Synopsis:

You started with your colonization ship from earth, but something went terribly wrong and suddenly you find yourself in an unknown galaxy. Colonize the planets, build an armada to defend your people and strive for new technology. Crush your enemies to reign the galaxy or unite it in peace.

A nice turn-based game, though the graphics seem a bit rough for today. Anyway, playing it is fun. The game can be configured to be very complicated with thousands of systems and your own shipyards. Very addictive.
