Fargo rated Voyageur

Fargo rated a game 5 years ago
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux.

A very mellow sci-fi romp to the center of the galaxy. It's a menu-driven narrative game, essentially text-only, chronicling the player's one-way trip through a dazzlingly diverse cosmos. You can shuttle goods from system to system, upgrade your ship, take on passengers and crew, and possibly get into some trouble with the locals. 

While the writing wonderfully captures the atmosphere of a hard sci-fi novel,  the procedurally-generated planets blur together pretty quickly. It's difficult to strategize, and you soon feel that you're just spinning a stellar roulette wheel in the hopes of your winnings carrying you forward.

A zen game with descriptive writing and mellow music, great for short sessions but not something that you could get immersed in over the long term.
