Description: Become an ace pilot and mine the outer rim in Space Slam! Your objective: traverse the star systems of the Outer Rim and collect rare minerals crystals to transport back to base. However, your mining techniques are anything but conventional. In SPACE SLAM there is only one way to mine: ramming planets at full speed with your spacecraft. Try to maintain your momentum as you navigate the hazards of the Outer Rim systems. Your ship’s fuel is limited so keep an eye on your gauges and don’t stop slamming until you have enough minerals to advance to the next system.
Review: Space Slam is a space mining game in which you need to blast rocks and mine as much material as you can. But this is no Elite Dangerous, this is a really shallow game with very basic graphics, but it is still fun flying the ship around and making your stomach flip. I also enjoyed playing it with a gamepad which made it feel a little more action-based. But this is not worth £8.99 of anyone’s money unless you are going to challenge your own score over and over, there is nowhere near that amounts worth of content here. But grab it for a really low price and you will have fun flying around, but that is about it.
