I played it when I was a child. Galactic Civilizations carried me away to new, alien horizons, where nightsky was so bright, full of stars and hope. A marvellous atmosphere has this game. At the begining an epic intro. The next thing we percept is beatiful soundtrack, that I listen to even today, I cannot imagine better one for such games. It makes me feel really excited. Whoa! Then you start a game. You see black space pointed with white dots and covered somewhere with blue nebulas. Highly elegant minimalistic design. And a handful of techs kept on classic space fiction, with usually good descriptions. Four different races, good looking and climatic. Many moral dilemmas, occasionaly appearing on the screen, where you decide about morality of your race by making choices. And o course space warfare, exploration, upgrading planets. Gameplay is good, but the most important is climate, which is very inspiring here. I have a sentiment to this game.
