Jet Story - 2018 is a remake of an ancient ZX Spectrum game from 1988. Gameplay is not dissimilar from the old Lunar Lander games as your ship fights gravity with jets and thrusters. Enemies and hazards abound, but your ship has an array of weapons to help you as you navigate the 2D retro maze. The remake is decent enough and manages to capture the spirit of the ancient game closely. The developer chose a blend of modern textures and retro/pixel looking art. The game doesn't terminate properly and hangs around as a process you must kill through task manager. Resolution is locked and can't be changed, which drops this below acceptable standards for a modern PC game, although the controls can be remapped. As the saying goes, you can't go home again. The developer has generously given this away for free, once more contributing to the wealth of the body of video games for all. While the general quality of a 30+ year old game isn't such that I could recommend people stop playing CS:GO for it, as it really only has appeal to fans of the ZX Spectrum, I hope the developer will go on and lend their considerable talents to more contemporary games.

Игра 'Jet-Story 2018' - это увлекательный авиасимулятор с фокусом на реалистичный полет и менеджмент авиакомпании. Графика для 2018 года выглядит вполне прилично, да и физика полета достаточно убедительна, хотя до современных стандартов конечно не дотягивает. Интересно, что разработчики уделили внимание мелочам, вроде влияния погодных условий на поведение самолета. Главный плюс игры - это глубокая система управления авиакомпанией. Нужно следить за финансами, маршрутами, техническим состоянием самолетов и даже настроением экипажа. Эта составляющая добавляет игре стратегическую глубину и делает игровой процесс более разнообразным. Однако, оптимизация оставляет желать лучшего. На старых компьютерах могут быть проблемы с производительностью. Также, хотелось бы больше разнообразия в моделях самолетов и аэропортов. В целом, 'Jet-Story 2018' - достойный выбор для любителей авиации и экономических стратегий, несмотря на некоторые недостатки. Если вы готовы закрыть глаза на устаревшую графику и возможные проблемы с оптимизацией, то игра может подарить вам много часов увлекательного геймплея. Твёрдая "четвёрка".

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
