About Sword of the Stars: The Pit - Osmium Edition

About this game

Enjoy the hit roguelike action Indie like never before with your Sword of the Stars: The Pit - Osmium Edition Steam PC key. This jam-packed edition includes the base game, Sword of the Stars: The Pit - Gold Edition DLC, and Sword of the Stars: The Pit - Mind Games DLC!

WHAT LIES BEYOND
A deadly plague ravages your world. Your last hope: a legendary alien facility dug deep into the Feldspar Mountains...a massive Pit, built by the ancient Suul'ka. If 'The Pit' really exists, there might be something left. Something that will give your doctors a fighting chance at the cure. All you know for sure is that every expedition into those mountains has failed to return...

And Nothing Sows Death Like the Suul'ka.

THE POPULAR GAME JUST GOT BETTER
Since its first demo was released in the Fall of 2012, The Pit has become an indie hit with its blend of Roguelike action and sci-fi depth. Players were challenged to survive 30 floors of The Pit using one of three characters - the Marine, Engineer, and Scout.

In The Pit: MindGames, players were given two new characters - the Psion and the alien Tarka Ranger – and ten more floors to survive through, as well as a wealth of new items, recipes, weapons, and nasty creatures to fight!

FULLY LOADED
This edition does not only gives you the game, the expansion, and all the free content, it also adds three new playable characters - The Hiver Warrior, the Liir Seeker, and the Morrigi Striker!

Now you can test yourself against The Pit using all the major races from the Sword of the Stars universe!

Gold Edition DLC includes:

  • Three new Character classes, each from a different previously unplayable alien race.
  • Over 65 new items
  • Over 35 new monsters
  • Over 50 new messages which means lots of all new hidden recipes
  • 30 new weapons, including new alien weapons
  • Two new Biome levels - Snow and Desert
  • Two new play modes; Quick, which reduces the number of rooms per floor and Fast, which skips ever second floor!
  • Plus one hidden character, which you can unlock to help you out when things get tough!

 

YOUR OFFICIAL SWORD OF THE STARS: THE PIT - OSMIUM EDITION STEAM PC KEY INCLUDES:

  • Three new playable alien characters! The Hiver Warrior, Liir Seeker, and Morrigi Striker!
  • Eight Characters from 5 different Sword of the Stars races to play as... Marine, Scout, Engineer, Psion, Ranger, Warrior, Seeker, and Striker!
  • 40 Levels of ancient evil science between you and the cure, not to mention unique side areas, known as biomes!
  • Improve your character and increase your skills as you try and find a way to survive the depths.
  • Over 160 enemies drawn from the Sword of the Stars universe!
  • Over 110 weapons and over 45 armors with a variety of special effects including flamethrowers, rocket launchers, plasma cannons and powered Brawler armor!
  • Over 250 items, devices, and ingredients to find, ranging from the familiar to ancient exotic tech. Use stuff found around each level or on your enemies to craft together more than 100 new items!
  • Randomized augmentation effects (for your equipment... and for you!) make each game unique.
  • Develop 28 unique Psionic powers to better hold off opponents.
  • Five levels of difficulty, from Easy to Seriously? and three special modes; Infinite, where there is no end, Quick, which reduces the number of rooms per floor, and Fast, which skips every second floor!
  • Dozens of room types containing a host of exotic devices to help - or maybe hinder - your progress.
  • Discover and decipher hundreds of hidden messages, crafting recipes, and pieces of Sword of the Stars lore!
  • Many fiendish ways to die including poisoning, disease, traps, disintegration, radiation, dehydration, starvation and of course... MONSTERS.
  • Plus one hidden character, which you can unlock to help you out when things get tough!

It's an interesting little roguelike game that seems reminiscent of games from the late 90's on MSDOS. The inventory system feels reasonably tight, and the gameplay can be challenging (sometimes to a fault) but it's probably worth your time. Give it a swing if you're into punishing retro games.

I really like the original Sword of the Stars games, it's among my favorite space combat games. As a fan of that game, I appreciated the attempt to grow the setting, but ultimately I felt it didn't even start to live up to the original. If you like Sword of the Stars, then it's worth it for the price. If not, then you might want to give this one a pass.
