Yes, they had some sort of free will.Īs for the story – You’re Bilbo, and only Thorin and Gandalf at your side. You know how video games these days love to talk to you about choices and different endings pending on your decisions? Well, in the 1983 Hobbit, characters would behave differently each time you played. Not just because of the graphics, but because of the mechanics. Quite a complicated and groundbreaking game at the time. It’s possible to play it without going through the first one, but it does take out some of the fun because Planetfall does an amazing job of developing the characters. It has the same main characters, the same type of puzzles and the same type of setting, with impending doom waiting around every corner. It might not have the graphics of GTA V, but the story is just as compelling and does an excellent job of drawing you in. It came out in 1983 and is the perfect game to introduce you into what the 1980s were like for a lot of gamers back then. Just as you are contemplating going absent without leave your fortunes take a dramatic turn and you find yourself in a situation that just may define the rest of your Stellar Patrol career. Obviously this is not why you enlisted in the Stellar Patrol. You have been assigned the rank of Ensign 7th Class and your most important duties are that of custodian. What’s going on in this one? Via Abandonia: The Planetfall story begins just after you have transferred to the Spaceship Feinstein where you’re superior, Ensign First Class Blather, is making your life miserable. Maybe the best one ever (despite promising not to rank them).
