Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Every market we collect.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 0.43/day in the week to Sep 8 → 0.86/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 23 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 14 places towards #1, and the 2,515 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

Add-ons
Each DLC is estimated with the same model as a game, then summed — a modeled figure, not reported DLC sales.
Sums Steam only; Xbox, Epic publish no volume signal, so the true total is higher by an unknown amount.
Updates
Build ids and update times come straight from Steam's PICS — the same source SteamDB reads. Patch history grows as we record new builds.

Reviews
Sono un giocatore anziano, particolarmente attratto dalla tipologia 4x e non potevo farmi mancare GALCIV che Stardock, da almeno una ventina di anni puntualmente cerca di evolvere nelle sue meccaniche, ambienti e grafiche di gioco. Per questo genere di giochi vale assolutamente la regola di comprarli quando il prodotto è assolutamente maturo , essendo i problemi di bilanciamento molto frequenti e quindi facili a rovinare completamente l'esperienza di gioco. La mia recensione quindi è fatta tenendo tutti i DLC installati e aggiornati alla release 4.53. Per farla breve il gioco è certamente molto interessante, profondo e carico di strategie possibili da attuare per appagare la curiosità e la sete di espansione. Dopo 32 ore però mi trovo sulle spalle 5 o 6 partite frutto della necessità di ripartire da capo mano a mano che cresceva la mia competenza e certe questioni si chiarivano. Il gioco si divide in tre ere: espansione, guerra e ascensione , e il fatto di ripartire non mi permette per il momento di dare un giudizio completo anche sul middle game e sulle fasi finali. Sappiate solo che in 32 ore non mi è mai capitato di essere attaccato da una fazione avversa. C'è inizialmente talmente tanto da fare che l'aspetto militare deve necessariamente passare in secondo piano. Chi si polarizza molto sugli aspetti tattici sappia che comunque le battaglie si autorisolvono (anche visualizzandole, utile per capire l'efficacia delle armi e dei dispositivi) e vanno quindi pensate solo in preparazione. Per me non è stato comunque un problema essendo da sempre interessato molto di più all'aspetto strategico. Pur riservandomi di ritornare su quando avrò completato almeno una partita devo esprimere un giudizio largamente positivo. Si fatica a smettere turno dopo turno. Al lavoro mentre vi parlano sarete distratti dal pensiero di quale strategia adottare nella vostra partita che avete lasciato a casa. Inoltre a sconto, si trova oggi tutto completo veramente a poco. Finanziate Stardock se lo merita.

Very Fun & Addictive game.
Good game, not as much fun as two, but better than 4
Io valuto i giochi da 1 stella a 5 stelle. questo è valutato 2. Non fatevi ingannare dal tempo giocato perchè spesso lascio i giochi in stand by o peggio mi ci addormento sopra. Questo è un giocone, bello, ma riservato agli appassionati di giochi strategici di esplorazione e conquista spaziale. Come tutti questi giochi sconta un pò il fatto che alla fine ogni giocatore sviluppa un modo di giocare ripetitivo.
its fresh and makes you think.

ich weiß nicht wie es anderen geht, doch diese immer fort laufende gleiche dusselige Musik ist auf Dauer wie ein schreiendes Kind oder eine Kettensäge. Ganz ohne ist nicht, da die Menü Töne fast nur piepsen. lange spielen ist da nicht drin. Wirst ja blöde. Wie die Rosenberg in Dauerschleife. Furchtbar.
Ah yes, Galactic Civilization III. The crown jewel of space turn based strategy. A game with so much stuff that people can fail to realize just how easy this game really is. The thing about this game is that the combat makes no sense and unless you spend hours figuring out how fleet composition works then you never really feel like you know how to win. GameSpot gives this game a 10/10 on realistic Space combat. That being said, this game allows you to be in debt and charge your citizens a 0% tax rate. C`C~P gives this game a 10/10 for realistic communism- I mean economy. In general, mercenaries are the way to win the game, so once you have access to them, forget ship upgrades and building your own military and just buy yourself one. But really, who wanted a several day lasting game with epic politics and total space opera immersion when you can just buy mercenaries and win in a few hours?
its a soul sucking life ending good time
A game series that I return too again and again. I love the level of customization you can have with your play experience. No two games will play the same even if you employ a single strategy in all of them.
