I bought this game a few days ago and have been enjoying it. It's a pretty simple 4x game that doesn't get you bogged down in a lot of "empire management" so you can concentrate on strategy - simple though it may be. Graphics are obviously nothing to brag about but the game play is fast, smooth and can be challenging. The only reason I didn't give the game 4 or more stars is because there is no option to save it mid-game. Granted, you can play through a game in a single sitting but if you DO have to shut it down for some reason you will lose all your progress and have to start over next time. Not too big a deal but still annoying. I still recommend the game. It's only $1.50 on sale and well worth it. Just leave yourself a little time to finish what you start. Or, of course, just leave it running in the background 'till you can get back to it.
