Simply put. Amazing.

These two games made the world go around for me, and getting them back now, on gog.com, just makes me thrilled. The strategy is fun, addicting really. The customized races, galaxy sizes, allow near endless replay. Thank-you Gog!

MOO2 - still playing after 20 years

No matter how many MOO2 clones are released, I still come back to MOO2 because it gets MOO2-ness right. I really hope the clones' developers just go and try a completely different approach to 4x strategy, because MOO2 is still the only one to get MOO2-ness right after all of this time.

Just..one more... turn...!!!

MOO2 is the oldest game installed in my hard drive. It has stayed there since the Cretaceous period and will probably stay there till humans become extinct and the world is taken over by a race of intelligent monkeys.. and then they are gonna play it! Yes that's how awesome this game is. It's a simple turn based game where you can lead your space-faring race to galactic glory. Build your colony, research new technology, build and customize your ships, and annihilate your enemies. Of if you want you can even be diplomatic and win the hearts of your 'enemies'. Its good clean fun and you just cant get enough of it.

Captivating

What draws me back everytime is how different each game is. It begins with the infinite combinations of race traits, then the local star systems around you, are you isolated? Short on food? Do you have to trade away your gold to stop the Insectoids breeding out of control and crushing your worthless yet peaceful under-developed civilisation? Do you grow strong from your expert diplomacy, or control though your technology? Will your civilisation survive the sometimes unfair conditions you are faced with or dissapear into the dust of eternity?

Still the best!

Having sat down and replayed an entire afternoon of MOO, I can honestly say that this game has not only survived the test of time but blown it out of the water. Round based? Check. Space? Check. Building a fleet of star ships? Check. Intergalactic diplomacy? Check. Going to war against rivals in an epic battle of solar system supremacy? Absolutely. Just try it once and you'll be hooked - just don't say I didn't warn you about playing straight through the whole weekend. ;)
