Hi,

I am trying to find out the name of a game i played long time ago.. and just am unable to remember it.. i will try to describe it as best as i can and hope someone knows what the hell im talking about Smile


its an old game.. set in space.. you could build on the surface of the planet..
i remember that the "grid" where you would be able to put your buildings was blue(ish).. you could spy the other races and their tech.. sometimes they would bomb your planet and you can see missiles flying down on your buildings Smile..

not sure when i played that game.. think it was 1999 or 98 or something..

oh something else i just remembered.. when you move between screens the current screen would move sideways with a "swoosh" sound Razz

anyone got a clue ?Smile

  • Space Empires?
  • Imperium Galactica?
  • Master of Orion?


I believe this list fit your description, but I'm not sure. I haven't played them in a decade or so.

Reunion maybe? Been a while since I played it, so don't know if it fits the description completely.

Also Tone Rebellion, Ascendancy, Into the Void, etc. Assuming it was 4x'ish.

Ah, Fragile Allegiance is excellent. Though those were asteroids, not planets.

It's rather buggy unfortunately. Seem to remember it crashing every few minutes when I last played it two-three years ago.
