XenoMiner review by drelbs

I must admit I'm having a lot more fun with this than expected... The game already stared out playing well & gorgeous - once I figured out how to craft items (the menu/interface for this is a little klunky and not explained at all, it took me what seemed like forever to realise I could make things other than O2 refils) the game really took off. It's been fun jumping blind into a new game like this, it reminds me of playing Minecraft in alpha before every little thing was documented. I'm not going to even try to read up on this one, I'm just gonna play and enjoy it. :) I'd recommend this to anyone who wants a challenging space survival game and enjoys destructable terrain. Of course Minecraft is an obvious comparison, but think 3079 with a lot less combat and a lot more digging. It really reminds me of the iOS game called LunaCraft - especially the way the vegitation/lights work.I must admit I'm having a lot more fun with this than expected...
