I've always been a fan of space games, from Elite on the Commodore 64 to the Wing Commander series and beyond. The thought of venturing out in to the unknown for fun and profit has always been appealing to me, and some clever Icelandic folks have turned out a game that speaks directly to that part of the brain.

Explorers and traders, pirates and thugs, grizzled combat pilots and raw recruits, grubby space miners and monied industrialists, this game has something for just about everyone. The world is vast, spanning 7500 star systems, most of which are lawless frontier areas where the only rule is survival. Near the core of the galaxy a tenuous peace is maintained by the navies of the four ruling empires of the Eve universe.
