Randomness in lieu of a game
People complain about the dice in this game but the dice aren't the problem. The developers crammed as many sources of randomness they could into the game - random damaged modules, random hazards, random events between turns, random research cards - and crammed it with hidden or unexplained mechanics that affect the game (stress, teamwork) - with the end result being a game where you are getting batted around every turn like a windsock in a hurricane. You survive likewise: flap around for a while without much control and in the last turn you dive for the escape pod. I have won a single game in easy difficulty (1 crew member survived with the ship nearly destroyed) after a 12-loss streak where I didn't even have a prayer. Afterwards I lost another 5 games in a row where I'm all confused about why the previously winning strategy didn't even survive past turn 3. There is no obvious pattern - sometimes you just get a bunch of events in a row that drain hull or health and then you can't survive the big hit that will come around turn 6. There is no variety in gameplay: every game is the same thing and develops in roughly the same way. There is no character development, no narrative, the ship layout is always the same - heck, you even start with the same destroyed module from the tutorial. There isn't even some kind of "endless" mode. You get the 10-turn normal mode and a few short premade scenarios (that are for masochists). The game is also not a "casual" game - it is actually quite stressful. I've played roguelike and bullet hell games where I'm getting slaughtered and it is still less depressing than this game. Strongly recommend that you read a guide and learn a few strategies before diving it. Cannot recommend this - certainly not at €15. There are FAR better games than this out there for that kind of price.
