The Verdict
based on 12 reviews
“I do really, really enjoy this game. I think you guys should, uh, definitely take a look at the Kickstarter campaign, and they put a lot of work into it. You can totally tell it's got a little bit of Galaxy Trucker, which I really enjoy about it.”
“We've been a big fan of the Phase Shift games, they just kind of incorporate new and unique mechanics that just seem, uh, a little more fun and creative, and, uh, yeah, Drop Drive has been a good time.”
“Drop Drive Deeper Space Edition is an excellent game that’s so unique I can’t properly tag it with a genre. It combines a satisfying tactile nature with some pretty cool strategic gameplay.”
The reviewer highlights that Drop Drive delivers a surprisingly strategic and engaging space bounty hunter experience that doesn't outstay its welcome, packing galaxy navigation and combat neatly into a fast thirty-minute timeframe.
