Wow! I'm on my 2nd game now. The game starts extremely slow! I think it's at least 50 or maybe even 100 moves before I can build a decent ship. And there's a space dragon on the next system, and it just sent one of its offspring to one of my systems, so now I have a planet that is being blockaded by this baby dragon. My frigates have HP of 12 while the baby dragon has HP of 60, for comparison. On earth I'm building a battleship which will take another 30 turns, and the real question is whether my battleship can destroy this baby dragon. Okay.. so the game is obviously pretty hard. I haven't even encountered any AI civs yet too! Why do I like the game and why am I writing a review? First: I'm playing with all DLCs installed - which I recommend. Biggest pro: The game doesn't show it very clearly on the map, but it's there. Every star system can be visited or surveyed or explored with telescopes remotely - but what you find might not be the whole picture, and there are layers to the onion that can be peeled back to find the hidden treasures or hidden dangers there. I think this makes the game very compelling, because every star system is like a metroidvania where you can't just visit it and know what's there - you have to come back with better experts to see more detail. There's no way to see everything in the galaxy because of this feature, because you have to pick where to send your probes and there are a finite number of them. So even playing the same map twice can result in different outcomes depending on where you send your survey ships, etc. Other things to like: - Space battles are tactical on a grid - this is my favorite feature of the game, and maybe why I will always prefer it to other space 4x. - The technology tree is interesting, but I wish I could find technologies to make people happier - There are leaders, and some of them, when they level up, can learn skills that make people happier - The cities screen is really nice showing animated buildings that have been built - There are many "layers" this game slowly unfolds - new dialogs show up "you've unlocked this other thing you had never heard of" Things I don't like: - Why can't I build this building? What do you mean there aren't enough slots? The UI is very confusing in places. - Oh I can allocate to terraforming but it doesn't do anything? Well why do you let me do that then? You want to punish me for not reading the manual? The game is better than I expected, but still very much clunky, like a high school student's project. Still the features that I haven't seen in other games makes it worth my time to play, even just to see if I can beat that space dragon! And yes - I just beat it. Now to go after pappa!

It's a simple yet interesting 4X space game, quite like Pollaris sector, but with several isues fixed. You explore the galaxy, colonize planets, improve them, research, build spaceships and, eventually, fight other empires if you want, thought there're other ways to win. A whole game last only a few hours, so you can improve your tactics without spending too much time on it.

I'm in love! I have looked for over 20 years to find a game that catches the spirit of master of Orion 2. After hearing about this games a few times on reddit I finally bought it and was instantly hooked. If you want a game that feels and plays like a modern version of master of Orion 2 then this is it. There is no higher praise for a 4X game that I can think of.

A worthy succesor to MOOII. One more turn can easily turn into two nours later. I have yet to master all the mechanics of the game but I look forward to the process. I can foresee many hours spent among the stars looking for dark matter!!

This is a fun MOO2 clone. My only big complaint is the colonization and relocation restrictions on the "other" (non player) species. Even taking terraforming into consideration, not being able to freely leverage conquered or liberated species as a strategy feels like a large hole and a missed opportunity in the design of the game, especially since the developer went to the trouble to create various planet biomes to start with.
