Distant Worlds 2

Distant Worlds 2 continues the 4x strategy of the same name, but on a new 64-bit engine, with updated 3D graphics and a sophisticated interface. Here the user will have to start his own story in a vast world, acting in real time. The game focuses on multiplayer, where at the start you are asked to choose a side in the conflict, and then start customizing and setting up the Universe, thanks to the built-in editor.

The user in the space simulator is transported to a huge Galaxy, which consists of more than 2 thousand star systems, many thousands of planets, moons, asteroids that have to be explored and used, for example, for the extraction of valuable minerals or conquest. It is also possible to establish diplomatic relations with the local inhabitants here. Thanks to the in-game editor, the gamer himself sets various parameters, for example, selects the required number of star systems, planets, asteroids, spaceships, bases, enemy monsters, and sets attributes for his Empire. If necessary, the player can always activate help to learn from the description about the different elements located on the screen, or read the Galactopedia, which is also included here, where game elements and tools are described. In the space simulator, you need to act in each of the sectors of the Galaxy, trying to get your own benefit from exploration, exploitation, expansion of territory and destruction of opponents.

The virtual universe is huge in size and there are 7 different types of factions living here, each of them which have individual characteristics and style of passage. The main task of the user is to rebuild and improve his empire, constantly meeting with representatives of other powers, ordinary aliens, their colonies, as well as merchants, pirates and monsters, with whom he will engage in battles in real time, gradually revealing secrets. Here you can control only one ship, which is upgraded in the process, and build an entire empire out of it, gradually expanding the transport with the help of modules.
