You can tell the guys at Praxis Games really put a lot of thought into their game design (drawing on their experience from when they ran Space Sector, their old website dedicated to space/4x games), and have made a genuine effort to avoid a lot of the flaws & pitfalls common to so many 4x games. ISG sticks fairly close to the standard 4x formula, yet it still innovates some and includes some pretty cool features (such as Space Culture and the remote exploration mechanic).


It's not the "greatest game ever" - yet - but it's quite a lot of fun.

Interstellar Space: Genesis is definitely worth getting, especially in its current state (and at the current sale price ).
