A fantastic story with numerous posibilities depending on how the players explore, and interact. Properly handled, there's a fun twist and some great horror! Can't wait to see the Second Edition!

Haven't actually played/run this yet, but I'd like to. This book is a straightforward adventure to get a thing and get out in a hurry, of course with something going wrong along the way. (Looks like it was inspired by Vernor Vinge, which is a good thing.) I had to flip around in it to figure out where everything was -- room tags like "A1" might have helped -- but otherwise it's laid out well. The writer spells out alternate endings, a red herring, and ways to blackmail your employer or tie this story into a larger plot, and those things are marked with convenient icons. So, this adventure would work well as a one-shot or as part of a campaign. It's also written to work as an intro to the game, partly because of how the payment works: "Here, borrow this starter equipment and you can buy it at half price afterward if you want." (That, and it doesn't rely on knowing a lot about the setting in advance.) A good adventure at a low price.

Has lots of good tense moments, nothing like being in a spacesuit to keep you on edge! Really loved the story with this one!

I haven't had a chance to play through this scenario yet (still gathering players and reading through the handbook, among other things) but, as an introductory session for the game itself, it seems to be a very interesting one. It's got the sci-fi hook, the intrigue, the mystery, all the things a good session needs. I read through it and, I gotta say, I was NOT expecting the sorts of twists and turns it throws in. Suffice to say, I can't WAIT to run this scenario with my friends.

Not a bad little package at all! A quick and dirty 3 player + encounter set on an orbital space-station in the HSD universe, this expansion provides a little more insight into the environment and corporate mindset of HSD than we get in the core book. It needs the core HSD Rulebook to be run, seeing as it doesn't have any rules in it itself, but I found the quick reference icon guide very handy, and the plotline itself is pretty well set out with a fair bit of flexibility for player actions. This encounter is also time-critical, which can be very fun and tension building, but you'd need to make sure your party are ok with rushing madly from point to point as the clock tics down as some groups can find it rather stressful. Also, if your party really balls up the rolls it's more than possible to completely fail the encounter, making it very short lived and rather dull if your party get the "worst" ending. Still, the "Best" ending is very exciting, and can happily lead into future encounters.

Not a bad little book.
