YOUR GALAXY NEEDS YOU

by Hazed

The best things in life are free, they say, and that includes your favorite game - Fed2. But although we offer it to you free to play, it's not free from our point of view, because we have bills to pay that cover the hosting of the game, the network connections, and so on. That's why we urge you to buy slithy toves, those tokens that you can exchange in the game for a wide range of goods and services, and that in real life we sell you for dollars which we use to pay the bills.

Although you don't have to buy slithy toves in order to play the game, and you can go from Groundhog up to the highest level without ever paying us any money, we rely on some of you buying slithies, whether it's because you want to get a navcomp upgrade, a remote price check or a warehouse permit, or because you just want to help Fed2 keep going.

Slithy toves cost $5 each when you make a one-off purchase (you can buy between 2 and 10 in one go). You can also set up a subscription to pay us every month and get 4 for the price of 3 - the sub is 8 UK pounds, which at the current exchange rate is about $15.80. Whichever method you choose, you do them both here.

Please, buy some slithies today and ensure we can pay our next bill!
