Drox Operative Review

Rock, Paper, Shotgun’s Adam Smith has written a “Wot I Think” review for Soldak Entertainment’s Drox Operative, and offers what is perhaps one of the most positive write-ups on the title so far:

At first, it’s a little vague and clumsy, like a drunk politician, but once you allow your eyes to adjust, the bar that fills when a planet is explored might just become an image of forests coming into view, and diplomatic dealings with an aggressor, bombarding a friendly planet from orbit, could become a tale for the ages. While it doesn’t have the flashy, immediate appeal of a conventional Pinata-popper like Diablo, Drox Operative provides the greater gift of a world in which the action part of ARPG has consequences, as does inaction.

It’s the advancement of the genre that so many people have given up on searching for and Soldak have been providing it for years.
