What players say
Players describe After the Empire as an automated 4X game that boils down to choosing war targets while the computer handles the rest. Many warn the tutorial is weak and the tiny font unreadable at high resolutions, a bug the developer has left unfixed. Those who push through find a clever, hard-to-master strategy game that shines in its weekly competitions.
