What is Auralux: Constellations?

A minimalist real-time strategy game set across planetary systems. You start with one planet, upgrade it, expand to others, and attack to take over the system. Each constellation changes the rules, with variations such as fog of war, moving planets, and wormholes. You can play alone or against friends locally or online.

For you if...

  • +you like slow-paced strategy built around planet conquest
  • +you want local or online matches against friends
  • +you enjoy adapting to different rules across constellations

Not for you if...

  • you want fast-paced real-time strategy battles
  • you prefer fixed rules across every constellation
  • you want detailed graphics rather than minimalist visuals
