    Legends brings you a living breathing galaxy to explore. I has great depth and a very good storyline that will give you many hours of enjoyment. Beginning from the start you must build ships, research and explore for planets or resources while maintaining a budget. Along the way you face many obstacles including pirates, space creatures and other alien races. Negotiate trade agreements orLegends brings you a living breathing galaxy to explore.

As you expand a story will develop that will give you hints on the troubles you will face. A very good game in my opinion.… Expand

    This game comes at a premium price no doubt, asking for $80 for a package of the main game the 2 (almost necessary) updates put it in a higher echelon of prices but now that I have it and have put some time into learning it I can definitely say this game is the real deal!

    If you enjoy conquering space in your own way by building a ridiculous fleet of steel, or letting the AI handle the performance for you (which is does very well) then you should definitely give this game a chance. The game feels natural and unforced, it's a very deep and varied system of politics, science, and expansion. Very fun to play.

    I won't compare this 4X titan to others in the genre but I can say that this game stands on its own very easily. This is one of the very best sci-fi 4x games, even though it's basically unheard of. Give this game a chance you won't regret it!    … Expand

    Great game, i really love the depth in it. If it had GFX like homeworld it would be a real Legend! 4x Space fan? Don't miss it, you will be suprised after you get used to the graphical interface and somehow old GFX style.

    Distant Worlds has ruined me for other space-based 4X-strategy games, which is a genre I love more than any other. I try to go back to GalCiv and MoO once in a while, but nothing matches the scale and minute level of control that Distant Worlds offers. I'll be playing this for years to come.
