Is 3030 Deathwar Redux - A Space Odyssey worth it for you?
We tell you who should skip it, too.
Play it if you…
Good fit- Space-adventure players who want both ship combat and on-foot exploration
- Open-world explorers who prefer choosing missions and routes across star systems

Skip it if you…
Saves you a refund- Players seeking a tightly linear campaign may find the open world and choice of jobs less structured.
- Those looking for a single-mode experience may not enjoy switching between ship-based play and on-foot adventure sections.
- Players seeking a purely combat-focused game may find trading, exploration, and conversation take up too much of the experience.
Our take on 3030 Deathwar Redux - A Space Odyssey
The defining structural choice is the switch between top-down ship piloting and point-and-click exploration on foot, including visits to stations and derelict vessels.
What is 3030 Deathwar Redux - A Space Odyssey?
Play as space pilot John Falcon in an open-world adventure across a war-torn galaxy.
In top-down ship mode, explore 30 star systems, fight pirates, trade cargo, mine asteroids, and take on jobs. Ships can be bought and upgraded, while a jetsuit offers another way to travel and earn money. Leave the ship to board stations and derelicts, visit bars, speak with characters, and explore on foot in a point-and-click adventure mode. Missions and side quests unfold alongside a main story involving a missing shipment of gold, a stolen ship, and intergalactic intrigue. Star maps can lead to derelict vessels to explore and salvage, as well as hidden wormholes, stations, comets, and other secrets.
