About
Sigma Star Saga DX is a refined version of the unique 2005 adventure / RPG / shoot ’em up hybrid.
Originally released for the Game Boy Advance by Namco, Sigma Star Saga is a unique sci-fi adventure game. It switches between exploring worlds from a top-down perspective and fast-paced, side-scrolling space combat. Players take on the role of Ian Recker, a skilled Earth pilot, and must go undercover within the invading Krill empire to defeat them. The game features a variety of planets to explore, interesting characters to meet, and a huge collection of weapons and upgrades that can be combined to create powerful ship configurations.
Celebrating its 20th anniversary, Sigma Star Saga DX offers the same gameplay and story as the original, but with many improvements. These include a better map, fewer random battles, a more balanced leveling system, refined character hitboxes, tweaked auto-fire, expanded dialogue, more save locations, and various bug fixes and quality-of-life enhancements.
