Goofy sci-fi adventure game from FOG, better(?) known for the Missing Parts and Fūraiki series. This one puts you in the shoes of a newbie pilot for a disrespected and perpetually-broke galactic shipping company. It's sort of like Futurama in the style of Slayers.

Essentially a bog-standard Japanese-style adventure game. Certain sequences take the timed-decision mechanics of Sakura Taisen or D→A to their logical conclusion -- when shit gets real, you not only have to make choices quickly, but you also can't save or load until you either make it through unscathed or wind up losing the job (or worse).

Each copy included a set of 3 randomly-picked character trading cards. The ones I got are pictured below, though I have no idea how many different ones there were total.
