There's a demo available on Steam for the upcoming dungeon crawler Chronicles of Vaeltaja: In Search of the Great Wanderer: Chronicles of Vaeltaja: In Search of the Great WandererĬhronicles of Vaeltaja: In Search of the Great Wanderer takes you back to the golden era of pc gaming, when role-playing games like Dungeon Master, Might and Magic, Eye of the Beholder, Lands of Lore, WIzardry and Ultima ruled the world. It might not have enough meat on the bone to become your next obsession, but if you want to see meat carved from the bone in tactical bloodbaths, Showgunners is absolutely worth experiencing. However, it’s just as easy to argue that by carving its own path and not sticking religiously to genre conventions, Showgunners is opening the door to a whole new world of players looking for something less intimidating as a gateway into the tactical RPG space. You could argue that by removing a lot of the class versatility and research systems that genre veterans appreciate, it’s narrowing its appeal somewhat, and I myself don’t see myself ever going back for a repeat playthrough. It may not be the deepest tactical RPG out there, which, in turn, removes a lot of the replayability that the genre is known for, but as a 12-15 hour experience that puts spectacle and accessible systems first, it’s a hell of a good time. Showgunners is a violent delight that leans into its setting and premise to great effect. I hope this isn’t the last we see of the U.S.S. Still, Star Trek fans should give Star Trek: Resurgence a try, though, as should any adventure game fans who like sci-fi too. I enjoyed playing this title even as I acknowledge the weak points holding it back, mainly its graphical hiccups. Like an interactive Star Trek show, Resurgence is a game where your decisions have a real impact. I’m incredibly impressed by its scope and the well-written story it conveys. Star Trek: Resurgence is a remarkable narrative adventure game set in a classic space opera universe. It isn’t a flawless gaming experience, but its strengths are strong selling points. It offers a compelling sci-fi tale with believable characters, capturing the heart of the Star Trek series. Resurgence is not only a solid game, but it’s easily one of the best of the recent Star Trek narratives I’ve experienced thus far. Finally getting the chance to play the title, I am pleasantly surprised by what I uncovered. Because of my Star Trek fondness, I was intrigued by the narrative adventure game Star Trek: Resurgence when first announced. My favorite of the original Star Trek movies is Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home because it featured whales, and I still constantly refer to anything round and fuzzy as a tribble! Admittedly, I’m still catching up on the newer Star Trek series, but I’ve enjoyed what I’ve seen of them. Since my mother is an avid fan of the sci-fi series, I’d catch episodes of Star Trek: The Next Generation, Deep Space Nine, and Voyager growing up. Let me start this Star Trek: Resurgence review by saying I am familiar with the Star Trek universe.
