ABOUT THE GAME

Get ready to explore, discover and interact with a multitude of species as you journey among the stars. Forge a galactic empire by sending out science ships to survey and explore, while construction ships build stations around newly discovered planets. Discover buried treasures and galactic wonders as you spin a direction for your society, creating limitations and evolutions for your explorers. Alliances will form and wars will be declared.

Like all our Grand Strategy games, the adventure evolves with time. Because free updates are a part of any active Paradox game, you can continue to grow and expand your empire with new technologies and capabilities. What will you find beyond the stars? Only you can answer that.

Stellaris the Space HOI4
Stellaris is a special game to me as growing up i loved watching star wars and i loved strategy games, i play HOI4 (hearts of iron 4) way too much but when i learnt that there was a space version of it, i thought that my dream had come true. Stellaris is an amazing game and i love playing it however my biggest problem with the game is that there are too many DLC. i only own Utopia and Distant Stars because those are the best ones. i highly recommend getting this game
The Pros
- Create your own Species
- Conquer the stars in your galaxy
- Ship Builder
- Beautiful looking game
The Cons
- The Game feels like it is missing a lot if you dont have any of the DLC
- hard to learn the basics

Amazing
The 'BEST' 4X RTS space Grand Strategy game. So much rich depth, late game, DLC content, moddable, multiplayer. It doesn't have a campaign per-say, but every single player game you do play will still feel like it is as the story revolves around your actions and diplomacy with the other alien races. You won't be sorry with the purchase!
The Pros
- everything
The Cons
- learning curve can be a bit much in some aspects of the game

4x Game
I don't why I didn't buy it after launch but I love the Strategy genre and also sci-fi, Stellaris is a game that lets you do almost everything to prosper and co-exist in peace or warmongering and destruction of every other species in the galaxy also you create your own species with custom traits and such. For its price 4€ on cdkeys its a bargain + with dlcs

The game is good but it may not be for anyone. it is a niece type of game. some call it "numbers in space" and that is not untrue. but it gave me what it had promist and more, so i will give it 100/100.
The Pros
- the story generator is pretty good.
The Cons
- some times the game is very hard and then some times its pretty easy.

Amazing 4X
One of the best 4X you can play right now. Lots of systems and things to learn, but that's part of it. Music is also great, and there's lots of mods as well (and DLCs)
The Pros
- - you can easily play for hundred of hours- Soundtrack- regular updates
The Cons
- - Battles are somehow boring to watch, especially after player Endless Space 2.
