Very fun quick 4X game

I bought this game on Steam for my PC and immediately fell in love with it. I ended up bought ALL its DLCs including the soundtrack. When I saw this game was available in App Store, I immediately bought it again. Originally I wanted to play on my iPad, but now I am playing on my iPhone.

If you like to play 4X games but feel it takes too much time, you should try this one. If you (like me) especially like to see how your empires grow with satisfactory boarder map grow, you cannot miss this one. I own hundreds of games but have much less stamina now due to old age, but in last 2 years I played this games more times than any other games, because it’s fun and didn’t take days to finish. It has such a charm that whenever I started to play it, I enjoy it and cannot stop.

This is the first long review I ever left for any game, iOS or PC. I just wish more people can enjoy this little gem, and let its developer receive more appreciation so they can developer similar and better games in the future.

Very good, could be better

Really love how simple but fun this still is. Scratches my 4x itch on mobile while waiting at the airport and stuff.

Biggest complaint is the font size and icons and everything is so small. The UI in general is hard to read on an iPhone. But you eventually figure it out and it’s fine.

Tolles 4X Spiel

Anfangs etwas undurchsichtig , dann entpuppt sich das Spiel aber als tolle und fordernde Strategieperle. Man muss verschiedene Felder erobern und dann Technologien weiterentwickeln, die mehr Geld / Nahrung oder Forschungspunkte bringen. Am besten ein YouTube Tutorial anschauen.
Ihr solltet kein Telefon kleiner als IPhone Pro Max nutzen , wegen der Bildgröße.

4x on the road

Really cool implementation of a 4x, love to play it on my commute. I think it's worth the price, but it gets a little repetitive later on. Definitely recommend

Response from developer

Thank you for the review! Glad you like the game!

Best 4x game on mobile!!

I love this game! I’m a Civilization player for decades and now I found my jewel on mobile. Devs, please bring this game even further! More objective cards, more maps and hopefully a PvP mode on mobile. But thanks for this already awesome game! Keep up the good work!
