March 2025
Tutorial: Look, we have a tough planet ahead where the enemy has an Ion Cannon superweapon which one-shots our ships. We should make 5 transport ships and make evasive maneuvers and skip to the next planet and take that one instead, because that planet is easier. After that, we will similarly island-hop into the enemy capital to finish things off. Me: Detonates a nuke in the Ion Cannon planet so that no defense turrets can stand in the way of my bigger nuke, which I send through the ashes and detonate in the next planet, which the tutorial told me to take btw, and that bigger nuke destroys all planets 1 jump around this planet, laying the path to the enemy Capital bare for me.

Most of my time with this game have been offline. This is a GREAT and vast strategy game with lots of replayability. Be aware, there is a unique game mechanic where the more aggressive you are the AI threat raises and will become extremely hostile. The best way to overcome this is to scout and decide carefully which planets and tech you need to capture and hold. There are lots of options in the settings to alter the game mechanics and many different possible play styles and strategies to win. There are some nice people on youtube with guides or play throughs that can give you some help if you get stuck. Worth whatever the asking price is and certainly when on sale. Nice work Arcen Games LLC, two thumbs up!

Very nostalgic and the papers about how the AI worked almost lead me down a career in tech. Also the music is a bop

The most comprehensive, intergalactic strategy game on the market. Endless hours of challenging yet rewarding fun. Save humankind from an evil, out-of-control AI computer built by the humans, and retake the galaxy by wiping out AI orbital bases with your fleets. The AI can have up to 2 of many behaviour options that you choose to create unique enemy elements and mix and match AI teams with diverse chemistry combos and enable unique gameplay for each match. Behaviours affect things like how and when an AI will attack, how smart or advanced it's tech is, or how defensive it is. All DLCs are fantastic and provide their own spins and twists. Multiple factions, ability to hack AI for blueprints or sabotage, massive framerate-killing battles, and the glory of sending nuclear warheads into random systems... because why not. Custom match settings allow even more gameplay depth. For it's age and price, easily the best Sci-Fi strategy game.

This game truly feels like you are an underdog fighting an impossible battle. It manages to be one of the most emotional RTS games I've ever played, despite not really having much of a story at all. You feel the hope, desperation, and dread of your people, which makes victory infinitely satisfying. If you're someone who enjoys playing RTS games against AI opponents, especially if you prefer "turtling" in those games, then you will probably enjoy AI War.
