What is StarDrive?
StarDrive is a single-player, real-time space strategy game with a view that zooms from an empire map to ship combat. Starting with one planet and a few ships, you explore and colonize worlds, research technologies, negotiate with other races, design ships from modules, and command fleets as you build a galactic empire.
For you if...
- +you enjoy real-time strategy and expanding a space empire
- +you like designing ships from modules for combat
- +you want diplomacy, research, and espionage alongside battles
Not for you if...
- −you prefer turn-based decisions over real-time strategy
