    When compared to the first Master of Orion this game loses sadly. I've tried very hard to enjoy this game because it has better graphics and such. But some how this game lost what is MOO. I recommend just getting the first one. Actually its so old now you can download the disks for free and play it with DOSBOX.

    Master of Orion 2 is just INTENSE! I absolutely loved this game and if you liked the original Master of Orion I think you will too.

    It's a high quality product that blends tactics, strategy and management into an accessible and playable game -- just watch out for the appearance of any latent megalomaniac tendencies.

    A great update of a classic game, even with the micromanaging. [Mar 1997, p.134]
