Ready to don your space-suit and experience the adventure of a lifetime? DarkStar One - Broken Alliance is your chance to do just that, as it combines fast and furious in-the-cockpit starship combat with a deep storyline involving love, family, betrayal and mysterious alien races spread across a vast and dangerous solar system.
Play as Kayron Jarvis, a young and ambitious space faring adventurer as he attempts to unravel a family mystery, braving the depths of space, encounters strange alien cultures and blasts his enemies to dust in his uniquely customisable ship - the DarkStar One.
DarkStar One: Broken Alliance sees players exploring the vast reaches of space, encountering, battling and trading with six mysterious alien races in a quest to unravel the mysterious death of the protagonist's father. Players can create their own career paths - be it brigand, mercenary, privateer, merchant or whatever mix they please, while buying (or capturing) alien technology to customise their highly adaptable ship, the DarkStar One, with hundreds of possible combinations of weapons, shields, armour and components.
- Enjoy an open-ended storyline that allows players to choose their path to fortune and glory - play as a privateer, mercenary, smuggler, trader or any combination of these - tweaking your ship's capabilities and tactics to best suit your style of play.
-
- Fully customise your ship with weapons, engines, shields and over 200 distinct components. Purchase the parts you need, or capture them from enemy ships. Turn the DarkStar One into a heavily armed freighter, fast attack boat, cruiser or whatever you like, all based on a massive variety of customisation options.
- Explore a universe comprised of more than 330 solar systems populated by six distinct alien races, each with their own technology, architecture and space combat tactics. Befriend aliens and trade with them for new equipment, or gun them down and take their technology - the choice is yours.
- A stunning full 1080p HD-powered 3D graphics engine, an intuitive user interface, more than 40 minutes of cut scene storytelling, and over 90 minutes of Dolby 5.1 channel surround sound music immerse the player in thrilling space combat and unpredictable encounters with alien races and exotic worlds.
- An innovative hybrid gameplay style effortlessly moves the player between story-driven adventure gaming and fierce space battles in full 3D, while a richly developed trading and customisation system seamlessly links the two modes of play.

I found this to be a good time killer between the period that game developers bring out their next top sellers. battles are fast paced and take skill, upgrading weapons was a must to keep up with the progressive story. you can choose a path to smuggling goods, being mercenary, enforcer etc... lots of options and you need to think a little when buying and trading in different star systems. i enjoyed it and am still playing it. if you want something fast paced and easy to complete this is NOT for you... this is for someone who has patience as it is a space RPG game not a fast paced shoot em up...
This is the worse game ive ever played!! Granted the cut scenes graphics are epic and cinematic but game play lets it down!! Ship is very hard to control, upgrades are slow and confusing, alot of travelling not much action.....i could be here all day simply awful, just awful......
I actually enjoyed this game a lot. It fills a void left by games like Wing Commander and X-Wing. The quality of the graphics isn't top notch, but if you are desperate after an old school space shooter, like I was, this does the job.
