Transcendence is a 2.5D free to play sci-fi PC space trading game that runs along the lines of the Space Rogue, Elite, Eve Online, and the X (Beyond the Frontier, Terran Conflict, etc) series. Though weighing in at only a tiny 17MB, the game provides surprising deep gameplay for its size, letting players have free reign on what they want to do---play as a simple drifter running supplies among the many space stations; as a guardian of the myriad galactic enclaves; and even as a bounty hunter hunting down space outlaws.

Join me as I embark on my journey to the Galactic Core. I need all my luck as there are many threats the vastness of space harbors, chief among them a low YouTube viewer count.

I'll be posting a review of this game in the next few weeks. Meanwhile, here are my reviews of other free to play PC shooter games: http://imbacore.blogspot.com/search/label/Free%20FPS

Part 12 - Where I stumble on an ice plant that sells alcholic beverages and find out that it needs fuel rods. Trading with it finally allow me to scrounge up the credits to buy a 50 Megawatt reactor, a Tritium Propulsion Upgrade, and a Monopole Shield Generator. Now I can take on more outlaws (or run away from them) without breaking a sweat. ^_^

Next part: Buy and sell Nebula Beer, Centauri Rice, Ice Moss, and Ice Vodka. Also will explore another sector and see what it holds.

Part 11 - Where I get busy shuttling back and forth the Eridani and Groombridge sectors trading ore for credits. I also warp in to the Orgos sector and find a facility selling sheets of armor meant for space stations. I wonder if I can install them on my ship? I also lay waste to three outlaw stations and meet a new type of ship with heavy armor plating and light screens (weird design decision by the ships' engineers).

Questions:

1. Do other devices share the same slot pool with weapons? (Answer: no, each item consumes one slot.)
2. I forgot: How many device and weapons slots does the E1500 have? (Answer: http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151532002019468&set=a.389154384467.194634.116311444467&type=1&relevant_count=1)
3. Titanium Barriers meant for stations: Can they be installed on ships?(Answer: 7 Device Slots)
4. I read somewhere that the freighter's cargo hold can't be expanded anymore. Is this true? (Answer: Titanium barricades can be installed on ships, but they have less resistances than usual.)
