It is a good 4x game. Pro: -tactical space battles -good tech tree -worth use many fleet, not just one superstrong -own setup ships Cons: -the UI is not intuitive, I played many battles, but still missclick -in larger maps the micromanagement is too much -not enough details in ship components
From a '20 years perspective, this is not a good, but if you like the retro feeling, it is a good choice. I love that the automap is only active if your character has mapmaking skill. The better the skill, the more accurate is the map. Unfortunately the combat is very simple. The magic system not smooth. I did not finish it yet, but I enjoy playing with it.
