So this is a great game. Made by nice people with a passion and it shows. It's the real vibe of the SG1 base. Including personal relationships, adventures you lead through the intercom... Pros: - really cool art style - x-com style world recruitment - a lot of work was put in, including people talking in languages of the countries they're actually from - really fun decision making when you are pressured by multiple factors. Should you pursue science at all costs, fortune, fame and glory... Or care for your people. - the economy is actually very in-depth and you run a for-profit company, gott keep that in mind or you WILL pay xD - High configurability of your gameplay scenarios - Really fun galaxy map, resource mangement and progression - one of those that does have hints based tutorials, but doesn't hold you by the hand all the way. You can fail. You can die. Quite easily even on not easy difficulties, though bancruptcy rather than death is the biggest risk there. Cons: - some QoL features would be very useful, like it would be useful to ban your teams or people from types of activities instead of just forcing one - minor rare bugs that are just visual glitches or are fixable by reloading. Like diagnosis pods don't close for a while when you pause the game when they're opening or closing, or once drones just didn't want to dig in a certain area - totally fixed by saving and reloading. Overall 9/10, will be 10/10 of what's expected if the devs polish it just a little bit. Love what they did and if you loved SG1 or just Tycoons with management and economy you'll love it too.
If you enjoy Evil Genius style base builders and/or like Stargate, Exogate is worth a look. I tried the demo on a NextFest years ago and it was not great, but trying the game now that it's launched on sale was a very pleasant surprise. The core gameplay loop is solid, the UI is functional (a bit lacking, but servicable), and the theming is great (it's like Stargate, but clearly its own unique thing, not just aping something else). Definitely 100% recommend on sale, probably even at full price.
This is one of those games where a 'Meh' rating would come in handy. It's enjoyable but flawed in many ways. I really enjoyed it for about the first half of my playthrough, then the second half felt very tedious and repetitive. While the new systems are being introduced and you are growing and skilling up your roster of teams, the gameplay loop is fun and compelling, but by the time the game is halfway through, everything is maxed out and it just becomes a repetitive slog to the finish line. Some notable Pros and Cons: Pros: - The diplomacy missions have some fun bite size storylines - It's simple to pickup and learn - The core gameplay loop is engaging (at least to start with) - It has a 'Just one more turn' factor Cons: - It's extremely easy, there is almost no challenge - The base defence mechanic is half baked and pointless - The late game is very tedious It's a fun game for a while but the last fifteen hours or so was solely for the sake of completion. Meh.
[url=https://steamcommunity.com/id/proeskalampar/recommended/1681060/)]This well-formed review pretty much sums up how I'm feeling, though I haven't made it to the grind yet. I was pleasantly surprised that the game did turn out as I had hoped from [url=https://steamcommunity.com/app/1681060/reviews/?browsefilter=toprated&snr=1_5_100010_]this review . Xeno Bits is punching a bit above their weight here, as the evidenced by the shortcomings repeated in reviews. But they're doing something interesting with it. A "7/10 Evil Genius but Stargate" works really well and is worth the buy, in my opinion. I do wish it'd be better, and giving Xeno Bits some success helps us get there.
Overall, the game is good and feels very similar to Evil Genius, but set in space. I can definitely recommend it, however I want to highlight several downsides. They are not critical, but without them the game would feel much more comfortable. My playthrough took around 20 hours, and during the last 5–6 hours I was mostly just fast-forwarding time, waiting for the game to finally end. In my opinion, the game has about 10–12 hours of actual content, after which it starts artificially stretching the gameplay. The first 10 hours were genuinely engaging: I explored sectors, learned the diplomacy and alien research mechanics, completed events, and collected artifacts. Once it became clear how to efficiently farm influence, the race with other factions stopped being challenging — I defeated one faction militarily and beat the other one by score. Main drawbacks: 1) Uncomfortable team and staff management. The game technically shows which team belongs where and whether a team is busy, but the UI is very inconvenient. Filters do not really help. There is no indicator for idle teams — only active or mission-preparing ones are shown. 2) Severe lack of storage space for ore. Each storage box can hold only one type of ore, and the same ore does not stack in the same container — you always need a new box. As a result, you end up with dozens of containers holding 0.5 kg of ore, while 13 kg of the exact same ore has nowhere to go. 3) Pathfinding issues during building. Quite often, when placing objects inside rooms, everything looks correctly positioned and visually unblocked, yet one item still blocks the passage. You only realize this later, when you notice that no one goes to that part of the room — because they physically cannot reach it. Overall, 7/10. A solid game with a strong early phase, but the late game lacks meaningful activities, forcing you to wait on fast-forward until it finally ends.
