Imagine a future where corruption prospers on every planet.
Imagine a future where danger lurks behind every asteroid.
Imagine Space Wolves - a breed of freelance bounty hunters
working together against the odds to survive and prosper.
Your task is to hone your team of rough, unskilled pilots
into a fearsome fighting force. Then using your mastery of
space battlefield tactics, turn your squad into living legends
as you battle against rogue AI computers, pirate scavengers
and the ships of the corrupt ruling empire...
Star
Wolves is
a pretty engaging offering. This 3D space-based, RPG, strategy
games allows you to choose your crew and head off in to the
vastness of space and clean the galaxy of space bandits. It's
down to you to pick your team of rough and ready rookie pilots
and train them up into a mean, lean fighting machine.
It's
worth taking a bit of time and effort to choose the right
team. Each member possesses their own unique personality,
ability and skills and it can make all the difference if the
team dynamics are not right.
Once
you have your motley crew it's time to set off in search of
rouge AI computers, human space pirates, bloodthirsty space
scavengers and the spaceships of the corrupt ruling empires...
but don't expect to be soaring through space in a cool craft.
You
start the game piloting the space equivalent of a clapped
out Morris Minor and must earn the right to upgrade to a better
vessel.
The
graphics are pretty impressive and the gameplay is fantastic.
I couldn't help being reminded of that old classic Spectrum
48K game Elite. While, obviously the graphics and gameplay
have leapt forward in leaps and bounds (and unlike Elite
you are not travelling between planets to trade goods), in
essence I found this to be as original and addictive as Elite.
To
sum up, Star Wolves is a 3D RPG strategy game for those
who like to to use their brains rather than going in all guns
blazing. It's fun, frantic and damn cool.
