April 2025
I've waited way too long to review this. Some of the best 500+ hours of my 4X gaming in the past thirty years. If you're looking for that elusive proper Moo2 successor, you've found it. Master of Orion (2016) is soulless, over-produced tripe. Stellaris is real time, DLC-bloated garbage, on an antiquated engine with pure vomit for a UI. Endless Space was fantastic until the devs ruined it by not knowing when to stop with the feature-creep. GalCiv 2 was great, GalCiv 3 was a step back, and GalCiv 4 feels like a hollowed husk. Star Drive is... well it exists. Stars in Shadow was pretty damn good, and honestly was my favorite for a long while. But Interstellar Space Genesis? It's simply divine! Truly a king worthy of the Moo2 crown.

OK I am one of these old farts that have been playing computer games since PCs came out. Master of Orion and MOO 2 were great back in the day, but games have evolved and there are lots of 4X games out there. We still need that beer and pretzel 4X space game. Some are overly complicated like Stellaris and some overly simplified like the new version of MOO. I just re-tried Interstellar Space Genesis (lame title) looking to scratch that 4X itch, and I think it is a worthy successor to MOO. You can feel it in the design choices, but it feels evolved from the original, like what MOO 3 should have been. I like the UI, once you get used to it it presents a lot of useful info at a glance. Ship design is simple. There is even a manual! How old school. For the price point, you could do a lot worse. A modern game based on and continuing an old classic. Get it, it's good.

87 hours so far and loving the game! I'm a 59 yo veteran of 4X games. This game strikes a nice balance between complexity and playability; lots of details and options but without requiring excessive micro-management. It's a nice evolution of the MOO series with a better interface and smoother game flow.

A very impressive game. Inspired by “Master of Orion 2”, but this version is superior in my opinion. The graphics are beautiful, the soundtrack sublime. Too bad the game isn't available to those who don't understand English. There's a lot of work here. The details, the user interface, the ease of access to information with a simple mouse-over... No bugs, solid. A little gem. ... The difficulty of the game can be precisely adjusted. For example, 100% for all players, whether in production or research. And after a few games, while consulting the screen displaying the strengths and weaknesses of each empire, you can change these values from 50% to 200%. In other words, you can truly create “equal” opponents, then increase these values as you become stronger and stronger. Aggressiveness, production and research can be adjusted. I can't wait to see what the developers have in store for us next. I highly recommend this game.

The essential parts of this game are lifted directly from Master of Orion 2, but the devs have brought in some new features, more or less a sprinkling of Stellaris-inspired stuff without being as complicated as Stellaris. The interface is familiar to any 4x player. Essential information not only exists on pages where it's logical to have it, but almost always provide very detailed information on mouseover, essentially an entire breakdown of how the number was calculated, what are the stats of that leader, etc. There are searchable locations to scan for, more resources than money, food, production, and research, and generally a good sprinkling of interesting stuff without making the game too bogged down in complexity. Combat is essentially MOO2 with a couple added features like overloading and heat. Overall recommend as an accessible game to play that at least at the time of this writing isn't overwhelming in DLC cost and complexity.
