Gameplay is described as basic yet detailed, appealing primarily to players who enjoy ship mechanics and progression through career mode.

Overall, the game may not cater to casual players, but it offers depth for those willing to invest time.

“The gameplay is interesting and seems complex, and I am going to need to give it more time to enjoy it fully.”
