Starts off slow with basic ships but once you get the fully decked out high level ships the game really comes alive, good game and free!

It's a great game that takes me back to fun I had in the arcade in the early 90s.

I play this on the main TV in the living room with a few mates and it's hours of fun.

Grab a couple of xbox controllers and kill everything!

Highly recommended!

Early Access Review
I have a love / hate relationship with this game.

As a player with a couple of friends Rust legacy was brilliant but spoilt by cheaters which was a shame, I must admit the game requires most of your spare time to build up on a busy server, a game you would need to play every day or you will no doubt be raided and lose everything.

Teamwork is essential, it is possible to be a lone wolf but you will be beaten down by teams eventually. I have been a server admin on a few servers but it really isn't much fun in the long run. I owned a server for a while, the amount of time required to maintain it, promote and look after the population was essentially a full time job. I can honestly say that blurring the lines between gaming and work is hardly fun or rewarding in the long run (unless you are making money of course!)

The new version of Rust started out extremely buggy and I did my part to report bugs and contribute via Reddit and the Facepunch forums, after a few months of doing this and not seeing much progress I gave up completely. The team at Facepuch are quite good as game developers but project management is certainly not one of their strong areas. To completely dump a game's development and start from fresh during the height of it's popularity was a bad decision.

It seems now that Rust has many of the features that legacy had and will no doubt become as great as the old version, I'm just not sure that the timing is right. Much of the community have had their fill of the game and have moved on, I don't want to slip back into playing for 8 hours a day as I have a busy life away from the computer. I have tried to get back into the game but find that the servers wipe far too often due to updates, when these are less frequent I may give it another shot.

I still recommend the game though, I have had many laughs with some great people while playing Rust. A game that can hold my attention for 700+ hours is definately a winner in my book even with it's flaws.

Well executed game, quite short and easy though, I had a team of six and more money than I could spend in no time, perhaps it's aimed as less experienced gamers. Well worth a go if you like management and if you understand the gaming industry from the early 80s.

I would really have liked this to go on alot longer and have more content.

Still, all things considered I would definitely recommend it!

This game is fantastic, one that I will never forget.

The voice over is well written and adds an atmosphere that I have not experienced before.

The graphics are pleasing to the eye and very smooth.

Highly recommended.

This is by far one of the best games I have ever played. The graphics are stunning and the story kept me on the edge of my seat. The puzzles can range range from fairly simple to very hard, I hate to admit I had to google a couple to find the solution. I never thought I would have fun in a single player game again but I could not stop playing this game until it was complete.

A must for any gamer! truly a work of art.

Captures the 70's Kung Fu feel and blends it with a well chosen soundtrack.

Wu-Tang Clan sound effects and some awesome combos make this game so much fun.

All arguments are now settled with Kings of Kung Fu.

9/10
10/10 with rice.
