Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
This is great game from the 90s, one of my favorite space sims. I would love to finally play it through but I couldnt find any way to get it working. Crashes when I go to instant action.
Also it is said to be dependant on joystick. Not sure if its possible to get gamepad to work since I couldnt start it even.
I tried also the previous game in the series but it has the same issues.
Unfortunately I can't recommend this game at any price because there's no way to customize the controls. This is an unforgivable mistake for a space flight game.
The best space opera single player ever (multi available) . Work very well on Win 7 64. Interesting free goodies but more mods would be appriciated (location point, ...) . The last website with mods for this games is closed.
The original Independence War is known as one of the best space sims ever. The use of a Newtonian physics system for flight and technologies that seemed possible set it above the rest of the genre which always seemed to dissolve into an arcade shooter. The downside was a steep learning curve and a game that was hard to master.
Edge of Chaos maintains the tradition but adds an open world. It's epic story is aided by space combat that holds true to the original's flight model, but has been made more approachable for the general public.
