About this game
Показати більше Згорнути
Stars in Shadow is a turn-based 4X science fiction strategy game. Explore the stars, settle distant worlds, and build an interstellar empire. Recover ancient technologies and negotiate with alien leaders. Created by a pair of passionate strategy gamers, Stars in Shadow features streamlined empire management, sophisticated turn-based tactical combat, and detailed world building.
FEATURES
Epic Scope:
Starting at the dawn of interstellar travel, progress through four eras of technological advancement. Discover the science of planetary terraforming, upgrade your infantry battalions to battle mechs, and grow your fleet from a squadron of destroyers to an armada of planet-destroying Dread Stars.
Varied Factions:
7 Playable factions comprising six alien races. Each faction has different research strengths and technology options. Forming alliances, conquering neighboring species, or discovering ancient artifacts may open up additional avenues of research. Choose your race wisely as it impacts which worlds will suit you, what trades or alliances may be offered, and whether or not your neighbors are inclined to trust you.
Stylized Setting:
A distinctive comic-book art style and an original, detailed universe backstory draw you into an immersive game world. Interact with a unique cast of alien characters, make friends and influence people, or crush your enemies and see them driven before you.
Focused High-Level Strategy:
Build a vast and varied empire, taking advantage of the unique traits offered by different alien populations and the worlds they inhabit. Experiments on a slave population might diminish your popularity in the Galactic Council. A streamlined resource and planetary improvement model keeps the game moving even when your empire grows large.
Deep Turn-Based Tactical Combat:
Face off against your opponents in complex 2D turn-based tactical battles. Counter your enemy’s missile barrage using point defense or interceptors, then close to energy weapon range! Stars in Shadow’s tactical engine includes several features rarely seen in turn based games. Multi-ship commands keep even large fleet battles fast-paced, and smart unit behaviors allow tight control with minimal micromanagement. Auto-resolve battles that are a foregone conclusion, while retaining the ability to replay any engagement to see exactly what happened.

Did you love Master of Orion 2? So did the devs, and this game is a love letter to it. I even dare say it's better, with a simplified and improved planet development system that hits the just right balance.
I'm sure I had no problems with SiS a few years ago when I played it, and really enjoyed it. But coming back to it here in 2026, it's IMPOSSIBLE even on "easy". Enemy ships are just, well, invulnerable. Missiles, figh...
Played this game a lot, it's simple in some aspects, but the one more turn, one more game feel is real. Nice thing to play when you played too much of Master of Orion 2 and wish for something different, but of the kind.
Fun retro spaceship combat

I'm sure I had no problems with SiS a few years ago when I played it, and really enjoyed it. But coming back to it here in 2026, it's IMPOSSIBLE even on "easy". Enemy ships are just, well, invulnerable. Missiles, fighters and bombers are useless, they all get destroyed on turn 1 - so half the game's weapon options are rendered tactically useless from the git go. It wasn't like this first time I tried it. It just sucks right now! The devs have obviously ruined it since!
