Galactic Junk League vs J.U.L.I.A.: Among the Stars
Galactic Junk League
Galactic Junk League is a pretty fun and competitive MMO shooter/space simulation game that has an incredible sandbox-styled spaceship crafting aspect and a unique theme which fuses good ol’ Western with a futuristic setting. The only obvious downside to the game is its very low player base, which resulted in multiple other issues, such as being not able to get into a match or getting yourself matchmade with players who are simply too high in level or unbalanced teams for the game to be fair. Hopefully, this problem will be corrected once the game is officially released and players will be able to actually enjoy playing the game.J.U.L.I.A.: Among the Stars
J.U.L.I.A.: Among the Stars is truly a game that's very unique. Despite its apparent appearance - it does look like "just another space sim", doesn't it? - the game is a fun and innovative, story-driven adventure game with a heavy dose of mystery added for good measure. In this game, you'll get to step into the spacesuit of Rachel Manners, a 35-year-old astrobiologist who initially embarked on a critical mission to explore and collect data on potentially habitable planets with a crew of of other elite and hand-picked scientists, but somehow, things went awry, and she found herself alone with J.U.L.I.A., the space probe's rather tempermental AI and Mobot, the reconnaissance robot.Driven by a need to know, you'll need to help Rachel search for clues which might potentially explain the mission's failure and the missing crew. You'll also get to travel to six widely varied planets where you can then get to work trying to reveal their secrets. There will be plenty of puzzles and mini-games in your journey as well just to give your brain some intense workout from time to time.
That said, the puzzles in the game can be a tad bit frustrating to solve, mainly because it's the sort of "trial and error" puzzle-type. So, unless you have a thing or two against this specific game mechanism, J.U.L.I.A.: Among the Stars is a really nice puzzle-adventure game to buy and play.
