Deep Sky Derelicts
In a grim dystopian future, where mankind has scattered across the galaxy and the human society has split into two distinct classes, you are a poor stateless outcast forced to live off scraps from derelict alien stations and ships in the outer space, yet you dream of becoming a privileged citizen and living on the surface of a habitable planet, enjoying non-synthetic air, water and food. A fabled alien derelict ship somewhere within the Deep Sky sector of space is your voucher for a citizenship and a promise of cozy life on a hospitable planet. Build and control a squad of up to three mercenary characters and set on to explore derelict ships within your reach from the scavenger's base. Searching the derelicts for loot and clues, you come across many friendly inhabitants and traders, but more often – various enemies.

Very fun but very imperfect game.
I would fully recommend it considering the cost.
The mid game feels the toughtset and by getting level 9-10 you really feel the power of your characters.

It boggles my mind that people would review this negatively.
It's a fun game. Good loop. Good humor. Good art. Not super deep in mechanics. I've gone back and played through a handful of times. Will play again.

Reminiscent of Darkest Dungeon with its own vibe and interesting mechanics. The character customization was pretty interesting as well, a bit more in-depth (which I prefer) than DD. I thought my team was unbeatable but I was quickly humbled as I approached the endgame!

This game is basically a straightforward rogue-lite deck-builder game. I would only get it on discount, but it's worth at least one play through. I could be wrong, but I don't think there is enough variety to warrant more than a couple of playthroughs at most. The most interesting aspect of the game is building your deck for your weapons and deciding on the skills/attributes. The biggest downside would be that the combat eventually starts to become monotonous towards the end.

A solid deckbuilder game
What this game is:
This is a good deck-builder game with a space theme, some RPG elements, and OK game mechanics.
How does it work?
You are a scavenger making a living by recovering material from space derelicts and junk. You are hired to find a legendary mothership with advanced technology by the governor of a system linked to the Mirror Worlds. You are offered citizenship in the Mirror Worlds if you accept the mission to find the location of the fabled mothership. Dangerous work and a lot of combat is awaiting you and your team!
How does it perform?
It performs well, has some minor bugs, and provides good replayability. The game is decent, and once you get the hand of it you will enjoy it, at least for a time. If you try to get all the achievements though you will find that it may become quite repetitive and grindy.
The good points:
The game in itself is not complicated, but the variety of classes and abilities will provide some differentiating playstyles and choices to be made in order to make it to the mothership. Replayability is good, you can vary the gameplay by combining differents classes of characters with varying abilities. Graphics are cartoonlike with minimal animation, but that esthetic works well for the game. There is an Arena gaming mode that provides some challenges and fun. There are two DLCs available to improve gameplay and provide new events in the game. You get Achievements and Steam Trading Cards. It can be played on a 10 years old PC and does not require a lot of graphical power. It will take between 2.2 to 2.5 GB on your HD.
The bad points:
(i) It has some minor bugs that are not life threatening. The worst one in my opinion appears in battle when there is a huge worm with high HP associated with humanoid characters. The game switches the stats from the worm on one of the humanoid characters, and make it impossible to hit it directly individually. Group strikes will affect it and make it lose hitpoints or acquire negative effects, but you have to wait until the humanoid character is dead in order to be able to attack it directly one on one. If you want to get all achievements, it is probable you will find the game grindy. (ii) Some events linked to the Achievements are randomly generated, and in some cases you will have to replay many times in order to finally to get the Achievement.
My take on this:
The game is decent and provides good value for the money. It is not the better in its category, but has solid game mechanics, good replayability and solid value all around. My recommendation would be to buy it when it is discounted.

Darkest Dungeon in space. Nice story if you are able to read and an enjoyable based-turned combat and team building for your 6 different available classes to play. The hub feels like a comfy place and it is pretty much intuitive to use with a couple not so good things, like inventory.
Currently on my second run to try all of the classes out and still enjoying it after 40+hours.
IMO, it deserves the buy on a full price if you like turn-based combat games.

Fun deckbuilder with a good amount of progression, challenge, and novelty throughout the game. A little frustrating until you get the resource management elements nailed, but overall worth playing. Wonderful artwork!
