Some store links are affiliate links — playze may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. It never changes the price you pay, and the cheapest confirmed price is always shown in the Best price box above.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
Players praise this as an underrated classic with excellent replay value and a unique blend of free-roaming space trading, atmospheric storytelling, and engaging market manipulation mechanics that still hold up well decades later. However, the Steam version suffers from significant technical issues and compatibility problems that can make it difficult to run, though those who manage to get it working find it worth the effort, and playing with a joystick is recommended for the best experience.
This game was under sold and unknown by the gamers of the time. I was lucky enough to have a friend back then to tell me about how cool it was. It's a top ten for me and the replay-ability has proven worthy for all these years. One of the best games ever!! IMO.4 found this helpful
Absolute banger of a classic.
runs smoothly and added new music. INCLUDES UPDATED UIM06 patch as well. Great game still
I had this game way back when and sill have the original 2cds here somewhere. I bought a joystick to use with it as that seems to me the only way to play. I recently bought the Steam version but I am unable to get the game to run. Steam does not support the game and directs you to the Zoom site for support. Zoom tells you a recent Steam update broke the game. I have downloaded the DX9 June 2010 drivers and installed them to no avail. At this time I have to give this version a bad review. I will be happy to change this when I can get some help to get it working. Edit: Finally got it working 2 weeks later. It is the same awesome game I remember from years ago. What a struggle though! Too many hoops to jump through to get it functioning!
Great retro game for anyone tired of hi res graphic shoot em ups
Game is just something I played in the 90s and love going back to the old games ever so often. Slow to get started, But once you get use to the controls, I suggest using a joy stick makes flying the ships a lot easier.
