Best Game Out There!

(5/5) Reviewed by User: SueRan on 2007-04-19

I don't understand why this game isn't more well known than it is...in my opinion it's the best browser-based game out there, and I've played them all! There are about 40-50 star systems in this game with more being added all the time. Think of it as a mega-game with free-form roleplay. Each star system could be a huge game all by itself, in fact some players play in one system all the time, and are sought out by other players to act as GUIDES when visiting! Yes, it's THAT big. I found this game on wikipedia and the discription there didn't do it justice. I figured if it was half as good as it seemed, I should try it, but it was...like...ten times as good as it seemed. It takes a good day of gameplay to get the hang of it, but the manuals, tutorials, and FAQ are very well written and a lot of help. The other players are helpful too, and there are several yahoo groups dedicated to the game as well. Everything you want in a MMORPG is here. It's web based, free (for real), way fun, good strategy elements as well as action, politics, and intrigue. Theres TONS of surprises and unexpected twists. Multiple (thousands) of plotlines. You'll never get bored of this one. Oh, and they don't care if you have multiple accounts, which is really cool because so many in other games use proxys to cheat. In starships it's a level playing field. I strongly recommend that you at least TRY this game, it's da-bomb.
