What Gamespot Users have to say about Galactic Civilizations II: Dread Lords
- Rating:8
This game is fine for casual gamers but not hardcore gamers, specifically hardcore strategists and tacticians.
This game was a dissapointment when compared to classics such as Master of Orion 2 , Shogun: Total War and Alpha Centauri. I think that the reason why people are rating this game so highly is because they have no poin... Read Full Review

Playing this game took an extremely long time, but was addicting and time seemed to fly by.
When I first opened GalCivII, I was pretty excited about its turn based type of motion and all its different features. It indeed lived up to the hype that I had heard from my friends, and soon I was sucked away into the ... Read Full Review

A overall nice game with a couple of flaws.
This is a great turn-based strategy game. Well, where should I start. The music in this game is amazing . It's so good that you cannot listen to your music because you want to listen to the Galactic Civilizations II musi... Read Full Review

A Sensational game, best of its genre.
Galactic Civilizations 2 : DA is one of those games you dont hear much about. Which is unfortunate because it really is one of the best Turn based strategy games ive ever played. Its a game that starts out like most TBS... Read Full Review

Just what all of you Master of Orion 2 fans have been waiting for.
Ever since playing MOO2 (Master of Orion 2) back when I was a little big kid, and after being disappointed in MOO3, I have been waiting for a turn based strategy game featuring galactic domination with numerous races and... Read Full Review

Very fun, and addictive
I never played the first game, but this one is very fun. Just making my ships has taken hours. I am going to have to get a new comp because on the huge galaxy random map it takes 10 minutes for the turn to cycle. Have no... Read Full Review

Fun on Steroids
I've been a Galactic Civilization fan for a long time, and Dark Avatar has only increased my loyalty to the series. If I could find three bad things to say about the game, one of them would be that once you get Dark Ava... Read Full Review

Galactic Civilizations Dread Lords continues to be a worthwhile game to own and play (and play again and again). The only thing that dragged me away from playing Dread Lords was the release of Dark Avatar. The nice t... Read Full Review

Two bad points... spying is now annoying and still no multiplayer.
Stardock changed and added alot of new strategic options with this expansion, it's not just one of those expansions that adds a race. The change to colonizing world (having to learn a tech to unlock certain worlds) is g... Read Full Review

A great space civilization game.
Okay, this is going to be a short one. Sweet, and to the point. Gameplay: It all depends on what you set it to. The lowest, if you're new, or the highest, if you want the greatest political, militarilistic, money-hog... Read Full Review
