If your looking for a space-trader sim then look no further! It's balance between combat and trading is truly one of a kind. It has a deep feel of what it might actually be like starting out with a bottom-of-the-line ship and working towards a top-class ship! Whether by taking up missions or being a space trader.

While not easily played on modern computers, EV Nova is an incredibly unique game with a high, albeit rewarding, learning curve. A truly outstanding game.… Expand
