A solid, cleverly made game with great replay value, Jul 14, 2008
by Steve K (East Lyme, CT USA)
Some developers create gorgeous graphics in order to entice potential customers to buy their games. They make them beautiful to play, easy to learn, and most notably entertaining only the first couple times one plays the game. Smugglers 3 is not one of those games. It is commendable that instead of focusing on compelling graphics and realistic gameplay, Niels Bauer has fashioned a game with a clever intriguing interface and in-depth plot that provides for infinite replays. When I bought Smugglers 2 (one of the only games I have bought), after falling in love with the demo, I was hooked on the series (I bought Smugglers 3 recently as well). The ability to make a fortune in one of several roles, making allegiance to one of several factions, and being able to customize the ship that you battle your heart out in makes the Smugglers series one of the greatest inexpensive games out there. Really looking forward to Smugglers 4, two thumbs up Niels Bauer!

This game is a fun game is you like sci-fi. It has a slow plot at first but it gets lots better the more you play. the goal of this game is to be come a top general and lead your side to victory or turn rouge and lead the rebels if you hate the fighting you can just peace fully trade your way to fame.




Revolutionary Sci-fi rpg, May 02, 2008
by Sten (San Francisco, CA USA)
Smugglers 3 is the third in a line of RPG space warfare games. Its comprehensive gameplay pales in comparison to all others of its type. The storyline not only involves war, but trading as well, and this game introduces the conceptt of aging. There are countless star systems and planets, and there are ghost ships to loot, treasure to discover, and spies to uncover. i suggest this game not only for video game lovers, but science fiction lovers. Unlike most games with this free flowing style, in this game, the factions revolve between war and peace. YOU actually have an affect on how said wars turn out. In the add-on package, you can even pursue love.

This games is relatively well designed multiple choices make it interesting. the graphics and sound could use some work. the starship fights are turn based which is a little disappointing but they are still we though out. all and all one good games designed for more of the serious gamer type.




Sumgglers 3, The Most Futuristic Game Ever, Mar 08, 2008
by Nightsong (Sacramento, CA USA)
Smugglers 3, is a Epic Futuristic RPG based on 4 factions; The Fedaration,The Outer Rim Alliance,The Syndicate,And The Coalition. The factions wage war and ally. You can do missions and gain enough money to buy powerful ships. The ships are from Starwolf Starfighters, to Gladiator Battlecruisers. And weapons are the exicting parts. As soon as you get the Gladiator Battlecruiser, you now control the strongest weapon in the game; The Tachyon Turrets. With more than 30 planets, Smugglers 3 is truly the "Power Overwhelming" size. At a reasonable price, buying the game is absolutely worth it.When you become old and retire, you can make another character on a different faction. Slightly better than Dark Orbit Online,but they are no match one on one. Once you play, you will be surely be "Locked On" your computer. Being in the heat of battle can be breathtaking. That is, because Smuggler 3’s random Starship generator can suddenly generate a strong ship! Smugglers 3 is a Truly Epic game.

I went through the 250 turn demo so quickly I was flabbergasted and cursing the time limit because i wanted more, More, MORE!!!" - Captain Ed! from Sacramento,CA USA, 5/5 stars
