Description
And you thought being a Terraforming Engineer would be a quiet life compared to being a Space Marine? Blasting rocks to make way for new settlements on Tyrian seemed like a quiet life, but your long-time Huzundra friend is now dead - bless his lizard hide. Murdered! And obviously Microsol, the Terraforming company wants you dead too! It's that huge new rock formation you and Buce uncovered - it's Gravitium, and it's priceless. Tyrian is the only planet where it exists in commercial quantities, and Microsol are determined to control it. You can expect them to throw all their resources against you - and they won't pull any punches.

Sympathies for those who paid for a copy

Tyrian is like a mostly empty lounge on a cruise liner hosting low and subtle piano music and an on-board electronic female voice that sounds like she's about to cry. Shooting is mostly optional.

No Joystick No play :(

Whether the game is great or not, the lack of a keyboard control interface drops this rating to a 2. Then again, it was free for a reason LOL

Not my cup, but maybe yours...

6 of 5 must play. 5 of 5 great story great gameplay. 4 of 5 great story average gameplay. 3 of 5 average story average gameplay. 2 of 5 play only if it's your favorite genre. 1 of 5 play if you have nothing better to do. 0 of 5 play if you're a masochist. -1 of 5 avoid. Tyrian 2000 score is 2 of 5.

No way to exit

The game is fine I guess, but you have to pull the power cord in your computer to quit. Pretty broken.
