Not a particularly easy game initially, but once you get the hang of it, it becomes hugely enjoyable especially if you are a fan of the i.P. I had previously played the demo so knew what to expect, basically you are in command of a gunstar, which is a much smaller ship than a Battlestar like Galactica, you have a few civilian ships with you and your aim is to balance needs, factions, heroes, health, R&D, crises, vessel repairs, gunstar weapons, and asquadron of fighters or similar craft (you have 2 initially but can later have upto four) as you progress in search of joining the Galactica after the cylons attack the 12 colonies and almost wipe out humanity. At each step you have a limited number of time units you can spend to explore POI's deal with events and crises, generate resources or improve civilian support ships, which can provide a variety of bonuses or resources each jump. It is to be frank quite the juggling act initially, but gets somewhat easier as your vessels are upgrades and improvements researched, civilian ships levelled up, your heroes levelled up and so forth. But the enemies also get progressively tougher and more various as you travel too. the key to doing well in this game is to put aside the mindset of "winning", truth is you already lost, humanity lost, the aim is to survive, you cannot beat the cylons all you can do is buy enough time fending them off so your gunstar and its civilian ships to escape to the next jump. And if you play with that in mind you will make better tactical decisions on your exodus to safety. I won't spoil the ending although the game keeps fairly loyal to the i.p in theme so it shouldn't be too hard to figure out, but I only mention it is the game is set up to put a value on your success or failure in a playthrough in order to provide bonuses to future playthroughs with that save. So the game does have some replayability to it and that along with a compendium of abilities, ships, items, abilities and so forth is also there for the completionist's who want to unlock and see everything the game has too. One complete playthrough for me took a little over four hours so its relatively short but a lot of fun.

A really nice roguelike FTL concept that improves on Crying Suns quite a bit. It has some decent strategy, the space combat is great, characters that you build up over a run (similar to Xcom), and the base management is a nice break from the action. There's a metagame where you unlock future improvements, and you can unlock different fleets and upgrades as you play. It's exactly like the demo, so give it a shot.

Every time I hear the Dradis contact sound I immediately hear Mr. Gaeta's voice in my head alerting me to the cylons. A very fun game that takes aspects of FTL, and applies them to the BSG (remake) universe, while also addinging a tactical part to the battle at the end of each sector before you jump. Can feel quite challenging at times to protect the fleet during those fights, but that is just part of the overwhelming threat that is the Cylons. It is truly a fight to survive and they capture that very well in this game. Definitely recommend this game to fans of the BSG remake.

My now wife and I watched the entirety of BSG in our early dating life together. I have all the minisodes and series ripped to my media drives and often rewatch it while grinding MMOs. I love BSG:Deadlock on steam, but it takes a lot more focus and time than a burnt out dad often has to throw at a game; one battle in that game can take 40+min, where here i beat several battles and did the inbetween upgrading and promotions in the same time. (completed the tutorial) As such, i was BEYOND stoked when i saw a *roguelike* rts Battlestar game coming... doubled down on that excitement when I saw it was the devs behind Crying Suns.! Needless to say, i had this game bought and installed about 3minutes after 9am MST, when it dropped. I've only beat the tutorial, but she's a frakking beauty so far; The pixel graphic detailing on the 3D modeled ships and ship consoles is a really cool artstyle decision,.. gives it a retro vibe while remaining fresh AND all in that delicious BSG flavor. So far very impressed.. the opening cutscene sampling the show's choir opening perfectly set the stage for something i'm sure will eat many hours of my life. It's also something that *demands* less from me at a time and is easier to step away and come back to, than other BSG titles. Might be my new fav BSG game.. SO SAY WE ALL

My first impression of this game has been very positive. As a fan of both BSG and roguelite strategy games like FTL and Crying Suns, I feel like I'm getting exactly what I wanted out of this game even after only a couple hours. The game is difficult, punishing, and always makes you feel like you're on the back foot, which is exactly how a Battlestar Galactica game should be. The game mechanics are not too complex, and the tutorial does a great job explaining things without dumping everything on you all at once. The combat is a mix of tower defense and RTS with a focus on using the right units and abilities to counter specific enemy units/abilities. It feels a bit simplistic at first, but once multitudes of Cylon raiders are pouring out of the Basestar towards my fleet, I'm kinda glad to not have to do too much micromanagement. This game is absolutely worth giving a try, especially since it has a demo.
