Video games

The game use 3D graphics with a top-down view and combines features from space trading simulators and action role-playing games. Play is open-ended: activities available include trading, missions, exploration, bounty hunting, space piracy, and police work.[7] Game Tunnel rated Flatspace 9.5 out of 10, and were impressed with the tracking of every individual ship, found the battle with different scale ships to be "exhilarating" and the varied, open-ended gameplay to be enjoyable.[8]
