Overview

Features & Capabilities

The galaxy has been a peaceful place for many years. After the ruthless Terran–Hegemony War, much effort has been employed by all major spacefaring species to prevent the terrifying events from repeating themselves.

The Galactic Council was formed to enforce precious peace, and it has taken many courageous efforts to prevent the escalation of malicious acts.

Nevertheless, tension and discord are growing among the seven major species and in the Council itself. Old alliances are shattering, and hasty diplomatic treaties are made in secrecy.

A confrontation of the superpowers seems inevitable—only the outcome of the galactic conflict remains to be seen. Which faction will emerge victorious and lead the galaxy under its rule?

The shadows of the great civilizations are about to eclipse the galaxy.

A game of Eclipse Second Dawn places you in control of a vast interstellar civilization, competing for success with its rivals. You will explore new star systems, research technologies, and build mighty spaceships. There are many potential paths to victory, so you need to plan your strategy considering the strengths and weaknesses of your species, while paying attention to the other civilizations' endeavors.

Eclipse other civilizations and lead your people to victory!

The one thing keeping this from being a fove star review is the fact that you can't enlarge the text; on a phone, there's stuff that's almost unreadable. Otherwise, this is a good adaptation of an excellent board game.

Love the game but clunky ui adaptation and stopped working after the first play session. Have to reinstall each time i want to play. Definitely not worth the price in this state. Edit: Also crashed in game, after upgrading a ship, part piece was stuck over board and quitting to menu and resuming could not load game properly. Sadly refund option is gone. Bad port, do not buy.
