  This is a space version of Settlers of Catan, with some slightly different game mechanics. Overall, for a game I bought for under $5 I have got my money's worth.

  I'll only give it a recommend if they fix the game taking over your ships and sending them wherever it feels like it. I'm not talking about the AI. I'm talking about the game suddenly controlling your entire fleet, one after the other, while it's your turn and sending them piled up into a space flux (or whatever that pink barrier is called) or right on past a planet you intended to land on, until all your movement points are used up. You will lose every time when this happens.

  Have you played Master of Orion? Settlers of Catan? Some modern boardgames? You're ready to play this. I wish the graphics were a little more clean and "icon based" rather than trying to portray a boardgame quite so faithfully, and I haven't played enough to be able to say how well or badly the design is balanced. But if you like digital boardgames generally, chances are pretty high you'll like this one, too.

  A very well made board-like strategy game. Pick your favorite spacey soundtrack, grab a cup of tea and sit back and enjoy trying to figure out how to meet the victory condition before the AI opponents do. If the game looks too slow for you don't worry: you can reduce the timer on all messages so they go by faster, or press "X" to instantly close a pop-up message, which really speed things up.

  Great game if you are a fan of Catan, but on a much more complex scale. The Dev is great, had a couple of bugs that were fixed within hours. Can't beat the price, give it a shot.

  If you like building-focused board games, you will likely love this one. The style of the graphics somewhat remind me of Sci-Fi theme around the 80's~90's. Gave me nostalgia, in a way. There is no combat, which makes the game feel peaceful. You have rivals out there, but no actual enemies. This game is a nice way to relax for 2~3 hours, which seems to be the average time to complete an standard 30 victory points game.

  Alright I had some misgiving about this game, but after the 2nd round I was hooked. Ignore the graphics and sound, yes they may be bad and outdated but they're functional. Don't watch Youtube videos on this product, you will need to play it yourself to both understand and get the feel of it. Persist through the tutorial, and then force yourself to try a game afterwards, the pieces will slowly fall into place and soon you'll be able to see the strategy elements in the game. To add icing on the cake there is a sort of points system whereby the more games you play/win, you'll be able to unlock buffs to help you and this certainly adds to the gameplay. Tip: Speed up the opponent timers by lowering all of them to 2 seconds to save your sanity and turn the sound and music off. Good for revisits for short games once in a while to get your TBG hook eased (believe me the itch will be there). On sale if it's $2-3 etc it's a steal (even without the buffs system)

  Unplayable mess, the interface out of whack, even saving the audio options doesn't work.
