detail. New story is interesting. New features are neat. In short: this feels like your own Star Trek Voyager. You explore. And explore. And continue untill its 2AM and you still think to yourself "one more star..."

Good top down 2d space shootey exploring game! Can be finished in ~25-30 hours if you want to

its good.

It tells an interesting story. Gameplay is nothing special, but at least it works pretty well. The ship building is pretty fun. Wish there was more interaction with the crew members outside of just them randomly saying something or responding to a situation. Overall a decent game, grab it on a sale.

good

I bought this game after watching Jingles play it a few times. I am very satisfied. I wish I had bought the prequel when it was bundled and on sale too.
