What can I add that the others haven't already said? This was the FIRST RPG that I ever owned.
My buddies had OD&D and AD&D1e and I had MA. We would take turns GMing both. Yes, we even had a couple of 'crossovers' from D&D to MA and viceversa. I spent countless hours working on my version of the Warden.
The very first adventure I took them on had them hooked on MA. Naturally, it is very dated according to current standards, but you have a complete, playable set of rules with which you can have hours of fun. Many gamers today like having a 'bare-bones' system that they can house-rule or customize.
Try finding an original, printed copy of this game (I still have mine). It will cost you big bucks. Releasing it in .pdf format was a godsend, and will hopefully bring fresh fans.
I own an extensive collection of OOP RPGs and supplements. Having them available in pdf format is great in case of a fire or other type of disaster.
Buy it, try it! You can't go wrong for the price of a single meal at McDonalds.

I was one of the playtesters for this module, and all I can say, is that it was a ton of fun! Once I received the final product, I noticed all of the suggestions and tables to customize your own RHMDU. They are truely astounding! Game masters can use these tables for populating other structures on the fly. Truely a great (must have) product for Metamorphosis Alpha.

Another great product by PIGames! In this game, you play a zombie, rather than playing against zombies. It is also a fun read!

DISLIKED: Nothing! Excellent value!

What can one say, but that PIGames has another HIT! The game mechanics are simple, yet detailed enough to allow the characters to do anything they want.

Ahhhh... More nostalgia! I originally bought Behind Enemy Lines (BEL) back in the early '80s when it was owned by FASA. Very realistic. (Your character can be killed with a single shot!)
Mitigating factors include using camoflage, cover & concealment, noise & light discipline, terrain, etc... In other words, if you bumble about in the woods in the middle of the night shining flashlights around, cracking jokes and laughing, don't act surprised when you character gets his butt shot off!
The rules are easy to learn and has some very complete encounter tables. Maps and several adventures are included in the .pdf.
LIKED: Re-owning a very good RPG!
Original maps & adventures from the original boxed set!
DISLIKED: There are a few editing mistakes, but it does not detract from understanding the rules.
Also, using today's standard, the new Cover Art could be much better.
QUALITY: Very Good
VALUE: Very Satisfied

SKG has some spectacular art; very clean and easy on the eye. I really like their artstyle!
This is a HUGE ship! If you build it using the SKG eFuture tiles for miniatures, it will take up alot of space. It would come in very handy if used for a 'bughunter'or 'Aliens' scenario.

Finding the Star Ace Game brought back many fond memories! The Classic Box Set has everything you need to start playing EXCEPT for the maps!!!
Unfortuneately, if you are going to play 'Canon' Star Ace, you MUST have the maps. Otherwise, you will have to come up with maps that you make.
I contacted Ronin Arts about obtaining the maps in any format, but never got any response. As far as I am concerned, I will continue to purchase Star Ace products as they are released due to nostalgia, but I will not purchase any other item from Ronin Arts. Failure to respond to a customer is a BIG NO in my book.
LIKED: The Nostalgia.
DISLIKED: NO MAPS! and NO response from Ronin Arts.
QUALITY: Acceptable
VALUE: Disappointed
