Feels like commanding a swarm of drones in a vast, competitive space race where you balance expansion and combat.

What players say
Players praise Astraeus as a clever planetary conquest strategy game that focuses on mining resources rather than direct combat, and they compare it favorably to Eufloria and Lazerbait. The campaign is short, around two hours, but reviews are split on whether the lack of manual ship control is a flaw.
