Out There: Ω Edition

Good concept, but pretty buggy. It lost me when my only stack of helium got deleted with no confirmation.

Minesweeper in space. Stumble from star to star until you run out of resources. Then die. Somewhat tedious and definitely frustrating.

This game is a really fun and interesting little diversion. It is certainly challenging in the beginning, frustratingly so at times, but each excursion builds on each other making a wonderfully replayable experience.

Random problems with no solutions. It gets tiresome quickly.

I like this game but it’s too hard to read the text on iPhone 11 Pro Max (I have 20/20 Vision)

EZ to understand and play; with virtually unlimited endings based on player choices. Nice graphics… Good time. Well worth a couple bucks!

A beautifully made game that's immersive and impossibly difficult. Great graphics, writing and music won’t save this game from itself. Other reviewers have detailed the problem: gameplay is way too RNG!!

The game is good and very interesting, but even when you played it like 30 times or so, learned most of the mechanics and act the best possible way, the game still randomly kills you - like, sends you to a star formation where you can’t jump out from because your engines are not good enough (and you’re stuck and have to restart) or you just don’t meet a particular planet type on the way for a few steps and run of one of the resource (means, you die). It’s like punishing you randomly while you didn’t do anything wrong and you have to restart again and again. It’s not right.

Pro: Absolutely wonderful gameplay; The storytelling is excellent; The UI is precise. Con: The sound doesn’t work. Nothing no music no sound effects. Even when the settings for sound maxed out. It’s such a bummer. I guess they never finished that part.

“Out There” is a masterpiece. It does so many things right, and avoids the pitfalls of other games. The whole thing is a labor of love, from the hand-drawn art to the gorgeous score, from the great writing to the fun mechanics of the game. I find myself coming back to this every time I want to get lost in another universe for a while.
