SETTING
The ancients who named this sector Polaris sure had a unique sense of humor. Polaris - the bright star, the star of hope and faith. Well the Polaris sector has precious little of either. Just a wilderness of gas, stars, and supernovas soaked in treachery, oppression, and the lust for power.
Can anyone build an empire in a place like this? Other factions are naturally suspicious of newcomers and may wage war at the first sign of unidentified craft. Here, a natural death is an uncommon luxury. You look weak? Pirates and scavengers will plunder your planets. You show military strength to discourage potential enemies? Your rivals will combine their forces to eliminate the threat.
STRATEGY
Total domination requires many diverse stratagems. Shaking the hand of a powerful emperor, designing new warships in secret, investing everything in fundamental sciences to gain technology before your competitors - all may be the road to success. But will you have the time to implement your strategy? Will you be visionary enough to build weapons and technologies that will make the difference in battles fought decades from now? Find the right balance between fundamental and applied sciences to stay ahead of the opposition. Find the right balance between classic designs and crazy prototypes and your ships will be feared across the galaxy. Your engineers and scientists provide you a high level of flexibility, but it’s your decisions that will shape the empire’s fate.
SHIP DESIGN
You have full control over ship design: want to make a corvette into a drone carrier? Go ahead. Want to make a freighter into a scout? No problem. Your creativity is the only limit! Find the right balance between fundamental and applied sciences to stay ahead of the opposition. Find the right balance between classic designs and crazy prototypes and your ships will be feared across the galaxy. Your engineers and scientists provide you a high level of flexibility, but it’s your decisions that will shape the empire’s fate.
Many a mercenary or adventurer has come here seeking wealth and power, and all their stories are now just whispers in the void. Polaris is a black hole for living species, and empires rise and fall in the blink of an eye. Maybe the leader that will bring stability to this zone hasn’t been born yet, if they will ever exist…

Could've been successor to Space Empires V... but is abandoned game with playability killed by micromanagement (unless you decide to play small map) so in effect: a time waster.
Simple, but good. Not dlc hell like stellaris. You can have many fun hour from it. Perfect? Not, but nothing is that.
If you find the was of fighting to your like by videos give it a try
Distant Worlds 1/2 does not work on Steam Deck. Stardrive 1/2 does not work on Steam Deck. Sword of the Stars 1 does not work on Steam Deck. If you want an RTS/4x that isn't Sins of a Solar Empire... this is pretty much your only option... and it runs great. The game is a bit buggy, but so is every space 4x.
Such a good game, the mix between strategic and tactical layers is so nice
Clunky controls lacking basic QOL
Great game. Hoped for more content. Oh well.
There may be a decent game under here but I wouldn't know, because when I launch the game it tries to spread it over all of my screens, and opening the bloody settings screen crashes 90% of the time, and the 10% it does open the settings screen, the game doesn't recognise your resolution settings for a widescreen monitor.
Save your money, this is broken
