Arken Age

In the 10- to 15-hour campaign, you explore the "neural corruption" infested world, collect items and encounter unique alien life forms. In the test, Arken Age received a MIXED rating of 4 out of 5 stars: "A visually appealing sci-fi adventure with a strong focus on combat and exploration, as well as a robust weapon upgrade system. However, we expected more from the story."
