What Steam players say

✦ AI summary

Vortex is a space combat game that players praise for its intense ship-to-ship battles, weapon upgrades, customization, and challenging boss fights, though the experience heavily depends on using a controller rather than keyboard controls. Most reviewers strongly recommend playing with a gamepad, as keyboard controls are considered poor, but those who do will find satisfying gameplay with solid progression and explosive action.

You don't control the ship with your mouse. You control it with the keyboard. Enough to say, that it's terrible. Just, don't.

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

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.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

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.
