While it may not tick every box in the quality department, there is something to be said for a game with an interesting core and Out There: Oceans of Time does hit that mark. It’s a story and universe that really offers a unique feeling sci-fi experience, and with a little time this ocean of stars could be more than worth flying through, even if there needs to be some more stability prior to that occurring.

Out There: Oceans of Time is barely a skeleton of a game without a single shred of gameplay meat on its styrofoam bones. It’s simply a highly repetitive chore replete with meaningless and unengaging systems that seem to have little impact on you as the player or the game’s world. One of the worst crimes any game can commit is being boring — Out There: Oceans of Time is certainly guilty of that.

Out There: Oceans of Time is a game where if you engage it purely on its gameplay, it works well enough. There will be times when it becomes a very mechanical gameplay loop, but there is enough here to satisfy a roguelike fan. The promise of a rich world beyond the stars however feels incredibly distant, and ultimately makes the entire experience a very unremarkable one.

Out There: Oceans Of Time looks gorgeous and has a remarkably creative setting, but is too mechanically complex. An inadequate tutorial doesn’t do enough to prepare players for Out There‘s unforgiving resource management, and the game’s narrative elements feel directly at odds with frustrating roguelike features.

Out There: Oceans of Time è un gioco difficile da digerire per chi non sia avvezzo al genere e richiede un certo impegno per evitare di dover ricominciare da capo la partita. È consigliato ai fan dei precedenti titoli della serie, che di certo non rimarranno delusi dalla grande mole di contenuti al suo interno.
