Review on Game Squad

Posted: 9 NOV 2011

8.5 - Distant Worlds: Return of the Shakturi is a worthwhile expansion to a solid 4X strategy game. Really, there is no reason why a dedicated DW fan should pass it up.

Review on Space Sector

Posted: 10 OCT 2011

8.7/10 - DW RotS made me feel in control of the lives and hopes of my civilization, I cared for them and could feel immersed in a huge galaxy interacting with other alien races. And that in my opinion is what 4X games are all about. That was one of the reasons I took so much time to review RotS, I was really enjoying playing :) And I will continue playing no doubt about that.

The unbelievable vastness of the galactic environment modeled when fused with game play infinitely customizable to the players taste could well make this game an instant classic.

9/10 - Everything that didn't convince us in the almost perfect Distant Worlds has disappeared and there are a few improvements too.
