The escape route leads through the Rexxon Empire’s territory, which results in war. The player controls the fleet’s only hope, one of three experimental Epic class fighters. In the final mission, the fighter is also used to deploy a cobalt bomb. 6627

Epic game description 2h22v
The sun is about to go supernova and humanity must find a new home. All the population is packed into a huge fleet of ships and they set off for a suitable planet. Unfortunately the route goes straight through the territory of a hostile alien race, the Rexxons.
Epic is an action-based space flight simulator game. It features eight completely different levels (including two in two phases), which take place either in space or over the surface of a planet. Each has a tight time limit to complete the mission (destroying the assigned targets), with failure being not an option.
The main emphasis on the game is the graphics which were excellent when the game was released but this meant that the game was very short with just 7 levels. There are loads of cutscenes all with music from Holst’s planet suite.
