Over the past couple of years such as No Man’s Sky, Elite Dangerous and Stellaris all bring deep space exploration to the forefront of PC gaming. Problematic controls caused the game to be less enjoyable.
COGconnected: The Long Journey Home makes another stop on its list of destinations, this time landing on Nintendo's immensely popular handheld, the Switch. Much like its other iterations, The Long Journey Home shows promise, but also stumbles more often than not.
The Long Journey Home provides a procedurally-generated universe that your rag tag crew of four finds themselves on the wrong side of. The game thrives in the mundane, with resource management being your prime objective. Unique interactions with alien species provide some much-needed flavor, but it’s hard to get past how easily damageable your ship is.
