Nomad (a.k.a. Project Nomad) Adventure Space exploration
Rating: 9.02 (304 votes)
One of the most overlooked classics of all time, this is essentially Starflight with a much more developed and interesting plot (although with less sophisticated details and interface): an alien ship that's mysteriously crashed into earth suddenly gives mankind the hyperdrive technology. As the captain, you must pilot the craft into unknown worlds to find out its origins. Despite ridiculously simplistic combat, the game has many memorable alien characters and trade goods. It's also very non-linear, and there's *plenty* of dialogue and sub-plots. Two thumbs up!Reviewed by: Underdogs
