Sword of the Stars II: Lords of Winter Review By Adam Solo on January 30th, 2012 at 2:29 pm Three months after release (more than the producers had announced they needed to put the game in a playable state), I'm writing Sword of the Stars II's review. Category: Game Reviews 22 comments

Distant Worlds: Legends Review By Adam Solo on December 12th, 2011 at 7:59 am If Master of Orion 2 was the 4X space strategy gaming reference of the nineties, then Distant Worlds Legends is the 4X space strategy gaming reference of the early XXI century. Category: Game Reviews 132 comments

Starbase Orion Review By Kyle Rees on November 5th, 2011 at 2:38 pm Starbase Orion has undeniably achieved its goals of providing an experience similar to Master of Orion with better Multiplayer.

Distant Worlds: Return of the Shakturi Review By Adam Solo on October 10th, 2011 at 11:45 am DW RotS made me feel in control of the lives and hopes of my civilization, I cared for them and could feel immersed in a huge galaxy interacting with other alien races. Category: Game Reviews 13 comments

Star Ruler “Gold” Review By Adam Solo on September 28th, 2011 at 5:43 pm I thought this was the perfect timing to do a Star Ruler's (re)review since it seems to have reached a stable version and is now being sold in a box set following the Blind Mind Studios publishing agreement with Iceberg Interactive.

Stellar Impact Review By Adam Solo on September 9th, 2011 at 9:46 pm The somewhat complex skill system of Stellar Impact, the personnel passive skills, the number of ships and its skills should be more than enough to satisfy you and keep you entertained. Category: Game Reviews 8 comments

10 Min Space Strategy Review By Adam Solo on June 18th, 2011 at 6:25 pm In Goblin Lunatics' own words 10 Min Space Strategy is a free "compact, quick turn-based 4x (space) strategy" PC game. Their intention was to make a not so complex space strategy game that still requires the player to decide a great deal of strategy. Category: Game Reviews 22 comments

Sword of the Stars Complete Collection – Review By Zachary Cryer on May 31st, 2011 at 11:13 pm Sword of the Stars is a solid 4X game that I recommend to fans of simpler games, or perhaps newcomers. For people who want more control over their empire, there are better options. SotS is like MoO1, so if you preferred the MoO2 you may want to pass this one by. Category: Game Reviews 13 comments
