The "freeze" button is a brilliant solution that allows you to pause the action for a limited time, to give orders to the other members of your squad. The gameplay is made of two different modes: the first-person view, where you control your Space Marine, and the squad view, where you can issue orders to the team, from a top-down perspective. In fact, Space Hulk is a real-time game, not a turn-based one, as you might have expected from a board game adaptation. The American studio didn't try to port all the rules, but rather create a game with the same atmosphere, but maybe different gameplay - something that could use the new hardware capabilities of the computers of the '90s. But in the case of Space Hulk, the development was granted to Electronic Arts. Gremlin Graphics developed the two previous adaptations of Games Workshop's games: HeroQuest and Space Crusade.
In this horror/sci-fi title, with some elements of RPGs and dungeon crawling, you control a team of genetically enhanced Space Marines whose goal is to destroy an evil alien race called the Genestealers.
Space Hulk is a squad-management tactical videogame, released in 1993 for MS-DOS and Amiga, based on the popular board game by Games Workshop with the same title.
