Stars in Shadow
Beschreibung
Stars in Shadow is a turn-based 4X science fiction strategy game. Explore the stars, settle distant worlds, and build an interstellar empire. Recover ancient technologies and negotiate with alien leaders. Created by a pair of passionate strategy gamers, Stars in Shadow features streamlined empire management, sophisticated turn-based tactical combat, and detailed world building.
“A worthy tribute to the classic Master of Orion games of times past.”84 – CyberPower PC

“An indie game truly for the 4Xer to revel in.”

- Epic Scope:
Starting at the dawn of interstellar travel, progress through four eras of technological advancement. Discover the science of planetary terraforming, upgrade your infantry battalions to battle mechs, and grow your fleet from a squadron of destroyers to an armada of planet-destroying Dread Stars. - Varied Factions:
7 Playable factions comprising six alien races. Each faction has different research strengths and technology options. Forming alliances, conquering neighboring species, or discovering ancient artifacts may open up additional avenues of research. Choose your race wisely as it impacts which worlds will suit you, what trades or alliances may be offered, and whether or not your neighbors are inclined to trust you. - Stylized Setting:
A distinctive comic-book art style and an original, detailed universe backstory draw you into an immersive game world. Interact with a unique cast of alien characters, make friends and influence people, or crush your enemies and see them driven before you. - Focused High-Level Strategy:
Build a vast and varied empire, taking advantage of the unique traits offered by different alien populations and the worlds they inhabit. Experiments on a slave population might diminish your popularity in the Galactic Council. A streamlined resource and planetary improvement model keeps the game moving even when your empire grows large. - Deep Turn-Based Tactical Combat:
Face off against your opponents in complex 2D turn-based tactical battles. Counter your enemy’s missile barrage using point defense or interceptors, then close to energy weapon range! Stars in Shadow’s tactical engine includes several features rarely seen in turn based games. Multi-ship commands keep even large fleet battles fast-paced, and smart unit behaviors allow tight control with minimal micromanagement. Auto-resolve battles that are a foregone conclusion, while retaining the ability to replay any engagement to see exactly what happened.

Attack of the Fanboy
3.5/5 stars
A great introduction to the 4x genre, Stars in Shadow succeeds at everything it aims for. The art style is amazing, the gameplay is fun and factions are interesting, held back by only a few lacking systems.

7/10
Stars in Shadow, developed by a two man team, offers a compelling but simple approach to the 4X Strategy game genre. While lacking some depth in the grand scale, it more than makes up for it with compelling ship battles, using custom designed ships that offer a great amount of customization.

7/10
Stars in Shadow is a surprisingly competent throwback to classic 4X games, but shines brightest when toying with new ideas.

It does right what it does right
I really admire the work that has been done here already. Gameplay is solid and races play really different. Also, the indie devs are still working on new content and they plan future DLCs so it is worth to support them (it is a rare case in which I considered also buying the game on Steam just to help the devs). I rate this game 4.5 stars. Once the devs add race customization it will be a solid 5 for me (and, as GOG doesn't allow one to change ratings, I'm already giving it 5 stars because I really trust the devs won't disappoint).

good, not great
art, music and lore are good (I love the music). gameplay and tactical depth are pretty shallow. good for kids, hardcore strategy fans could probably skip.

Easy means easy fellas...
NOT 10,000 turn game to lose to ONE opponent. I wish these devs would; A. Develop a reasonable tutorial for their games. B. Make an easy mode that actually MEANS easy... I mean, what the flock do THEY care if I beat it 100 times on "easy mode"? Very disappointed.
