I try playing other games but this is still my favorite game as it reminds of the masters of Orion game for the computer. Can’t go wrong with a classic.

More features than the last few desktop 4x games I have played! I especially like the battles. The standing orders are perfect for the genre. My only regret was waiting this long to get the app. Couple of things I do wish were in the game: 1. Ship leveling, or veteran levels. Or, if that’s too game breaking, a way to see how many battles a given ship has participated in. 2. More portrait options in the custom race creator - possibly just the commander portraits? 3. Really, that’s about it. Game is great.

Had this game since it came out.... never regretted buying it. If your bored make your own species and experiment. Thank you for creating this game.

I love this game. Staying up too late playing it is my only problem hahaha. It's engrossing, and thankfully they're able to create a game with a lot of depth making you micromanage. The music's great - nice use of strings. Playing it over and over through the "4X" stages is engrossing. They've really polished this over the years.

This is an excellent turn based strategy game in the mold of Masters of Orion and Galactic Civilizations PC games. It needs some more user customization options but other than that, it is well worth the money.

...they put MOO2 on my phone! I don’t know whether to be thrilled or mortified... “Just one more turn... Just one more... Can’t go to bed just yet...” Thanks guys! This is really a blast from the past; although some details have changed, you’ve very well preserved the flavor of the game. Well worth the price tag, and I’ll look forward to some sleepless nights!

I am a HUGE fan of Maters of Orion 2. I have played hundreds of games. This game is even better.

This is the best, by far, of the sci fi strategy games. I do wish it was harder at the higher levels, with at least one Civ that is hostile in the multi Civ games. I like to build an empire, then fight it out with an AI empire.

First thanks for making a 4x game! Audio and planet background art is good. The blue wire frame structures you build on those planets is uninspiring. Also farm lvl I farm II farm III is boring. laser I II III is boring. It makes the effort of working on extra worlds and tech more of a dull grind than an accomplishment. No unique names or descriptions. The space battles are frustrating and boring. You either zoom too far out and see triangle icons with no feedback or can try and chase down and zoom in on 1 ship to see how it’s doing. I’d say either do a sins of a solar empire rts fight or a MOO coordinate turn base. The hybrid isn’t working in this case. Some kind of cool animation after colonizing a world or discovering something, a new tech..anything
