A modern Masters of Orion. Somewhat streamlined, not quite so many options as MoO II and the variations are bit uncreative. The requirements are not so obvious either, be it in the tech-trees or buildings. The social implications of the numbers could have been explained better in the tutorial (at least there).

It seems to have a challenging diplomatic system, that works.

I'm bit uncertain about combat tactics, as I mostly use Auto for combat and doesn't see a thing, but the rest of the game seems quite smooth this far :)
