About
Nexus Legacy is a persistent online space strategy game about rebuilding civilization after the fall of the Nexus.
Start with a single planet, develop your economy, expand across the galaxy, research advanced technologies, build fleets, spy on rivals, raid vulnerable worlds, and fight for control of strategic regions. Every planet matters. Every fleet movement has a cost. Every mistake can become someone else’s opportunity.
The game is inspired by classic browser space strategies, but built with a modern approach: deeper logistics, commanders, planetary defense, espionage, piracy, alliances, markets, expeditions, wormholes, and long-term seasonal progression.
Build Your Empire
Develop mines, laboratories, shipyards, orbital infrastructure, colonies, moons, outposts, and sector stations. Your economy grows with every new colony, but expansion also increases the number of borders you must defend.
Command Your Fleets
Design fleets for different purposes: scouting, raiding, transport, defense, expedition, mining, siege, and alliance operations. A powerful fleet is not always the right fleet. Cargo capacity, travel time, fuel cost, range, escort composition, and target intelligence all matter.
Research Your Future
Unlock new buildings, ships, military systems, economic upgrades, logistics tools, and late-game technologies. Early progress is fast, but higher levels demand real investment and planning.
Spy, Raid, Defend
Information is a weapon. Use espionage to discover resources, fleets, defenses, and weaknesses before committing your ships. Launch attacks to break fleets and infrastructure, or raids to extract resources with ground forces and specialized support ships.
Join the Political Game
Form alliances, coordinate attacks, defend allies, trade resources, compete for territory, and participate in the shifting balance of power across multiple universes.
Explore the Unknown
Send fleets into expeditions, pirate zones, deep space anomalies, wormholes, and dangerous regions where risk and reward are never fully predictable.
Fair Monetization
Nexus Legacy does not sell resources, fleet power, combat boosts, or instant progress. Paid options focus on convenience, account services, cosmetics, and supporting development without turning strategy into a wallet contest.
A Living Universe
The galaxy keeps moving even when you log off. Fleets travel, colonies grow, rivals scout, alliances plan, and wars unfold over hours, days, and seasons. Nexus Legacy is built for players who enjoy long-term strategy, calculated risks, and the quiet satisfaction of seeing a plan come together.

Это не первая игра подобного жанра, в которую мне довелось поиграть. Текущая версия игры взяла все самое наихудшее: духота, нулевой баланс, скукота, долгая прокачка ради ничего, развитие никакое просто. Сам я еще попробую изучить "чудо" инженерной мысли и потом дополню отзыв. Сейчас же крайне не рекомендую, неистово не рекомендую играть в это. Я полагаю разработчик тоже играл в подобные игры и решил сделать "лучше", но вышло куда хуже. Ветераны космических экспансий в браузерном формате не смогли найти способ привлечь игроков. Здесь же пошли радикально: вывести поделку в стим. Я лично вижу ситуацию так, если все наихудшие стороны игры не будут исправлены - стим станет вам деревянным макинтошем. ПС не видитесь на красивы картинки и якобы интересный геймплей.
OGame is back baby. <3 Non p2w, kinda like oldschool OGame, but with a alot more focus on PvE. But PvP is still a thing. Lovely so far. Playtime on Steam is low since I play via Browser for the QoL Mods and Userscripts.

If you've ever played the old browser games like Utopia, Farahad or Planetarion you'll recognize a lot in this concept. Those early pioneers were some of my most treasured memories and so far this game is carrying the torch forward. Their documentation could improve though.
feels like old browser games (and that's meant in a very good way)
Absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.
Reminds me of the old browser-based multiplayer strategy games of the 2000s.
极度不推荐,先行者优势无限大,后来者的追赶机制和保护机制严重不足,只能沦为先行者的圈地肥羊。 大部分的改动都是在配合头部玩家,头部玩家缺什么资源,就放开什么资源刷新,先行者总能保持优势然后一波击杀你。 制作者封停账号也很针对国人,不玩了把资源给朋友,封。有新朋友来玩游戏,给点资源,封。制作者有最终解释权。 总结极度不推荐,是给老外内测玩家爽的游戏,服务的是那一小群头部玩家。 This game is not worth it! Not recommended! Stay away from this game!
Got hooked into this game - playable over steam, browser or app you dive into a browser-galaxy-game with multiple options. What I like most is the planet system where every planet is unique and you got to make a wise choice which planet to choose and where to settle with your alliance. Higher risk gives more ressources. Recently the combat system has also been reworked to make defenses very viable. Would recommend it - just dont take it too serious as a lot of hardcore gamer play it nearly 24/7
In its core, the game is interresting and a cool take on oldschool gaming, however the execution is so poor its not even funny. Defenses does nothing, if your enemy has enough fleet power they will just walk right over you without even a scratch to their paintjob. I do enjoy pvp games but this is just a joke, avoid it if you value eny fairness or tactical gameplay.
wait a few years
