Kaos Joker's Adventure on: FTL

FTL is a very unique game. You are flying a ship away from a rebel armada chasing you to stop you from telling the federation they are coming. You jump from point to point on a map to get to the end and jump to the next sector. Each point you jump to, you run into a random encounter which can be any thing from traders needing help fight off pirates or a Diplomat giving you a new space ship to use in the next campaign.

When you jump to a new point, you see your ship can are presented with a random event of are able to access a store to buy stuff for your ship. 

When controlling your ship, you move the little crew men walking around. They can be assigned to different roles to change the effectiveness of the ships systems. If you place them on the shields, they recharge quicker for example. 

The ship can be upgraded with new systems and weapons bought from the shop or you can upgrade the effectiveness of the the ships current systems by giving it more shields, a bigger power core ect... 

The combat is done in real time. Your weapons charge and then you choose a room in the enemy ship to fire into. You get drones to help you fight and you can also send crew members into the enemy ship to sabotage the enemy systems.

The game is very addicting but can also be insanely frustrating. The last mission requires an amazing ship and a ton of game knowledge to defeat the boss. You must defeat the boss to get the next ship to play it all again with the new ship. As I said before, you can be lucky and get the ships through random encounters.

As annoying as the game is, its insanely fun to play (apart from loosing your awesome ship to an enemy that has one too many shields for you to handle.) It has brought me hours of enjoyment and I usually do 2-3 sessions every time i play because loosing once isn't enough! I bought it in the sale and I recommend waiting for a sale to get this game.

Thank you for reading and join me next time for another great adventure :)
