    The game which is initially easy to condemn but is harder to get rid of it later. Solid gameplay and a comprehensive game world are the major pluses of this piece. [Issue#201]

    Precursors is one of those games that must be taken for what it is. The freedom is absolute and the mix of FPS, RPG and space battles is something quite unique. On the other hand, there are several bugs, glitches and problems large and small involving many aspects of the experience.

    A really intriguing mixture of genres. There's a sandbox world to explore, lot's of first-person shooting and some role-playing, with space flight and combat thrown in to tie it all together. It's unfinished, badly written and at times not very fun, but there's nothing out there like it. [Oct 2011]

    It's got decent spaceship sections and charmingly bad dialogue, but don't expect quality or compelling action. [Apr 2011, p.96]

Awe-inspiring originality far removed from the PARPG (Post Apocalyptic RPG) trend which has infected the gaming industry today (Bethesda, i'm looking at you O_O ). For being the best game in a category of one ( quest-oriented space RPG with out of ship gameplay), it more than deserves it's ten score. Admittedly it has a very obscure Russian feel to it, but if you can see through that, there is a role model for other studios to follow. 10/10.… Full Review »
