Billed as an ambitious space opera, Epic spent over two years in development, only to end up as a simplistic shooter—albeit sprinkled with some stunning animated sequences.
The controls are fairly straightforward (mouse-based), but the game offers almost no guidance on what you’re supposed to do. Much of the experience’s charm lies in the manual, where you’ll uncover the story, detailed mission briefings, and, incidentally, the secondary controls and cheat codes.
