Although the name is kind of dopey, it perfectly illustrates the central tenet at work here-that a sci-fi game about space ships is more compelling than a sci-fi game about population growth, unrest levels, or trade routes (all of which are present but not prominent). Here are some excerpts from CD Mag's excellent review that may just change your mind: " Starships Unlimited is driven by that rarest of commodities in the computer game business: a great idea fleshed out into an entire game. Why should you care about this 4X shareware underdog if you love MOO? The game claims to "combine the flow of real-time strategy games with the detailed control of turn-based games"-and it does fulfill that claim, even if that it only means a real-time game that can be sped up or slow down, and automatically pauses when important event occurs. One of the most underrated and unknown "4X" space strategy games ever made, Starships Unlimited is an incredibly addictive game that plays like a unique cross between Master of Orion and Homeworld.
