What is Annihilate The Spance?
This single-player real-time strategy game takes place across campaign missions in a future at war after the discovery of the Spance, a mysterious space anomaly. You build bases, manage resources and shipyards, and set waypoints to guide autonomous fleets through 3D battles rather than command individual ships.
For you if...
- +you enjoy planning bases and ship production
- +you want large space battles in a single-player campaign
Not for you if...
- −you want direct control over individual combat units
- −you prefer a completed campaign over Early Access content
- −you want forgiving missions with flexible solutions
What players say

Players praise the base building and watching large fleets clash. Complaints center on unfinished campaign content and uneven difficulty; some players also report crashes that cost progress because they cannot save during missions.
