First of, this game is not for everybody. But for those that love a good strategy game this is a great buy. You will however have to invest a lot of time to really appreciate it. + Immersiv game play
+ Strategic depth
+ Great graphics for a strategy game
+ Very replay able
+ Fun and interesting customization options, especially the ships
+ Mod able

- No multi player
- Steep learning curve
- Lack of information in-game, most notable in the tech tree
- Manual is too brief on just about everything

Some say that this is just "same old, same old". And if you have played masters of orion, and the like, a lot of it will feel the same, but no other game does "it" as well as Galactic Civ 2. Time just seems to flyby when you are playing.

Since I have played Master of Orion I & II until death (MoO III is dead to me) GalCiv 2 has filled a 4Xspace void in me.

So if you like strategy and have time and patience this is a game you should try!
