What players say
Players are split on this 2003 spin-off of the 4X strategy series: many buy it for nostalgia, but others find it half-finished and broken on modern systems. The game is a series of fetch quests and combat missions where you earn credits to buy bigger ships, but bugs like corrupted saves, broken warp points, and glitchy shuttles are common complaints.
