Stellar 7: Draxon’s Revenge

Stellar 7: Draxon's Revenge - 3DO (1993)

This entry is part 6 of 6 in the series Stellar 7

Draxon’s Revenge is yet another remake of the original Stellar 7, although with vastly improved graphics designed to show off the 3DO. All of the polygon models are textured and look much better than any other version, although they still look primitive by today’s standards. The gameplay is much smoother too, even though it has a tendency to slow down pretty often. While it’s an excellent rendition of Stellar 7, it’s also brutally difficult – with no extra lives and no continues, the only viable way to see the ending is through a cheat code.

Of note, however, is that this game features a few CG cinemas and CD audio of surprising quality. Michael Dorn (Star Trek: TNG‘s Lieutenant Worf) provides narration, and the music is composed by Chris Stevens, who wrote the music for a few other key Dynamix games (including Rise of the Dragon), though he originally had no part in the earlier Stellar 7 games.
