An adventure-packed space game, June 17, 2025

With strong writing, an interesting setting and plenty of content, Apex Patrol is another strong entry in the HG line. This title is one of the oldest games in the library (I remember when it was $1 on the iphone app store) but still remains a great game even by today's standards.

The writing is strong, providing interesting descriptions of the sci-fi world and raising the suspense and thrill during missions. Unfortunately, like Tin Star, the prose can get very heavy at times, but this isn't something I'll take a star off for.

There is also a pretty solid stat system where you decide your ship's upgrades and so on. The stat screen is a bit messy to look at, being all text, but again, this wasn't too big of an issue.

I did pretty well on my first run, completing most missions successfully and defeating the main villain right at the end. In sum, this was definitely a fun adventure, and one worth taking a look at.
