What I especially liked, and I think distinguishes it from other, shorter Pacian games I�ve played (and would also recommend � especially Castle of the Red Prince), is the sense of depth to the world. Where Red Prince feels allusive, SVT is expository. For example, there are some characters who exist only to point the player to other locations to visit, from a mechanical point of view. And yet, the few sentences they�re given often give a sense not only of the politics and culture of the world, but also of the characters themselves. It�s pretty masterful to be able to do so much with so few words.

Meanwhile, Superluminal does as good a job as I�ve seen at a trade-and-exploration parser game, even including a little light grinding but without becoming too dull or frustrating.

Superluminal Vagrant Twin (2016) - Full Playthrough
jay___ram introduces ferkung to C.E.J. Pacian's space trading sim Superluminal Vagrant Twin from 2016. A fascinating use of parser to replace the typically point-and-click interface of those games, it's also a favorite genre of ferkung.
