Middle of the Road

I loved the old school Star Control on the Megadrive and was eager to try this out. It plays in a very, VERY, similar way to star control 2 with all the exploring planet hopping and RPG style diplomacy with ye olde top down 2D ship to ship battles. Pretty decent graphics wise, a little cartoony but I didn't mind. Sadly it just gets a little repetitive, especially since I played Star Control 2 to death and back. I was hoping for something a little different. Well put together but ultimately a little dry and tedious, sadly the original games still rule the roost.

Liked SC2? Get this

I played SC1 and 2 on a Tandy, and this is a wonderful successor. Origins is a great follow-up and alternative universe prequel to SC2 and pokes a bit of fun at the not-that-bad SC3. Ignore whatever you heard about this, the original creators are never coming out with a game despite what they claim. Too much Skylanders money in their pockets to ever bother revisiting this property. If they actually release the game they claimed they were working on while trying to sue Stardock, I will print off the code for Origins and eat it. Suck it, Paul and Fred. Stardock did a great job, it's a fun galaxy explorer with some RPG and adventure elements. It is relaxing to explore a planet searching for resources, and the sense of humour that made the originals more fun than Master of Orion is still intact. Good story, fun single player, and the best part, two-player spaceship battles, is better than ever! Grab a friend and another controller and blow stuff up. I liked the addition of powerups to make the battles more interesting. CONS: No VUX.

Simple but fun little game

It a simple little game that is a throwback to the old 8 bit days. Has suprising depth requiring resources and upgrades.

Good Casual RPG

So I bought this because I had just beaten The Ur-Quan Masters(again) and it didn't quite scratch my Star Control itch enough. I'll tell you that if you're expecting some kind of clone of SCII, you will be disappointed. It was also extremely easy. That said, I enjoyed the story, and it actually was exactly what I needed at the time. The game is only loosely set in the SC universe. They keep alluding to "something" killing off all the sentients. We can assume that this is the Kor-Ah. That's awesome, but I haven't seen anything that explains why there's all these aliens near Earth that aren't there in the very next game... So yeah, there's some disconnect between SC:O and SCII. That said, I gave the game four stars because I really did enjoy the game on its own merits. It had several giggle-worthy moments, a fun and diverse cast of species, and the combat was really fun. For the price that I paid, I feel that I got a good value. If you are looking for a space opera RPG, here you go. This will do until Children of Infinity comes out.
