The galaxy is your oyster.

Smugglers V, a turn-based Sci-Fi epic where you fight, trade, and pirate your way to the top of galactic elite, is available on GOG.com, for only $9.99.

There is a whole genre of games dedicated to a single idea: you're a spacecraft pilot climbing the ladder of power and fame through trading, combat, prospecting, freighting, and possibly piracy. The unsurpassed freedom and feeling that your destiny is your own to shape, made this single idea one of the most prolific motifs in PC gaming. Many of space-sims enjoy cult following and games of this genre developed nowadays sometimes reach incredible scale and complexity. Most of them, though, involve a lot of action and put reflexes before tactics and planning. This one is different. It's played in turns.

Smugglers V is what you get when a dedicated creator polishes and improves every aspect of his game for years. Smugglers is not a series in the common understanding of the word. You don't need to play Smugglers 1-4 to enjoy the fifth one to full extent. It's still pretty much the same game, that evolves with each installment, gaining more and more gameplay depth, enriching the dynamic universe presented, and offering new options. In the latest version we offer you here, the phenomenal turn-based space-sim offers 30+ different spacecrafts, 100+ pilot skills and traits, 6 different career choices, and 4 factions to pledge allegiance to at your whim. The turn-based mechanics make this title extremely addictive, as the "one more turn" syndrome can hold you at the helm to the wee hours of the morning.

Pilot, forge your fortune and make your own destiny in a galaxy full of war, unrest, villany, and opportunity in Smugglers V, for only $9.99 on GOG.com.
this not only looks evil but interesting as well. Good work gog in bringing some more lawful evilness to the land.
never heard of Smugglers.

Are Smugglers I-IV separate games each or is the series more like each game an update of the previous one?

I checked out the demo a few months ago and liked it. Then I went to the website with the possibility of buying, and then, well, you can imagine my surprise. It's good to see it here at a more reasonable price :)

I-IV is half price when you buy all 5 together though, still expensive but it seems like there IS some point to playing the other 4 after all, maybe, unless GOG's own opinion is that its not worth it and the publishers are just trying to milk it as much as they can...
Is this something like Space Rangers?
Wishlisted for now, seems like a good game, will see what the reviews come back with. But good on GOG picking it up at such a nice price for us.
I never heard of this game before. Looks similar to Privateer and Elite.
Damn you GoG, I want Splinter Cell 2 and 3 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
