What players think
The recurring themes across 60 analysed reviews: what players praise, what divides them, and what to know.
Go play MoO for the retro charm and still functional gameplay, or go play Stellaris for the latest, most up to date, and actually enjoyable experience in the genre.
Having at least some flourish is good since the graphics won't look dull so quickly.
You can't build military ships on planet but instead you have to go to the shipyard menu and assign them to build, granted it is a unique idea to have the shipyard level up and become better at making them but when you can only pump out 3 ships every 5 turn and that battle just blew up 6 of them its easy to snowball your way to victory, especially with how siege is done.

Every theme is scored by what reviewers actually said about it, not just whether they recommended the game.
Ranked by how many sampled reviews mention each topic. A topic sits in a column by what reviewers said about that topic; the percentage beside it is how many of them recommended the game anyway.
