Facing an overwhelming threat at home, humanity sends an expedition to the Pegasus Galaxy in a desperate attempt to find a refuge for the population of Earth, only to find themselves in the middle of an interstellar war they inadvertently started.

    The Pegasus Expedition is a competent strategy game with some unique ideas and a narrative turn that not many in its genre attempt. I especially like how it asks players to carefully invest significant resources at the start and then settle into a more classic rhythm for a strategy game. The limited control of space battles means the action always moves at a rapid pace, and tough choices happen almost every turn. The problem here is that none of the innovative elements fully come together. The moral dilemmas in the story aren’t as engaging because the characters have limited appeal. There’s not enough strategy variety to keep ship engagements interesting. The Pegasus Expedition deserves to get a sequel that takes its core ideas and focuses on pushing them forward to truly revolutionize the strategy genre.

    The Pegasus Expedition in review has a strong story that makes you reflect on your actions. This combined with great visuals and sound design makes for a solid start for the game. However it's gameplay, whilst satisfactory, has yet to seriously impress. It works on the broad level, but less so in the small scale. This being said, with more player involvement in combat and a better tutorial it could become a great game.

However, poor presentation, graphics and sound make it one for the bargain bin instead. The characters are some of the worst designed I've ever come across. Its difficult to tell what you're even looking at. The dark stark contrast of the world map versus the colorful yet plain cutscenes are quite jarring. The battles as well are AI controlled and very difficult to see whats even going on. The story aspect is a nice to have in a game like this but it could have been so much better if better design decisions were taken. If you really have to play this game, rather wait for it to go on special or try a demo if its available. There are much better games out there for your hard earned money.… Expand
