Smugglers 5: Invasion Reviews

I am pretty happy that I used a -90% coupon to buy this game. It's hardly worth more then 1 €.

Reminds me of 2005 games. The throwback was really great. I mean, in it's current price I don't think I suggest getting this game, it's a bit not worth it but if you have a coupon (which I did) go try this out. Pretty cool game but, well. Just don't get without a coupon.

Just a heads up Well this game was sweet for 10 minutes. Then i get this screen "Cant render window modal" everytime i click on any of the button att he bottom. which is how you essentially play the game. searching google with "smugglers 5 can't make a visible window modal" list ALOT of this problem. so since the game was released Oct 16, 2014 and they must of stopped workin gon it according to the forums. This game is a waste of money it seems. maybe they will fix it..... but as companys go anymore. lets push it out the door and forget it. sorry to see that

Turn based game with an open world. You can engage in trade, war, investment. Fights are step by step and strange. The idea is great, but play is boring.

Its a lot like smuggler's v base game with just a few added features and a new alien race. I would say if you like a casual game, then this is okay.

I bought both Smugglers 5 and Smugglers 5: Invasion before they launched on Steam. Both games are great. When I was a child I got Smugglers 2 as a gift. When Smugglers 5 came out, I immediately bought it for my own child. This expansion adds a lot of new content and playing an alien race for the first time in the series is great.

Tags: Tactical - Space Crew Sim Additional Tags: Delete Local Content & Remove from Library TLDR: This action oriented mod/reskin of SmugglersV suffers from the same lack of fun interactivity as the original. Outcompeted by the likes of Star Renegades. Unfortunately this game's shortcomings is easily made up for even by small indie teams, and the amount of selection we have for tactical spaceship combat games has really expanded a lot in the years since this came out. https://store.steampowered.com/app/651670/Star_Renegades/?curator_clanid=32938512 https://store.steampowered.com/app/651660/Halcyon_6_Starbase_Commander_LIGHTSPEED_EDITION/

Just finished the toturial. Seems like a fun game with loads of depth. ... and now I have played it for many hours, and I feel that the game lacks depth. The graphics are very simple, the music is repetetive, and the story is simple. I really tried to like this game, but in the end I had to concede that it just is not very good.

Relative to its predecessor, Smugglers 5 Invasion is a bad sequel. Because devs are too lazy, there have a lot of unacceptable designs and bug in the game. Cons: - Although there only has two factions, but some parts of manual still not change the description of four factions. - Music is too loud. Player can't turn down the volume. - You can't explore most of new alien planets if you are a Federation pilot. I think those devs didn't write any new story about Federation. - It's very difficult for Federation to win the war. First you must capture a pirate cruiser. Then use Nuclear Mine to kill some enemy crews in a battleship. Try to capture a battleship or carrier is the next step. But time is limited. If you are too late to capture them, Jalkath Empire will conquer two thirds of star systems. - Sadly, you have no time to explore every planet and finish side quests. Because the speed of Jalkath invasion is too fast. - Unlike Smugglers 5 Secession, you can't continue play after you beat the game.

I'll start off by saying that Smugglers V is an enjoyable game. Despite zero polish, the game is a fun "one-more turn" experience, and if you let yourself, you can get immersed in the setting. However, Smugglers V: Invasion is the exact same game, with a little less variety. The hook of Invasion is you can no longer play as the factions: Coalition, Syndicate, and Outer Rim, but can now play as the Kilrathi from Wing Commander. There are some improvments from Smugglers V to Invasion, but it's price tag of 10$ is just too steep for the same game again, and I'll probably just go back and play Sumgglers V vanilla cause of the faction variety.
