10 itemsAbout the Game
Forsaken Portals is a top down space simulation game with accompanying story. It takes place in an open world - mankind has gained the know how to travel to other star systems of the Milky Way, discovered foreign races and cultures and wants to spread out and establish a human civilization in other star systems. The very big fame beckons for ship captains in the interstellar tournament, which mankind wants to win at any price.
Explore huge hand designed worlds in space, each of which has its own story to tell. Alien races, factories, resources, space stations, every world is different and exciting.
No one can survive alone in space. Trade with alien races to ensure your survival and build a trading empire. For traders there are also special ship modules that display helpful information about trade routes on the galaxy map.
Not all inhabitants in space are friendly. Sometimes it is necessary to defend oneself or to assert one's interests militarily. Experience turn-based battles that offer plenty of room for strategic and wise action.
Your ship is not fully responsible for your strength in a fight. To arm yourself most effectively, you need to find new weapon blueprints, build them and create a deck. The more you know about your opponent before the fight, the better you can pick your weapons.

Install modules in your ship to gain special abilities. Some modules help to locate resources, others show the trade goods of remote stations or help to get information about the armament of enemy ships.
An own space station offers the possibility to craft items, to maintain and improve the ship, to cultivate organic materials and serves as a base for exploring places that could not be reached otherwise.
Items, weapons, upgrades for ships and space stations, all this can be produced if you have access to the necessary materials.

Many years ago, an unknown species installed portals to travel through the galaxy. Unfortunately, they do not work anymore. Are you the one who can reactivate them and pave the way for the different races to travel again?
