18The introductory cutscene from the classic DOS-based Microprose game, Lightspeed. I'm not sure how to classify the game. It's a space adventure that shares concepts with space sims/shooters and strategy games too.
Released in 1990, Lightspeed is an impressive polygon-based 3D game in which you pilot the Trailblazer. This ship is an exploratory vessel out to collect needed resources, make alliances, clear up foes, and find a habitable planet for all of civilization. Time is limited because the colony ship housing civilization can't support its population forever.
Running in DOSBOX, of course.
