If you like strategy, you should definitely give it a go. This confusion is particularly noticeable when moving around the playing area, because maps are quite large and you can easily get lost.Įven if you're not a big strategy fan, you'll appreciate Sins of a Solar Empire for its original gaming environment. As you can see, there are many elements to be taken care of, which means that the game may feel a bit overwhelming at the beginning. Solo gaming presents you with a series of scenarios and various challenges, including typical strategy elements such as diplomacy alliances, research and development of new strategies and a rather unconventional black market where you can trade crystal and metal without following the legal procedures. Sins of a Solar Empire features single player and multiplayer gaming modes (though the demo only lets you play the first one).
Graphics are just fine, certainly not as detailed as other strategy games that are set in historical environments though. And instead of conquering towns and villages, you take over planets. So, instead of using regular soldiers, horses, combat units or even tanks, you manage spaceships. This particular setting means that every element in the game is related to space.
