  • The game effectively captures the vibe and complexity of the original board game, making it a good way to learn the rules.
  • Gameplay is fast-paced and enjoyable, with strategic choices and different faction capabilities adding depth.
  • The developers have made improvements over time, fixing many bugs and enhancing the overall experience.
  • The user interface is clunky and poorly designed, requiring unnecessary clicks and making it difficult to access vital information.
  • There are significant bugs, including issues with the undo function and a lack of a save feature, which can disrupt gameplay.
  • The AI is often unchallenging and makes poor decisions, detracting from the overall experience.
  • gameplay
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is fast-paced and engaging, with AI players making quick decisions that enhance the overall experience, though players must stay attentive to the movement log. While there are minor bugs and a lack of animations, these do not significantly detract from the enjoyment, making it a solid early access board game port. Overall, the unique gameplay is well-received, with room for further polish.

    • “The gameplay is unique and interesting.”
    • “It's faster-paced than the board game since the AI players tend to take far less time to consider their next move and overall follow the gameplay, but that also means that they move quickly and you have to keep an eye on the movement log in order to know what is going on.”
    • “I actually find the lack of animations makes the game faster and thus more enjoyable, but it could still use a little more as long as it doesn't slow down gameplay.”
    • “There are a couple of unpolished details that, for now, don't influence gameplay and/or clarity.”
  • graphics
    4 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the graphics are praised for their beauty and quality, contributing positively to the game's visual experience. However, some users have reported significant bugs that detract from the experience, such as UI issues that obscure important elements on the screen.

    • “Graphics are beautiful.”
    • “The visuals are great, and the music is pretty good as well (though it can get repetitive after a while, but there's a decent variety in there).”
    • “In my first (and only) match, the graphics bugged out and displayed a bunch of resource cards right in the middle of the screen, covering up most of the planet in the center. Unfortunately, those cards couldn't be interacted with.”
    • “It's sad because the game itself and the graphics are mostly fine, but the controls and the UI feel like the result of a chaotic mishap.”
  • stability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the game demonstrates solid stability across various platforms, including the Steam Deck, though some users noted minor issues such as text readability on lower resolution screens. While the gameplay experience is enjoyable, there are reports of bugs that may affect the overall polish.

    • “Ran really well on everything I tried, even the Steam Deck. However, the 800p screen made some text hard to read. After playing 10 games, I went out and bought the physical version. It's a fun game, but the implementation is quite buggy.”
    • “The game crashes frequently, making it nearly unplayable at times. I expected better stability from a title like this.”
    • “I encountered several bugs that disrupted my gameplay experience. The game needs a lot of stability improvements to be enjoyable.”
  • music
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The music in the game is generally well-received, offering a good variety that enhances the experience, though some players note that it can become repetitive over time.

    • “The visuals are great, and the music is pretty good as well, though it can get repetitive after a while. However, there's a decent variety in there.”
