Thus, you can see that there are a few flaws inherent in the Space Hack system. In spite of that, for 20 bucks, I can't say that I wouldn't pick it up just because it's a nicely shaped sci-fi-flavored potato in the big sack of Diablo clones. I will hazard to say that games like Phantasy Star Online or Restricted Area bring the same thing to the table in different forms, but admittedly none of them have the direct simplicity that Space Hack does. If anything, it has to be respected for being a filtered and extremely direct version of the Diablo-in-space formula. It may not be great or awe-inspiring, but when you need to hit things for pleasure, there it is.
