Description
Space Rangers HD: A War Apart remasters and expands the world of the cult classic Space Rangers 2. The game is developed by the SNK-Games team in close cooperation with fans of the series.

The biggest of the improved features is a new scenario dedicated to the pirates threatening the galaxy. While the Coalition spends all of its resources to fight the Dominators (sentient machines who seek to eradicate all life), the pirates have united under the banner of a mysterious leader. Under this new master they have begun their own guerrilla war to seize power in the weakened Galaxy. Players can now choose with whom to deal, the Dominators or the pirates, or both at the same time. If you choose the latter path, you will receive new story and side quests, new goals and promotions. After winning one of the wars, you can either finish the game or continue playing to win another.

Players begin their pirate career as the lowest of the low, and will make their way to the top of the pirate hierarchy, completing story missions and learning new information about the organization and its unknown leader whose actions threaten the very existence of the Coalition of sentient species. All player actions affect what kind of place the Galaxy will be at the end, with the victorious Coalition that managed to overcome its enemies or with a collapsed alliance from both external Dominator and internal pirate pressures. The game has received a major technical overhaul in addition to the addition of new content. All of the main menu, loading screens, planet and space station vistas were reworked. Now you can choose a display resolution of up to 1920×1200 and planetary battles employ modern render technologies.
  • New pirate subplot - After completing any one of the story branches a player can either end the game, or continue playing to complete another branch. the player’s actions influence the entire Galaxy, while the balance in either of wars may be tipped not only by the player, but by AI actions as well. No two playthroughs will be the same.
  • Major technical overhaul - Display resolutions up to 1920×1200, multi-core processors, Windows® 7, and anti-aliasing in 3D planetary battles are now fully supported.
  • Other improvements include more than 10 new text adventures, 15+ planetary battle maps, 20+ government missions, unique non-story events, new equipment and micromodules, access to all hyperspace engagements from the main menu and more!

Perfect trading game!

If you like those games trading resources for money go for it. GOG is DRM free, and I haven't checked, but I believe the original Space Rangers had denuvo DRM and at the time was considered VERY intrusive, specially in this game. To me, the game was worth installing anyway. I suggest trying merchant with the missiles and the treton starting. It seems to give me a hard bite against everyone, just don't get over zealous early.

A classic space adventure

constant upgrades and an enjoyable gameplay loop. What sets it apart for me are the text adventures.

Unplayable due to tiny font and UI

The subject line says it all, basically. Even despite there being some font scaling options and lowering the resolution, in my setup with my visual ability, the UI is unusable before I even start playing. Too bad I bought this long ago - I would return it otherwise. I appreciate that there are many young developers with great sight and giant work monitors, so this issue might escape them, but in this day and age even many indie games manage to either design a UI big enough from the beginning or offer scaling options to increase text and UI size.
