Description
There are a million worlds in the galaxy. Only one of them is Home.

It was supposed to be a short test run - a quick flight to Alpha Centauri and back. But when mankind’s first experimental jump drive goes wrong, a misfit crew finds itself trapped on the wrong side of the universe - alone, injured, falling apart. The only way back… is through.

Explore an endlessly shifting universe. Form alliances with strange aliens, from the noble Wolphax Knights to cruel-minded Ilitza slaver empire. Harness your crew’s skills in everything from research to archeology to diplomacy. Learn the laws of an often hostile universe, and make tough decisions that may change it forever. Do whatever it takes to get back to Earth.

The Long Journey Home combines the endless freedom of space with a new open questing system that always leaves you in command. Deliver the stranded Glukkt to his homeworld as he asks, or to your new slaver friends? Attempt to make allies with everyone, or pin your hopes on the tougher races, and hope they never turn on you? Jump by jump, make hard decisions and live with the consequences, in a universe that is never the same twice.

One mission. Endless adventures.

Where will your Journey take you?
  • Endless Space - Explore a living, procedurally generated universe inspired by both classic and modern Science Fiction. Meet different aliens. Find different stories. Take different risks. Learn the secrets of the universe and with them, new possibilities.
  • Hidden stories - Raid alien tombs full of traps and treasure. Compete in the galaxy’s greatest combat tournament. Find and research strange artifacts, and use your crew’s skills to find out whether that old skull is just a piece of bone, or the Holy Grail of an aggressive new species.
  • A crew worth leading - Choose four out of ten experts, all with personality as well as specialties. Far from just stats, you’ll come to know them as they share their feelings, their fears, their excitement and their concerns on the trip and your decisions. Learn how best to use their skills to help the others… and who might be willing to sacrifice themselves to get the others back Home.

hm...

I haven't managed to play and get some sense out of the ‚tutorial' and my thoughts rest on the assumption that the entire game is lijke the ‚tutorial' (nonsense) from what I have seen: - some crew -and ship micro management system - use of swing-by gravity scenarios to get from ‚A to B' - rather dull options/settings (only windowed and native graphics resolution which is the same as far as resolution goes) - you need for these primitive graphics a high-end video card what Death-Stranding does at maximum settings like a charm you better get ready for a wake up call... it was on sale for 0,99 - (it might draw me to give it a try again at some point in the future)

Very good game

Good game from a very small german developer team. Not the latest graphic blockbuster, but the game play has been made with a ton of love. 8 Outa 10 would fab again.

Great!

This game is definitely a challenge but very nice to play. Once you got how to fly the lander and use resources it is quite fun!

Not again

If it supports mac it should support linux. Both run on X11 desktop systems(for most people) and it is very easy to port between the two. I know because I made a rendering engine that did just that. And tbh I just can't be bothered to setup wine for a game with meh reviews anyway, otherwise I might otherwise have brought it on sale. (btw have you noticed games for mac and windows generally are reviewed badly? too much shade ok I'll leave) -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Incidentally I am putting this as a review and not on the forums because I have seen mac and windows support with no linux time and time again with developers, and it makes your game worse. For a little bit of effort it is not to difficult to port at all if you write it decently to begin with. If this is gog's issue then sorry for the one star.
