Last night, Steph, Nick, Brian, Jeff, and Chris played Space Commander with me.  It was an interesting game full of many minigames.  These minigames were supposed to rotate between people, but we wanted to get used to the game and chose to not do that.  The game was very difficult, confusing, and complex.  I did not like the game at all.  I don’t think I would have liked it much better had I been at a different station.  I was playing the Helm station and controlling where the ship went, which was decently easy.  I was able to get where I wanted most of the time, but not all the time.  We landed on the crystals many times, but were never really set up to pick them up because we were focusing on killing the enemies.  It would have been much better to zoom in, pick up the crystals, and zoom out.  I don’t think I’m willing to play this game again.
