But it retains a simplicity that allows you to focus on important decisions and finish a game or two in a lunch break. The trick is to lay out your network efficiently, since routes between planets can't overlap initially, and unhappy populations will eventually end your reign as galactic leader.Īround that core lies other systems, including science research, a council of aliens to satisfy, and more that elevate it from simple puzzle to rich strategy game. By linking planets together via warp gates, you transport goods around, and must link up your planets in such a way that their populations remain happy. Each planet wants a resource and produces a resource. At its core is an idea so simple that it's almost a puzzle game.
