Game introduction

Anyone who loves sandbox games will be familiar with Re-Logic, the famous publisher of Terraria. In 2014 Re-Logic released Pixel Piracy, a game produced by Quadro Delta, which received positive reviews for its innovative sandbox piracy genre, and in the same year Quadro Delta announced that it was working on new pirate games.

After three years, after several jumps, "Pixel Interstellar Pirate Pixel Privateer" finally met with everyone on February 21, 2017.

The game tells the story of players hired by a mysterious figure to lead their squad through a wormhole on a mission. But little did you think that your journey would become a one-way ticket to explore galaxies all over the world, encounter other aliens, and gather all kinds of energy sources.

Are you determined to get your squad back home, in this new universe, to overcome difficulties or become another victim of the universe's many dangers? Ultimately, how your story goes is up to you!

The game is available on steam for 48 RMB.

Game content

As a pixel game, the picture quality of the game is relatively good, the changeable scenery, the Q version of the characters will not make you disgusted, with the villain sound and relaxed music, bring you a good game experience.

When I first entered the game, I thought it would be like Starbound, exploring the planets of the universe for supplies and building equipment.

However, in the course of the game, I found that I was very wrong, this should be a horizontal, team-based, dungeon-like adventure RPG game, with some brush elements.

The way the game is played, you recruit your team to explore the planet and get loot. Have equipment, resources, and research, then research technology, upgrade the team.

The game's equipment system is similar to the Diablo style rarity affix random equipment, which means that you need to spend a lot of time to create "magic costumes" for each member of the squad.

In addition, the game can be online, you can explore the planet with gay friends, brush out God, you can also take your girlfriend to explore various planets and experience "exotic".

Since the number of characters attacking in online mode is limited to 8, this makes you need to discuss the combination of the lineup with your teammates, otherwise it is easy to destroy the team.  

Although it is a pixel game, the graphics are very good

The combat system of the game

Combat is a team RTS(Real-Time strategy) approach where you have to manually select enemies and control some active skills and consumables. After selecting an enemy, your team can attack them. In the actual play process, I found that there are many flaws in the combat system, first of all, the combat operation is too repetitive, you need to click on each enemy, because the character does not automatically counter the enemy, you can only click on the enemy one by one (later if there is a weapon of mass destruction, this problem may not bother the player too much).

In addition, it should be mentioned that since the author did not play difficult difficulty, the battle process in the late stage is slightly monotonous, played after, but take medicine, strategy is not obvious, so if you want to experience the operation and strategy of the battle, it is recommended that players choose difficult difficulty to experience the game, because in this difficulty, if the player's villain dies, it will disappear forever. This will undoubtedly require some strategic and operational effort on your part.

And the game is very human point is that if you feel that the difficulty is too high, you can change the difficulty back to normal in the game, there is no need to start a new save.

Most battles don't require strategy

Sum up

This game that should have met with you two years ago, after several jumps, appeared in front of us in 2017, the quality of the game is not like an independent game, which is worthy of recognition, but the uniqueness of the game is like a jump ticket, slowly lost...

I still remember that "Pixel Pirates" is attractive because its core gameplay is the design of the ship, the strategy of artillery and docking battles, how to make the ship strong and resistant, which need players to invest in the game.

Whether it is the design of the ship or similar layout facilities, managing the crew of these semi-operational gameplay, it is easy to get addicted to.

However, my personal feeling is that this game lacks such a unique and interesting core gameplay, you can not design your ship in detail (only determine the types of rooms in the ship), there is no leisure time to interact with the crew, only the current common copy and equipment drop gameplay.

There are no major drawbacks to the game, if any, it is the lack of automatic attack features in the combat operations.

Plus this game doesn't have Chinese! Thanks to the equipment system, you can spend a lot of time in this game and never get tired of it.

The game is good, and the price is ideal, but it is a pity that for those who have played the previous game, there is less of the unique feeling of the Pirates series.
