Hi Darren.
I agree, particularly because I've not been able to get Ce to play properly
with safari on my Iphone.
I think there are supposed to be something like 200 planets in the elite
version, which means lots of places to go. The only problem I'm having at
the moment with the map is that it only shows the names of planets, not how
far away they are or who they belong to, meaning I fly off to do some
exploring, then suddenly realize I'm crossing half the galaxy! that is a
little frustrating and I've not found a way around it, indeed at the
moment my crew are getting very cross since I'm stuck in the middle of deep
space and am out of everything.
Other than that issue though things are great, I like the universe and the
events, although again it is a little irritating to be told something like
"dark age technology was found on Ironhill" and then have absolutely no
idea where the iron hell that planet is! :d.
On the other hand I do like the way the game is focused more on open ended
wandering around and doing different things strategically than grinding,
even the ship upgrades are fairly open to interpreatation.
I'm hoping Trees brothers will also considder adding access changes to some
of their other games too, since they make various rpg type things from
cyberpunk warriors to high seas piracy.
Beware the grue!
Dark.

Hi dark,
It really is good isn't it. I haven't explored that much. I've mainly been
trying to get my rank up. How big do you think the map is? So far i have
gone out as far as 20 18. Its about time that there was a space game on
ios that we can play.

Just for people on this list, as of yesterday Star traders rpg from trees
brothers games is now accessible on Ios and can be found on the ap store.
It's got a nav helper accessed through the menue which gives you a list of
planets to travel to, which works well.
I'm still figuring out the game and how everything works, but I like what
I've seen thus far, certainly worth the three dolars for the elite
version, although there is a free version as well (I bought the elite
straight off since this is just my sort of game).
The game is sort of similar to smugglers or core exiles in that you fly
around with a spaceship, there are a number of factions who have wars, you
have a crew and engage in space combat. The difference is that the
universe is rather like the dune books by Frank herbert, galactic houses
and politics along with sindicates, there are lots of different things
to do, exploring planets, lots of ship combat, boarding and capturing
ships and a lot more, indeed I'm only just starting on the game myself.
one thing that I do like the look of is that rather than you just
grinding away at the same resource trading, you actually need to research
where things are needed for yourself, which makes the game quite unique,
as does the fact that while there ar elots of ships and upgrades to buy
and awards to earn, the game is pretty open ended.
It looks highly interesting and I'd advise any rpg fans to give it a try.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
