So what went wrong with this game?
Based on reviews for this game, I knew that it was crap but for $10, I wanted to know why? There's a very simple explanation: the guys who coded Moo1 and Moo2 had absolutely nothing to do with Moo3. Wikipedia was very... Read Full Review

If you have ever played Master of Orion I or II do NOT even open the box, burn it and flush the ashes.
Well, what can I say. It is the worst PC game sequel ever. An analogy to movies would be Caddyshack II. I do not know the buffer on this text window, but I could fill it with point after point about how bad this game ... Read Full Review

There is a decent game there, but only for people with the patience to climb the steep and brutal learning curve.
I was like every other MoO fan and bought this game when it first came out. I tore open the box and pulled out the instructions (Yeah, I’m one of those strange people who reads the docs.). After 15 minutes of reading t... Read Full Review

Listen to the reviews! This game is the worst ever!
So... I loved MOO2 so much, I ignored all the terrible reviews and tried this game. What a gigantic disappointment. It's nothing like the second game, not even close. Everything takes forever. They took the good things t... Read Full Review

MOO3 is an spacealien artifact. First it was beamed into the head of the developer, forgotten, mixed-up, and finished.
Okay, first get the 2CD version of the game so the patch 1.25 can be installed. Next get the Install Checker and check the game. Then go over to http://www.moo3.at/ and get a game play MOD that fixes the game or visit th... Read Full Review

What a shame
A have allways loved the Master of Orion series. I had waited so long for this game, and now that I have it, I would have to say one of the worst games I ahve ever played. It is overcomplicated with useless features I do... Read Full Review

Atari, listen up - Power Point is not a game engine! You shouldn't do anything this dull without a paycheck.
This may be the most boring "game" ever. Old text-only versions of Zork are more captivating and rewarding. I love turned based strategy games and enjoyed the original MOO and MOO2... this isn't even a shadow o... Read Full Review

I have played hundreds of games in my life and this is the worst sequel I have ever played.
If MOO2 had not been the greatest game of all time, or if I had never played it before I played MOO3, I might have found some playability in it. But I threw the game away after trying to play it and finding out how bad i... Read Full Review

Don't get it online
Well, I freely admit: I loved this game. So much that I decided to try it again (Missing the whole MOO series, probably). Couldn't find my originals, so I got it from online. Not having to use the disk was a nice feature... Read Full Review
