Excellent athmosphericspace exploration

in the line of Dark Star and also the Alien franchise, it will feel very familiar to anyone who played survival open world games like Valheim, Death Stranding, The Forest (franchise games) or Subnautica. It has an eerie beauty of the lived-in horror and loneliness of multitudes of clones, as we start our days as one and end them so, like some sort of a "message in the bottle" ship a fool's hope or a fool's errand. Some mechanics may be infuriating , but acceptable. It remains to be seen as well if the research tree will show itself to be interesting enough in mid and later game. Edit: Wellll, there is the good: - The game's balanced in the mid-game the difficulty ramps up with pirate attacks, infestations and the need to repair and review the layout of your ship after those and the bad: - like Valheim, the game will crash and take away all your progress. Yes, still in 2025 there are people and game companies which produce single-save games, where one can't save manually, and the mechanics of which will not bat an eye to overwrite a file with content by a file of 0 bytes... So, I am, unfortunately not going to replay your game.

Really good and atmospheric roguelike

I am really impressed by this game. The mechanics are simple, yet deep. Being a huge fan of the first Alien movie, this roguelike has a similar horror / sci-fi vibe and I am really enjoying it. It runs well, graphics and animations aren't AAA's level, but it's alright (it's a mid-price game after all). Haven't encounter any game breaking bugs either. Really atmospheric, fun and with a satisfying gameplay loop, Genesis Alpha One is easily a 8/10 for me. Well worth the price.

Best Sci-Fi Roguelike I know

First of all, this review is based off from several hundred hours played on the Playstation 4 version of the game, so I can't comment on any technical issues for the PC version. How enjoyable/playable any particular run will be is down to how much you like random chance, since everything from what resources you find to your victory conditions are determined by the random number generator. Pros Good Replayability: While you will eventually start recognizing the various planets and ships, there is enough variance to make it unlikely to run into the exact same place multiple times. Additionally, how you complete a run can unlock options for later runs. Gameplay based Progression: Unlocking better starting corporations and items require you to get into the game and perform various actions and find the different weapons/upgrades/robots. This grants a lot of options for later runs, but you aren't forced to take any of these if you don't want to. Custom RNG: You can choose how resource dense or scarce the game is for different classes of resource, set how many rogue(hostile) ships are prowling the galaxy, and how many hazardous territories there are, as well as how difficult to initiate the Genesis Mission(End Game) is. Cons Erratic Difficulty: While the ingame threat analysis is mostly correct, some worlds and debris fields are much more dangerous than stated. The lack of infestation detection without use of relatively rare upgrade components and extreme danger of certain infestations exacerbates this issue. Braindead A.I.: Whether it be on planetary expedition or shipboard defense, your A.I. crew often don't engage until hostiles are in near melee range or after they have been shot, and tend to have bad aim. Additionally, they sometimes ignore infestations on the ship that they should clear out, as they are not under decks. Still, Genesis Alpha One is a game I would recommend to any looking for a good Sci-Fi Roguelike.

Notable merits, not enough.

Game feels tremendously underbaked. This is the EXPECTATION of survival games, and games with high concepts. I gave Genesis Alpha One a pass on being crude for a curious basebuilding concept, and broadly intriguing notions of an FTL-like experience, but somewhere along the line it set an expectation that this would be an experience best shared with a team of human players. This game has no support for multiplayer, despite... looking for all the world like a game intended for a player-run crew. Frustrated and alone, this went back on the shelf immediately.

A very fancy version of 'Duskers'.

This old and buggy version of the game is a pain to play. There is no warning, no alarm, no notice of 'problems'. Constant patrol by the player is necessary. You start with no tech and no resources. It's a 'dying is fun' game.
