![]() The missions are usually some variations on a theme of either hunting down enemy ships that come in increasing waves of difficulty or protecting something from waves of enemies that come in ever increasing waves of difficulty. You also get a team of other Manticore pilots that will assist you on your missions who are pretty well-written companion characters, each with their own personalities and unique ships. The graphics are clean and make it easy to interpret where the action is happening, which can sometimes get quite chaotic with ships coming from all directions and many larger objects occupying the mission’s space like large capital ships and space stations. You use the right stick to increase or decrease your throttle and push left and right to do barrel rolls in order to avoid incoming attacks. You use the left stick of the controller to turn the ship left and right and pitch it up and down. ![]() As you progress, you can purchase new ships and equipment that will allow you to tackle bigger and better enemies. There is quite a large galaxy to explore, with major bosses that occupy each region for you to hunt down and collect their bounty. The game puts you in command of a fighter ship as a member of a group of space vigilantes called the Manticore, who make their way through the galaxy protecting people that can’t protect themselves. The game is simple enough and for players that aren’t looking for an overly complex spaceship simulation but want the fun of flying a cool ship and blowing up bad guys. While it isn’t quite as polished as the aforementioned games, it is a nice addition in a genre that doesn’t have a lot of standouts. If you like games like Starfox, or the old Wing Commander games, you should definitely keep your eyes on the game Manticore: Galaxy on Fire.
