Have always thoroughly enjoyed Amplitude's take on the 4X experience, and this is no exception.

Super chilled out and well implemented computer version of a great board game. Nice music, and the game is easy to pick up but hard to master. Definitely going to be spending a lot more time in this game.

Really fun game to play through solo or in co-op multiplayer.
It has cool puzzles and secret areas, plenty of replayability with different character traits and abilities. Also collectibles that are sneakily hidden around each level. Also the voice acting and narration is top quality, with plenty of humor and some subtle (and some not so subtle) popculture references. Always had me chuckling along with the game.

As a fan of D&D, I of course like the theme of this. I've not played an idle game before, and this feels well done. Feels great to come back to a game after a day or so to find you have trillions of gold left to spend.

This is what Re-Masters should be like.

It's not an effective re-release of a game that came out only half a decade ago, with only graphical updates and better modding support *Cough*...Skyrim...*Cough*...Should have been Morrowind or Oblivion...*Cough*...

It's a Re-Master of a game that was first released 17 years ago, that would not work so well if at all on current machines due to compatability issues.

For me, this has brought back the nostalgia of the early 2000's when I first got in to gaming. I have fond memories of going to LAN centres, amassing armadas of Battlecruisers and using their Hyperdrives to warp to and destroy my friend's Pride of Hiigara.

Game works well. Just like I remember it being back in the day. Having the whole 3D space as your battlefield just gives the game a greater sense of scale and epicness to your battles.

10/10

Beautiful and yet simple game, which isn't massively difficult but requires some co-ordination. Really clever narration aswell, which had me chuckling along quite often. Also, sound track is amazing. I picked this up in a Humble Bundle a while ago, and I'm so glad that I finally got round to playing it.
