Evaluation

Precursors is a 2017 Steam release of what was originally a 2009 game by Deep Shadows. The store description focuses entirely on describing the base game's features — open-world RPG/FPS/space simulator gameplay, quests, and exploration — with no mention of planned DLC, expansions, seasons, or future updates. There are no DLC listings of any kind, no roadmap communications, and no developer news posts on record. The store page reads as a straightforward product description for a complete, shipped game. With no post-launch content activity, no developer communications about future updates, and no unreleased content listed anywhere, this game launched as a finished product and remains so.

About this game

Precursors, predecessors, the legend of galaxy… Who are carrying the forebear’s genes among existing races, we can suppose only…
Worlds of galaxy are everlasting, beautiful, unique and dangerous. Some of them are inhabited, some ruined and deserted, other - just a smugglers trans-shipment stations.

Some worlds are only at the beginning of evolution, other are falling into decay. Only when you’ll pass through all these worlds, sense a heat of blazing lava-seas and chilling cold of abysses, see the stark heavens, you will realize the real power of nature. Only when you’ll meet corrupt judges, mendacious politicians, unselfish protectors and cruel tyrants you’ll understand passions of society. When you’ll reach an unexplored sectors of galaxy and come across a mysterious natural phenomenon, fly through the tail of the comet or dive into the casual portal, only then you’ll perceive the infinite depth and diversity of the universe.

But this is just a prospection and nobody knows what exactly this journey will be, we can only assure you that it will be unforgettable…
