How it feels
A methodical, turn-based strategy game where you carefully expand your empire and manage resources before engaging in competitive military conquest.

What players say
Players love the old-school turn-based strategy and colony management with unique alien races, but the port is nearly unplayable on Windows 10 and Linux without a third-party fix. Reviews are split on whether it holds up, with some preferring the original game and others finding it still addictive despite its age.
