Galatic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition is so flexible, it can be any turn-based strategy game you'd like it to!
Galactic Civilizations is a recent discovery, but just what I'd been looking for. The tech tree is massive and the AI can be adjusted anywhere from moronic to insanely impossible. The game's scope is also very scalable... Read Full Review

If you are a Civilization Fan get it
Galactic Civilization is not a game that I would recommend to everyone, unless you are a Civilization fan you may not like it. I'm a Civ. fan and that's the reason I got it. My first impression was pretty disappointing, ... Read Full Review

Deep, smart, replayable, non-sterile strategy that lets you create a unique exciting and fun story every game.
GalCiv is simply one of the most immersive, addictive strategy games i've played (right next to the HOMM series). I just loved the atmosphere it creates right from the get go, and the story that YOU create, which is alwa... Read Full Review

"Exciting Star-Strategy with flavors of Civilization."
After logging in many hours of glactic battles and parsec expansion this game does not get old. The game has a very prominant Civ-like feel to it but I love the random event touch to add spice to the game. The CPU-oppone... Read Full Review

One of the few good 4X space empire games of the recent years, still cannot rival Master of Orion I & II
Brad Wardell and his team at Stardock have brought us a very decent turn-based title combining some simple macro elements found in Master of Orion I ( 1994 ) with basic Civilization concepts. The overall look is polished... Read Full Review

This is a fun, but not very deep game. In playing through Galactic Civilizations I found that I enjoyed playing the games, but had many turns that were nothing more than micromanagement or waiting for the next technology... Read Full Review

Galactic Civilizations is, overall, an enjoyable game. The graphics and sound are ho-hum, but in truth I like this fact as it has allowed me to install the game on my laptop for use while travelling. The true depth... Read Full Review

The game is defintly the best game out in this class right now, but I would have liked to play the alien races. Also all races use the same star sytems. It would have been more interesting for each race to have it's own ... Read Full Review

When I bought this game, I thought that this would be the space simulator/turn based strategy game I had been missing for a while. So I read the decent game instructions, and quickly became interested in trying it out. I... Read Full Review
