A Long Way Home claims that space travel is not an easy task, which humanity began to engage in in the virtual Universe since the 20th century, but encountered many obstacles on the way to the goal. A ship sent in an adventure on a 360-five-day mission, on the 200th day encounters an engine breakdown. The crew is at a distance of hundreds of light years from the planet, where the hero can overcome one year at a time.In the near future, humanity is trying to master new technologies, as well as interplanetary travel. The pioneers, recruited from random volunteers holding various positions - these are the military, the owners of the corporation and ordinary people who are sent to test the newly created hyperdrive, developed for the purpose of traveling long distances. Another jump disables the spaceship, and the hero on board was supposed to appear in Alpha Centauri, but is transferred 100 light years from Earth and the Solar System. The starship's equipment is damaged, but a new engine can be rivet from the surviving parts, with the help of which the team does not lose hope of returning home.In total, 4 crew members out of a dozen possible are offered to choose from. There are 3 types of spaceships and shuttles for landings. Each has a different design and parameters, for example, maneuverability characteristics. It is difficult to complete the task, because in order to get even to the Solar System, you need to go through a couple of Galaxies, obtaining fuel for the hyperdrive. You can refuel by landing on a shuttle, extracting a resource or flying to the star itself on a starship. As the game progresses, the character searches for fuel, refuels, jumps to the next Galaxy, and also searches for other items to heal the team and fix breakdowns. There are a lot of random events, including encounters with aliens. The gameplay is based on flights between planets on a ship, as well as a trip around the territory itself in a landing shuttle, where for landing you need to combine your own and the orbit of a celestial body. You can get the necessary material by drilling the surface or explore the area in search of a greater variety of useful resources. There are also meetings with representatives of extraterrestrial races, a battle in space and trade. In total, you have to go through 10 galaxies, gradually shortening the Long Way Home.
