Great Hexagon Strategy Game. There is a small learning curve, especiallyou when switching ship classes. The game can definitely be difficult but it is highly enjoyable. A great mix of story and strategy in a well crafted universe. On phones the interface is very small and can be difficult to use, but it is not game breaking.

Takes some of the best mechanics from games like FTL, and builds a new game on top with different core gameplay mechanics, shorter individual runs but a long story arc that follows multiple runs. Lore is deep enough to be interesting, but not overwhelm gameplay. Different builds and strategies are possible. Shorter gameplay loop allows for more experimentation with builds. Borrows familiar lore from Dune and mechanics from FTL but builds on them with new core gameplay and story.

I'm not a big fan of mobile games: they tend to boree very quickly. Today I realized that I've just been playing wrong games. The plot is interesting, the view is amazing and incredible. The music really enhances the feeling of traveling through the stars. It's just all-around so cool that the moment I saw the prompt for a review show up, I immediately went here to tell this=) (the prompt was, surprisingly not even at an annoying moment!)
