Void War

Better than FTL and still getting huge updates. Looking forward to the future.

solid FTL clone in the flavor of 40k. 10/10

Love this freaking game, continue the space crusade.

Would prefer to give it a "meh" rating. Enemies are all very samey, very little variation (ship layouts are exactly the same between ships, so you often end up fighting the same boring enemy 5x in a row), some kind of interesting features but they don't necessary play super well with the FTL formula. Basically, the game is an exact copy of FTL with some missing features & 1 or 2 added features, less content, and less balance. Would only recommend as a "I have literally nothing else to play and I want a lazy game" kind of vibe (and btw when I say exact, it literally feels like FTL with a low-medium quality overhaul mod). Not very much actual challenge in the game, only difficulty comes from the amount of overpowered weapons that the enemies have that pierce shields, so they're uncounterable. A lot of the fights are just trying to out-shoot enemies before their shield piercing weapons kill you, not very much tactic to it. The price feels a bit much for how much work they've actually had to put in. They could easily have vibecoded a FTL clone and then just slapped some different art on top of it.

the ftl successor you've been waiting for

Its a better version of FTL in every way. If you like grim dark inspired lore get it, if you like FTL get, or just get it because it is great. The devs have keep steady updates rolling out which has kept me coming back regularly. Its a cheap game that I have played for over 40 hours. Just do it.
