Another one of those games where I have basically only eever played mods (star gate/trek/wars). Holds up even today, fairly easy 4x to get into.
The definitive version of the original Sins of a Solar Empire, so get this instead of Trinity. This expansion adds all kinds of new content, such as minor factions, new planets and ships, random events, and more gameplay variety with different factions. With a solid foundation, the modding community have made this into one of the best space strategy games out there. The best Star Trek mod is Star Trek Armada III, and is one of the most awarded mods of all time. The Star Wars equivalent is Star Wars Interregnum, which fills the void left by 2006's Empire At War (yes, it's been 20 years since we've had a proper Star Wars strategy game). The mods really extend the life of this game, and the visuals and audio still hold up. A good buy to round out your Steam library!
[h3]Космос оказался слишком сложным.[/h3] К сожалению, это не моя игра. Я честно пыталась разобраться. Провела почти 4 часа, запускала новые партии, изучала интерфейс, пыталась понять, что вообще нужно делать... Но в итоге так и не смогла втянуться. Игра явно рассчитана на людей, которые любят глубокие 4Х-стратегии с большим количеством механик, экономики, исследований и управления целой космической империей. Но для новичка она ощущается как настоящая стена из информации. Обучение практически не помогло, интерфейс перегружен, а игра будто ожидает, что ты уже знаешь половину её правил. Вместо удовольствия большую часть времени я испытывала лишь растерянность. Не могу сказать, что игра плохая - скорее, она просто слишком сложная для меня. Но если спустя почти четыре часа я так и не поняла, как в неё нормально играть, значит знакомство оказалось неудачным. Если вы фанат сложных космических стратегий - возможно, вам понравится. Но если только хотите познакомиться с жанром, я бы посоветовала начать с чего-нибудь более дружелюбного.
Oldy but very goody - tight, polished, intense wargame. Almost no fluff, yet still enough of strategic and tactical depth to keep the player on edge. One more hidden advantage - it's a very portable game as it runs nearly on everything today, so you one can play it on an office-level laptop when travelling.
Honestly, this game is [b] one of the best 4x rts games [/b] in this platform, if you like space, huge battles, and simple economy this game has it. And the mods the game has to offer is vast, with things like star trek and star wars.
Good for Cats to Play

Best old school 4x RTS on the market
One of the best strategy games ever. Really love how everything in this game is real-time unlike Civ or TotalWar, it gives a totally different felling like your empire is a real living breathing thing
Sins of a Solar Empire: Rebellion is one of my favourite RTS games of all time. I effing love this game, it's epic and has some AMAZING mods from a very dedicated community. It's straight up better than its sequel, 8/10 game. (Wish the sequel had just refined the downsides of Rebellion instead of ruinining the good things)
