One player takes the role of Space Marine Terminators, superhuman elite. In the game, a space hulk is a mass of ancient, derelict space ships, asteroids, and other assorted space debris. The game is set in the fictional universe of Warhammer 40,000. Not to everyone's taste but well worth a go. Space Hulk is a board game for two players by Games Workshop. Alien Assault (formerly Space Hulk) isn't pushing the boundaries of game design but it's a neat, efficient and well-polished conversion of a very popular tabletop game. If there's a criticism that could be levelled against the game it's that it's brutally difficult but, for that, look to the source material. If you don't like pixel art then just say so. Everything becomes a bit blocky if you up the res because it's all pixel art but the tiles are all perfectly serviceable and parts of the UI are extremely impressive. It doesn't have a fullscreen mode but it does have a number of options for upscaling the resolution so the text shouldn't be a problem. ![]() That's some pretty unnecessary defamation. Pass this one up, and wait for the space hulk mod for DoW 2. Think a downgraded version of pacman, with tiny text that strains the eyes, no fullscreen mode, and sprites that look like atari 2600's frogger. I don't see how such a bad game could become a classic.
