Its ok [Posted on 2001-04-24] This game is complex its not even fun to find out all the options. What is anoying is that when u in middle of the game u have so many units and u have to give a command to every single one of them, yes u can automize them but that will do no good to ur military units. Some times if ur lucky the gamefun will be 3 stars but most of the levels i played turnd out to be boring either i lost fast or it was 2 easy. Also sometimes when the game is over anyways and one of the leaders has clearly won, the game still goes on for an hour. Dont forget the game is more then 3 years old get something better for ur money for example:"Warlords Battlecry" or "Cossaks European Wars". I dont recommend this game though its not catastrophic either!
Too Bad! [Posted on 2001-05-06] This game looked really good for the price, but IT DIDNT WORK! I changed my PC but still having problems with TERRAN or whatever that is. Maybe I'll try it again
Almost Perfect [Posted on 2001-06-27] This game is great, original even, thought inspiring. Whoever made thios had a lot of time on teir hands. However, It's not realistic enough to be real.
A masterpiece... [Posted on 2003-12-26] I must admit, that when I first played Alpha Centauri I did'nt think too much of it. I got it of a friend, so I had to learn all of the controls without an instruction book. Now THAT is challenging. When I learned to play, however, I realised that this game could not have been made less complex than it is without slicing away some important pieces of the gameplay. The complexity is fascinating in itself, and the fact that the game is turn-based provides a relaxed feeling which is well needed in the current computer game climate. Alpha Centauri is an amazingly good game, on the border to perfection. It's time consuming, no doubt, but anyone with a bit of patience has countless hours of interesting gaming ahead of them.
Civ in Space (follow the ship you launched in Civ 1) [Posted on 2005-09-28] Great game, if you like Civilization. It basically picks up with the colony ship you launched in Civilization, as it arrives at Alpha Centauri.
The best part about the game is the movies that play whenever you build a Wonder of the World. They're entertaining and even a bit educational.
