July 2025

A Hidden Gem for Space Pirate Fans Rebel Galaxy feels like the spiritual successor to the naval combat system from Assassin’s Creed: Black Flag — but set in space. The ship battles are weighty and tactical, with broadside cannons and positioning playing a key role. If you enjoyed the naval warfare in Black Flag, you'll feel right at home here. What makes this game really shine is the freedom it gives you. You can earn your money through bounty hunting, trading, or pure combat — or just by taking advantage of market fluctuations across different star systems. It’s up to you whether you want to become a feared pirate, a respected trader, or a ruthless mercenary. The faction system adds another layer of depth. Your reputation with pirates, military forces, and other groups changes based on your actions, opening up new missions — or new enemies. It makes the galaxy feel reactive and alive. Overall, Rebel Galaxy is a surprisingly deep and engaging space adventure that deserves more attention than it gets.

A fun little space romp game. Not too complicated trying to be one of the "X franchise" games or tedious like some other space sims that feel more like a "point and click adventure in Excel" Here's a ship, here's how you fly it, here's how you use your "old school pirate ship" broadsides. Go be the best little murderhobo in the galaxy. Story is a bit mid range, missions sometimes repetitive or grindy, but then again its not trying to be "Game of the Year" either. Its an old school space sim from 2015. If you grew up on games like this, you'll have fun. This is a game I often come back to just for some lighthearted "fly around and blow shit up" vibes. Thumbs up I do recommend :)

May 2025

There are two types of space games: the top-down RTS style games that have about as much action as a spreadsheet, and dogfighting games that require you to have a joystick and actual piloting skills. Rebel Galaxy is somewhere in the middle. Its space fighting can best be described as "battleships firing broadsides at one another". It's a simplified space flight model, 'technically' 3D, but all the action happens in a 2D plane. It's frantic enough to be fun, but still simple enough for non-pilots to master. The world of Rebel Galaxy has elements of questing, trading, piracy, and exploration. I would compare it to Freelancer from the 90s. It's all very simplified, of course, because it's a budget title, but getting 20 solar systems with a dozen planets each is still a ton of bang for your buck! Do we really need 10000 planets to be entertained? The characters are sarcastic, the battles are plentiful, the 'space country' soundtrack sets a great atmosphere. Pilots will trash talk you over comms. The whole thing has a lot of attitude and charm. It reminds me of Fallout 1 / 2. I didn't notice any major bugs, kudos to a small but efficient dev team. Two thumbs up, a diamond in the rough!

Jan. 2025

Rebel Galaxy is an arcadey space game about how dope it would be if Assassin's Creed: Black Flag's ship combat were in space.

Dec. 2024

I didn't know what I was buying when I got Rebel Galaxy. I expected a dumb indie game. I was wrong. Rebel Galaxy is simple in concept, but all the game mechanics come together to create a deeply immersive and compelling experience. Put simply, the game is a lot of fun... just pure fun. It doesn't punish you, it doesn't make you grind, but you still feel you've earned everything you got. It gives you purpose and meaning to everything you do which makes you want to fire it up randomly throughout your day. I highly recommend this game.
