Great game. This is much more than a normal game. It's a story generator and the crazy and funny stories that will organically happen to you are what makes it great. I once embarked on a great trek with many colonists in order to find the ship that could bring me off this planet. Through various misfortunes and battles, I lost people, animals and gear, had to flee and build a provisional base in subsequent steps. About 75% of the way there, my last three colonists died, one was sick and I couldn't operate, the second one went mad with grief and stabbed number three, only to die from blood loss after taking on a cougar. 80 hours of a game and all these characters I came to like and root for wiped out. Mixed with melancholy I only thought: "I want to play more, with new people, a new challenge and new stories." My next colonist built his base at a point with an average temperature of -80° Celsius. It was epic. I played a trading company with 5 trading posts simultaniously.

The DLCs and mods give you even more to play with. 10/10

10/10 would artillery beam the enemy ship inside a nebula inside a pirate system inside a simulation inside your computer inside your home inside the Matrix again.

This game is great. Don't let the indicated hours played fool you. I played it for at least 200 hours more. There are great Mods such as Brytenwalda, the GoT Mod or the Diplomacy Mod out there. And the base game already occupied me for said 200 hours. Buy it, unless you want to play M&B: 2

This is a simple and fun game. The German translation is horrible, though. To all developers: Please don't feature a translated version of your game, unless it's handled by a professional translator, who is a native speaker.

In my honest opinion, Twilight Struggle is the best board game out there. It's great to see it going online! I'm a board game enthusiast and this is my number #1 game come to life on the #1 Computer gaming platform. Don't think about it dammit. PLAY!

This is a very fun and atmospheric survival game. After a few failed attempts (dead in 3-4 days) I have survived for 3 months now and I have a fortified house, a good deal of my walled off garden dedicated to growing produce so I don't starve and several rain collector barrels. I trap animals in the woods and go on supply runs every other day.

9/10 - once it's finished, I believe it will be a 10/10.
