19. Rebel Galaxy

Like Guardians of the Galaxy meets Firefly with Assassin's Creed: Black Flag's naval combat, Rebel Galaxy is a Southern twang-soundtrack'd blast across the cosmos.

Given a ship handed down from a relative, you're given the freedom to dart off and do whatever you like. Bounty hunting, trade route-pillaging, dogfighting - and that's all within the first few moments. There is a story and a ton of side missions to pursue, but if you want to spend time making a name for yourself - or upgrading your mining laser for a random haul - feel free.

The whole game is backed by a phenomenally fun soundtrack that modulates depending on whatever's happening on screen. Take it from me: Having an interstellar battle break out between 10+ ships all firing different coloured lasers as some Southern rock guitar solo blares away underneath is pure. heaven.
