DFG Exclusive Review

Pros
  • Play as four distinct races, Human, Hiver, Tarkas, and Liir, each with a fundamentally different transport system which greatly affect their approach to conquering the galaxy
  • Easy to use interface which utilizes slider bars to determine spending on such things as construction, research, terraforming, and infrastructure development
  • A dynamic tech tree randomizes the tech tree with each game and keeps things interesting as you won't know exactly which technologies you'll have on hand
  • Employ new strategies by creating new ships from the technology you research and create well balanced fleets in order to survive
Cons
  • Combat can slow down the pace of the game
  • Have to wait for a certain time to expire before you can flee from combat
  • Diplomacy options are rather limited

Game Description

Take Over the Universe With Your Fleet of Warships!

The universe is your playground and you must take it over by force! Build your empire as one of four unique races, colonize planets, research technologies and battle your enemies. The only goal is to destroy your enemies completely!

Single and Multiplayer Strategy Fun

In this turn-based strategy game, choose to play as the Human, Hiver, Tarkas or Liir races. Each has different benefits, such as the Hiver's unique way to travel between stars. Choose to play custom games with up to 350 stars to explore or play challenging scenarios.

You can perform strategy or combat actions during your turns. Make strategic moves like tweaking building and trading rates for your colonized planets, researching more dangerous weapons and colonizing new planets if they're habitable for your race. A unique aspect of this game is that each time you play, no matter which race you play as, the research trees will be different so you can't rely on favorite options every time you play.

Design and build spaceships and wage war with AI or human players. Customize engines, weapons, cargo space and more for your ships and destroy every enemy to win. This game also features multiplayer mode where the AI will run your empire for you if you want to leave the game and rejoin later.

Endlessly Entertaining

There are endless possibilities in this game because the research tree is always changing, you can customize your own universe to take over and multiplayer mode can go on endlessly. You don't have to micromanage the building and production of each of your planets, so that leaves time to do battle over and over again. Enjoy creating strategies and taking over the universe!

Challenge yourself now with Sword of the Stars and make the universe yours!
