Gameplay

Journey is part of the "Great Little Game Line" series, and this is a game in which ships from multiple worlds are attempting to obtain the coveted plienthium mangate from the Epsilon Cygni II system. [1]

Reception

Tony Watson reviewed Journey in The Space Gamer No. 31. [1] Watson commented that "Despite the interesting use of cards, I can't find much to recommend in this game. Most gamers will tire of it quickly, and the price [...] would be much better spent, in terms of play value, in picking up two or three of the various Micros and capsule-format games on the market."
