Ok, I admit I bought the game because of the video. The game been under my radar for quite awhile, but never got around to it until recently.

Now, it is pretty engaging and funny. Its all up to you to pay attention to the task at hand.Take note any inconsistency and missing documents! Don't let terrorist and enemies into our lands! Only you can keep Arstotzka safe. For Arstotzka!

The game play is straightforward. Just highlight between two things, be it error or missing item. Like someone walks up to your post, and just greet you without papers. Open up the main book, select documents in the rules section and then select empty table, then select interrogate. Or someone gives you passport, but no work permit. You select the work permit ticket in the rule book and the table, then select interrogate. He or she may or may not have it or simply don't let that person pass. :)

I recommend this game to anyone, be it on sale or full retail. I intend to play and get all achievements! :)

It was extremely fun. Probably the "best" VR game to date until maybe Fallout 4 VR. Went through basic training, which is simple and easy to go through. Then I go play my first online group play with 3 other random people. I was on engineer, had a awesome female captain and won my first mission. I reached "Captain" rank and have been playing mostly as Captain and winning most missions and getting achievements.

Now... content-wise, its less than mediocre. Now if Ubisoft made the game available with workshop, potential is limitless, but of couse that did not happen. Apparently Ubisoft is... Done with this game? There hasn't been any updates for new possible contents. It feels very much like a quick cash grab then abandon game. Feels very, VERY like EA (which I very dispise).

Which I cannot recommend this game at all for this seemingly abandoned game by the developers... At best, I would only get it for $20 tops right now (I did buy it at launch), preferrly 10 at discount.

Well. It is a good game. Somewhat similar to Eve-Online skill que system, except it is more interaction. Everyday, I log in, play with it for 5-30 minutes, and then do something else. I wanted to see the "end-game", which is probably do all the quests and identify every weapons and armor/clothing. I did play this game at good length on mobile version, but I stopped when I got a new phone and... yeah ...

So anyway, it was good distraction. I did spend about $25 or so into it because I did feel it earn my money. Now do I regret it? I suppose you can say yes. Why? Well, be warned. Should your PC EVER to crash mid game, be prepared to say good-bye to your 50+ fully stats dwellers. I did not how how "significant" it causes, especially when people like me, did not know the importance of backing up data. I was sure Steam-Cloud is reliable, but not for this game it seems ... That $25 bucks went down the drain and can't never be used again, even for new vaults. (No really, I don't really care or its a big deal, but you know?)

This happened almost a month ago and I decided no more playing this product (or any ANY mobile-related games, even on my phone to play with). If my PC didn't crash back then, would I still play? For sure, yes when you did NOT know about PC crashing bugs your save game. :) FYI, my PC crash was un-related to the game, but it WAS running at the time.

13+ years and still going! How you do in this game is entirely up to you. Am I a successful player in Eve-Online? More or less. Do I have reached the endgame? Absolutely not. If anything, there is no endgame! I have done just about everything Eve-Online has to offer on what I want to do! This game is going strong and having more content added over time.

Is it a hard game? Yes, it can be. Is it complex? Again, it can be. It all depends on what you plan on doing in the game.

You can be a Industrialist by building ships or gathering resources from planets, or mine at asteroid fields or gas.
You can be a combat pilot for PvP under piracy, PvE, or Null Sec.
You can even be a trader, where you can manipulate the market to your own gains and goals.
Or you can be an explorer and reach every single space without losing a ship (only one did so far!)
It is up to you on what would get this game to be fun to play or on your play style.

The game is always changing, both its graphics and its mechanics. This game is not for everyone due of its vast and harsh nature. Just remember, NOTHING is safe in Eve-Online. As Q said to Captain Picard, in a cut quote:

"--- .... It's not safe out here. It's wondrous, with treasures to satiate desires both subtle and gross. But it's not for the timid."

There was two reasons I play Eve-Online, but due of the recent changes to Skill Points system (skill injectors, etc), it is now one.

1. Everyone (except China ...) play in one server. None of the multiple servers crap.

What I done so far in Eve are:

I have lived in empire in my first few months into Eve-Online, mostly PvE.
After that, I spent the next 6'ish years in Null Sec.
After Null Sec, I spent almost 2 years in Low Sec.
Now I am currently living in wormhole space, another kind of PvP enviroment :) . I am a PvP'er, but I also do industry related things and PvE.

If you want to play the game, my biggest tip is, join Eve-University Corp. Or ask friends that play the game. I seen new pilots go straight to wormholes or null sec, skipping the high sec environment. Only limit there is in the game, is YOU and how you make it succeed!

If you need some advice or direction, send an eve-mail to NeoShocker!

A very frustrating, yet addicting game! I always come back for more to see what will happen! Many times I "rage-quit" and come back for more. How you get your crew, weapons, scrap parts, encountering enemy ships, and events are all randomized.

It looks complex, but its a really simple game where you micro manage certain amount of crewmen and all you have to do is reach towards the end of the goal map to jump to the next system. There is no "best whatever" thing. I recall a few times that I had max skilled pilot, engineer, gunner, and shield and I lost the game because of no "oxygen" and death to fire.

Its is a difficult game to beat, but how you manage the difficulty is totally on you and some luck!

Well, completed the whole game. Which includes Extreme difficulty and achievements. I aced it as if I were aged 8? when I first played the NES version. While the game is easy on a keyboard, I recommend playing the game with the controller, especially if you have "hard pogo" option where you have to press down and action button.

It has small reply value and $15 is "steep" of a price since you can beat the game under an hour, but I bought it as soon as it came out and its worth every bit of it. :) If there is a price reduction, especially if it is 50% off, I highly recommend you buy it!

Played this game, and it was fun... for a few days because you get "premium" status for a few days. Reason being the premium status give you "significant" advantage. More detailed report of your castle and build/research que. Non-premiun do not have those. Played it for about 3 weeks and it was very clear it is pay to win.
