I'm a fan of "GO AROUND SPACE AND LOOK AT SHIT SELL SOME STUFF" games and this is pretty solid. The description of the experiences and planets you encounter do a pretty a good job at building this universe and the economy in this game is simple but fun to work with. 

My only real gripe is that despite all the increasing stats and such, the primarily roleplaying elements are pretty barebones and a lot of events start to bleed together. But I guess that's just inevitable for a game that essentially can just go on-and-on if you play it right.
