You play as John, a pilot, or more accurately the person shooting stuff. Most of the real Star Horizon is a 3D, on rails, space shoot-em-up. Most of the real control is done by the Artificial Intelligence known as Ellie, who will talk to you as you play. Since my name is real life is John, I must say it all felt very personal! This sounds familiar!

You are involved in an accident, whereby you are put into hibernation by the mothership, Ellie, the ships AI, wakes you up years later, and you have no idea where you are or what is going on.

As you play, you will quickly learn that this is an on rails shooter, meaning that you go where the AI takes you, and with the exception of some quick time events, whereby you need to choose an option of what to do next, all directional activities are controlled for you.

Your job is to shoot stuff. The targeting mechanics aren't the best, but you soon get used to how it all works, and you will quickly find out that accuracy isn't that important.

As you destroy enemies, and complete sections, you will earn points, these points can be used in the hangar, between levels, to upgrade your ship. There are just 10 levels, and 3 main bosses to beat. You gain up to 3 stars for completing a level, and you will find that you will need to replay levels over and over to get points to upgrade your ship and weapons, so that you can get strong enough to progress, beat bosses and so on, this does bring some longevity to what would otherwise be a short game.

The quick time events which affect the storyline, are a good idea, and give the game some replay options, to see what differences there is, if you had chosen differently, examples of choices are to help friends or ignore them, help a space merchant or fight them.

The Good As this is an on rails shooter, it means that the developers have had plenty of time to make the 3D graphics look fantastic, the soundtrack is good, and the AI voice is also quite entertaining. The Bad Only 10 levels, and many people do not like "On Rails" shooters since they do lack the freedom of a regular 3D shooter.

Overall A cheap game, that does entertain, and despite its limitations, looks good and plays well. Essential Links. Current Switch Games Full List ». By Metascore By user score.

I like this game a lot for its graphics and overall gameplay, but there are definitely issues to solve when it comes to balance.

I think that enemies in easy mode should be nerfed, as they are clearly hard to fight starting with Chameleon. This is a brilliantly made game! The game is easy to pick up but it is hard to master. The graphics are very impressive for a mobile game and while the music and the voice acting isn't the best, it is serviceable. Honestly, this is one of my favorite games to play on my phone and I have zero complaints.
