About

By the year 2500, Earth had become toxic and unsafe for human life. Pollution and overpopulation had ravaged the planet, forcing humanity to the stars. Colonies and settlements soon sprung up across the solar system, but man had not left its thirst for war behind. Then, they learned their sun was dying, and everything changed. Only when faced with threat greater than each other did the nations of man finally come together. The United Colonies of SOL (UCS) was born, its first and only mission: to locate a new home for mankind, safely beyond the doomed borders of our solar system.

    SOL: Exodus is being sold for a paltry $9.99 on Steam, before sales. It's a superlative amount of content and refinement compared to many so-called "triple-A" productions that sell for six times that amount. Anyone looking for a good space dogfight should feel obliged to give it a try. It's even got a demo!

    Exodus is by no means a perfect game, but I love the rebirth of the space combat genre it heralds and the small number of missions has me looking forward to more. A solid, if bite-sized, space combat game that revitalizes a defunct genre with excellent flight combat and only a few missteps.

    That’s not to say that SOL: Exodus isn’t a good time. For the price, you’re definitely getting your money’s worth when it comes to space combat. Controls are simple, intuitive, and effective, and the visuals can really suck you into the experience – especially the first time you’re tracking an enemy ship and then see it sore past you at close proximity.

    Sol: Exodus may be a step in the right direction to bring back space combat games, but it certainly won't be the title that inspires a generation to demand more. Any gamer, and especially PC gamer, over 25 probably wants the genre to flourish like it used to, but a game like Sol, with all its bugs, repetitive levels and lackluster narrative, won't be what brings it back. Still, at least someone out there is trying.

    There's some amusement inherent in making bad guys go boom, but this $10 title never moves beyond that basic level of competency. I didn’t expect this little indie game to replace Starlancer or TIE Fighter in my heart, but I’m disappointed that it struggled to strike a single chord with my cherished memories of those classics.

    Letzten Endes ist SOL: Exodus eine nette kleine Indie-Space-Sim, deren Aufbau ein wenig an ein typisches Arcade-Spiel erinnert. Es reicht zwar nicht an die großen Vorbilder heran und ist keine allzu lange andauernde Befriedigung für eure Weltraum-Gelüste, aber sorgt zumindest für ein bisschen Unterhaltung.
