Age of Wonders: Planetfall

I like burning people

Solid game. What to say? If you are familiar with AoW series, it's basically same, space theme working quite well imho. Yes, it gets repeatable after some time, typically I drop manual combat after few hours as it only distracts me from colonization. Strength of Planetfall lies in variety - 6 races are indeed different and it's fun to test each one of them - personally I like Kir'ko and Dvar the best. Definitely better than Civ: Beyond Earth which was big disappointment to me.

delicious mash up of hell-divers, xenomorphs, space dwarves, psi fish, dinosaurs, and even furries. you name it. you will have a good time. its got all the sci-fi stuff thrown into a blender and somehow pulls it off.

在战棋游戏里可以给棋子穿装备，又可以自动战斗（并且可以放心大胆的用），还可以培养最强[strike]宝可梦 [/strike]英雄砍瓜切菜，这游戏好酷啊

Very fun 5x game that combines XCOM elements if desired, 10/10. Also has a great selection of Mods and an easy interface to enable/disable them.

This is one of the best Age of Wonders releases! The factions are compelling and flavourful, and the campaigns are truly cool. I love the dynamic of playing as one ruler across multiple planetary campaigns, each planet having different modifiers and ecosystems. My favourite play-through was as a somewhat Egyptian themed, motorcycle-driving Assembly pharaoh, conquering the wasteland ruins of a former metropolis planet with a gang of scrap cyborgs. I hope to see a newer reincarnation of this, but until then I will continue to play Planetfall!

I really hope they will make the second installment, with Secret Tech implemented like AoW4 Tomes - to be selected separately through the game, not picked once at the beginning. For sci-fi fans like me this game is a must have- tons of great stuff, concepts and creatures familiar from books and TV shows.

Nice campaign of conquering planets and creating stronger and stronger empire. The battles are a breath of fresh air compare to other titles like Civ, not just stack units close to enemy city and fire each every turn, this is much better.
