There is so much TLC and out-and-out WOW in this game, from the awesomeness (awe is a good word for parts of this game--but no spoilers, sorry) and details in the visible world, to the easy-to-learn yet FULL ON turn-based strategy mega-fest, that I won't go any further than to say GET IT!
Great game. The devs have mentioned that FTL was inspired by the space roguelike, Weird Worlds, and the cooperative board game, Red November. Totally makes sense. (Btw, if you haven't played them DEFINITELY check out Weird Worlds and Red November--the latter about a crew of drunken gnomes trying to keep their gnomish submarine together--ha!). Anyway, for $10 you can't go wrong here.
