Average space shooter, lots of voice acting and cut scenes, noticeable Engrish (actually Czenglish).

By HoerWolf | Review Date:
I bought Alpha Prime because it was on sale on Steam for only $4.99, and because I like first person shooters.

I have a 3 monitor gaming PC, and it worked great across all 3x monitors, using SoftTH (Software TripleHead - http://www.kegetys.net/SoftTH/). I played the entire game on 3x 20.1" monitors at 4800x1200 pixels, and was still able to crank all the settings to max, using an NVIDIA GTX260 card.

The outside levels were nice, and the fact that you had to get / refresh your oxygen supply frequently made it interesting..
The ending was a little bit of a disappointment for me, since I expected it to be more difficult.
The language was a little annoying sometimes, due to the fact that the developers don't speak English natively, but (as far as I know) Czech, but it was tolerable...
All it all I'm not really complaining, and I only paid $4.99 for it on Steam...
