What players say
Players say this 90s classic has aged poorly with clunky controls and cryptic puzzles that make a guide almost necessary. The game is time consuming, its combat can be tedious, and some features feel unfinished, but fans praise its ambitious mix of space exploration, RPG, and tactical elements.
