PC Gamer gave Renegade II 71%. Thirty years later, a single playable mission survives, and a preservation researcher is trying to find out what happened to the rest.

So PC Gamer gave Renegade II: Return to Jacob’s Star a rating of 71%, and …then the game never came out.

I wrote about the tiniest article about this cancelled DOS space sim, the one mission you can still play in your browser, and the search for a more complete copy. I keep wondering what happened to the build the magazine reviewed. If anyone remembers seeing a preview or playing a demo back then, I’d love to hear about it! As would so many others.

There’s dozens of us!
