Dark Horizon Review

This game has one of the strangest scrips, After only a few minutes of play you find that even tho they are speaking english. You don't know what they are saying. Think of it as everything in the universe being named diffrent. So an Apple would be a Grand orb. A chair would be a seth (made up word like they did) So as you go you just destory ships.

Ship customization is pretty good
Understanding what a part does is harder
Id say if your board, this is a good game. If your not the pages of text you have to read to make even a smallest bit of sence here is not worth it.

Have fun flying

cool game, makes you loose track of time - Gunther Brahm - Dortmund Germany
I love this game so much I loose track of time. I played all through the night and never realized it.
It is just a fun, action packed game, with cool affects.

A Solid Space Game - Steven Woodcock - Colorado Springs, CO United States
A solid game, it definitely is more for the collector or aficionado of the genre than the casual gamer.

While similar to Freelancer in many respects the game universe isn't as diverse and the storyline isn't as adaptive. I enjoyed it because of the game controls and the unique subject matter (games like this are harder to find than they should be!), so as long as you know that going in you'll probably enjoy it too.

Yes, it does support joysticks for those who are sticklers for such things!

Recommended with caveats--this is a lighter, shallower game than Freelancer or Privateer, so know what you're getting.
