![]() ![]() DarkStar One was a top secret ship developed by Kayron’s late father. Meanwhile, deep within Terran (human) space a young man named Kayron Jarvis receives his first ship, the DarkStar One, from Robert, a family friend. With the Thul attacks on the rise and their targets becoming increasingly larger, the various races are bracing for what could be an inter-cluster war. As the game begins a series of indiscriminant and seemingly unrelated attacks by a sixth race known as the Thul have stirred up controversy and put the military forces of the various races on high alert. In the years following a grand galactic war, five sentient races have formed the Galactic Union, a United Nations -like government that rules across the known galaxy. DarkStar One, originally released back in 2006, featured a determined focus on exploration, deep combat, and an objective story, but, four years on, can its console port, DarkStar One Broken Alliance, capture that same awe I felt as a kid?ĭarkStar One takes place in far future, at a time in which humanity has spread out to the stars, encountered extraterrestrial life, and established itself as a permanent race in the vastness of space. Nowadays we have titles that fill that need like Eve Online, X, and Star Trek Online but none of these can really capture that unique feeling that a single-player space simulator can bring you. Long gone are the glory days of Tie Fighter, Freespace, and Wing Commander each of which were pinnacles of the genre. Space simulators are starting to become hard to come by these days.
