Just bought it myself http://grogheads.com/forums/index.php?topic=7827.45
Nice light space version of Pirates! worth the GOG price and apparently with a new expansion (playable alien race) being released next week.

I'll probably pick it up sometime, now that the pricetag isn't the thirty or forty bucks it used to be. I held off before just because the combat mini-game wasn't all that great but at this price it's no biggie.
Just picked it up. I never played any of the smuggler games back in the day, but it looks like a worthy addition to....well, to my list of games I own but have never played. But hey, you never know!
Wow, I can't believe this series actually has some fans here. I bought Smugglers 3 back in the day and thought it was thoroughly mediocre. Full of flaws, very light on actual gameplay...just an empty experience really. Apparently 4 (which I obviously didn't buy) didn't do much to improve on it. So has 5 been vastly improved or something?

Dunno but version 5 looks almost exactly like v4. ??? You can see that from the screenshots.
