==Plot== The plot of ''Far Gate'' takes place in the year 2104 AD where Earth has been left an apocalyptic ruin following a devastating [[World War III]]. The player takes the role of Jacob Viscero, a "Han Solo-esque" black marketeer, who is blackmailed into assisting with the human colonization of the [[Proxima Centauri]] star system.<ref name="Gamespy review">{{cite web |url=http://archive.gamespy.com/reviews/march01/fargate/ |title=GameSpy.com - Reviews: Far Gate |author=Doug "Stratos" Farmer |work=[[GameSpy]] |publisher=[[GameSpy Industries]] |accessdate=October 26, 2009}}</ref> The colonization process is complicated by untrustworthy allies, and by attacks from the Nue-Guyen, a squid-like alien race native to the vacuum of space who are able to travel from system to system via means of [[wormholes]]. Battles against the Nue-Guyen take place across a range of planetary systems, until it is revealed that the Nue-Guyen had mistaken the player's faction for the crystalline Entrodii race. The player now allies with the Nue-Guyen to fight the Entrodii, culminating in an attack on an Entrodii fortress at [[Cygnus X-1]]. An epilogue reveals the Nue-Guyen assisting in the colonization of Proxima Centauri.<ref name="Gamespot review">{{cite web |url=http://au.gamespot.com/pc/strategy/fargate/review.html |title=Far Gate Review for PC |author=Brett Todd |date=September 13, 2001 |work=[[Gamespot]] |publisher=[[CNet]] |accessdate=October 23, 2009}}</ref>
