DESCRIPTION
In Sins of a Solar Empire, gamers must conquer planets and defeat their enemies to become the most menacing force in space. Both single- and multiplayer action takes place in real-time, and gamers may choose to play alone or challenge friends to a "domination fest."
To survive the hostile world, players must align with one of three factions: The Advent, the Vasari Empire, or the Trade Emergency Coalition. Each group is vying for top spot and may use force, technological research, democracy, alliances, and devious trickery to obtain the position. For example, the game features a bounty hunting system where gamers may silently offer a reward for the destruction of a particularly annoying enemy unit.
Players who would rather stay honest may use the diplomacy system to compromise with their adversaries instead of gaining power through illicit actions. Aside from combat, gamers colonize planets and harness resources that can improve a variety of their faction's functions. ~ Gracie Leach, All Game Guide

“re-imaging the great classic gameplay of old school 4x strategies, sose really makes it proud and loud!
in these times for gaming industry, making this kind of master piece should b welcomed with open arms. especially since the accomplishment is so clean and sleek, unlike many bug ridden products of now-days.
for any real 4x fan, this is a must and a need!”

“I think it's a great game... haven't gotten the expansions yet, but I plan on eventually. I prefer the Vasari, because you can research the resource quickening for both metal and crystal as one unit, but the Advent's hive mind always attracts me.”

“Decided to take the Vasari for a spin today, playing against the AI. Seems their ships are way more expensive and not all that much stronger really. Could also be that I'm just tired. Oh well...”

“An incredible 4x game, but with plenty of action! The scope of this game is enormous, from the number of technologies you can research, to the size of the solar systems you can play in. Everything just works as it should.”

“I love the 6 hour long campaigns with epic battles and gritty diplomacy, it is where Sins of A Solar Empire shines, moments where you feel like an intergalactic space commander.”
