The Last Federation



In The Last Federation you start as a single ship in a system or quadrant or something and from there it's open slather to choose from a bunch of possible actions with the ultimate goal of creating a peaceful federation - the titular LAST FEDERATION.
Contains top down ship combat, you issue a move order (or special action) and attacking orders (selecting a firing mode, weapon) then it plays out in real time. Ships can be upgraded, technologies found, purchased, stolen or researched, outposts built, missions are carried out etc and so on. There are several options, positive and negative, for dealing with the local species as they emerge into the space age and these need to be considered and balanced to get the right number of civilisations into the federation.

VERDICT: Enjoyed the hour I played and wanted to keep going, try the next thing. That's always a positive sign.

FINAL WORD: CHECK OUT A PROPER REVIEW
