What players say

Players say Duke of Alpha Centauri is a recycled sidescrolling shooter built from premade templates, with monotonous waves and a broken UI. It is overpriced but always on a deep sale. Some enjoy the simple arcade loop, but most find it boring and easy to beat by letting the auto-aim play.
