Description:
Given the current preponderance of flashier sci-fi real-time strategy titles such as Star Wars: Empire at War, it's surprising to see a humbler, turn-based title like Galactic Civilizations 2: Dread Lords make such a strong showing. Taking the 4X design (explore, expand, exterminate and exploit) to new heights, Galactic Civilizations 2 offers staggering replayability thanks to its myriad of options including multiple paths (trade, military, etc.) to victory, cutstom race and ship design and fantastic AI that deftly adjusts itself to your actions with unique results. RTS fans may tire of the "turn, turn, turn and more turns" gameplay, but turn-based strategy fans - particularly Civ 4 buffs - should find this game a rare treat among 4X games.
