You are bound to find something to like here.īut I am rushing things. Galactic Civilizations II, Sword of the Stars with Born of Blood expansion and now Sins of a Solar Empire make a hell of a package – and there is more. One of the reasons is that Stardock now has a nice selection of late space strategy games available over at Stardock Central. It is hard to believe that this game is Ironclad Games' first project! That being said, the game is here and Stardock must be happy they chose to publish it.
Also do take into consideration that I am describing version1.04, meaning a patched game. Not a guarantee for a good review, but I’m trying to find an excuse for having played this long without writing a word. Do try to see the good side of the delay after playing countless games one becomes insensitive to hype. You may have noticed that this review has taken a lot of time to be written. Much more eagerly so after the not-so-shiny Master of Orion 3…
The promise of a 4X game, played out in real-time (a so-called RT4X game), with huge battles spanning over several star systems is something space strategy players has been waiting for… since I can remember. I admit my hands might have been slightly trembling while I waited for Sins of a Solar Empire (Sins) to download.
