Just One More Turn!
I enjoyed games like SimCity and Civilization but only when I found Master of Orion did I learn the true meaning of "Just one more turn". If you are a Sci-Fi fan who thinks Civilization is cool, then Master of Orion is going to blow your mind :)

Impressively good!
I decided to start my adventure in the Master of Orion universe with the first game. The graphics are rather outdated and the gameplay is rough, exactly like in the old computer games (no help features, all to be figured out by the player himself :(). Then I moved on to Master of Orion 2. Boy, was I shocked by the technological gap between 1 and 2! The second game gives you exactly what the first game did, but adds better graphics, music (good one to that!), game tips, etc. There's just so much more of everything! And the gameplay... A 'must have' for all you space sim fans out there! :D

Fun But Frustrating
I used to play Master of Orion 2 all the time, but it's perhaps one of those games that I remember more fondly than I should. It does do a lot of things very, very right, with rich diplomacy options, and tons to do. However, it requires micro-management at pretty much every level, which means that playing a competitive empire with a well-maintained fleet is a huge amount of effort, but on the other hand playing a small, focused empire rarely works unless you get just the right (randomly selected) leaders with the bonuses you need. On Average difficulty this is a fun game, and definitely one of the defining turn-based strategy games, but higher difficulties tend to be less challenging and more just an exercise in frustration, and later game empire management can feel more like a tedious job than a game. Fortunately the game pacing is fast, IMO too fast, as your ships are often outdated the turn after they are built, however this means that if you play to win as fast as possible then you can have a blast and waste a lot less of your time on the AI which quite simply cheats to an insane degree (far more than necessary to remain challenging). Unfortunately I never tried MOO 1, and perhaps I should, but graphically it has aged far worse than MOO 2, which has made it very difficult to get into.

Two Masterpieces for one
Best games of the series.... if you're a young player start with part 2. Both games have a bit of a steep learning curve, but are totally worth it.

More addictive than crack
Back in the mid-nineties, when this game was new, I would come home from working a 12 hour shift (6pm to 6am), and STILL log on and play this game for about 4 hours. It was that addictive. Its interface is so simple, and that is what makes it flow so well. You can execute turns very quickly, which keeps sucking you in for that "just one more turn" quality. Definitely one of my top 5 all time games.
