Sword of the Stars



An older sci-fi 4X with RTS elements in the battles. Yeah, it was probably cool when it came out, but I don't have time or the inclination to delve into it's complexities when it has been superseded by other, similar games. Galactic Civilizations 3 and Endless Space 2 spring to mind. They're not 1:1 replacements, but hopefully you get the idea. If you loved Sword of the Stars on release you're still going to enjoy it, but if you're new to the market and looking for a good 4X, look at something contemporary instead.

VERDICT: Stale bread. You can eat it, but why bother when there's a whole fresh loaf on the counter. 

Final Word: DON'T BOTHER
