I'd like to post a review, but I can't play it. Apparently, a very common problem with this game is that it won't let you register the CD-key. You have to register an account with the developer (even if you just wanna try the single player campaign), and the registration system is broken. It seems you can fix it by contacting support by email, but let's be honest: If you can't even get past the main menu without...

This game is just bad. Not bad as in buggy, or unfinished. Bad as in, just not fun, and down right boring. Although, it does have its share of bugs. I wasnt able to run it fullscreen without having the UI stop responding, and just to play the game single player, you have to create an online account that you log in with every time (just annoying). You spend most of the game looking at your ships as little blue dots,...

This game feels like it is still in beta with all the glitches. Pros: Good concept. I enjoy how quickly bases can be built if you have the resources which makes comebacks not entirely out of the picture. Easy to pick up. Cons: Ships will shake violently when trying to move and sometimes won't even move when part of a large selected group. AI is horrible for skirmishes. I played a skirmish where the AI...

Game requires a username and password everytime you play even when your not online. Also password recovery is a poorly designed system. While gameplay is good for an indie game it is not worth even a small amount of money considering the number of restrictions the creators put on the game. When games use too much DRM like this you basically buy the game to not play it.

This one is a tough one to rate. But in 2019 the game got a large patch that fixed a lot of the reasons people gave it a thumbs down. The game is stable now and no longer requires a registration. Is it worth $15? No. I think if the dev lowered it to $5 he'd probably make a lot more money. The story is not original, pretty much follows the exact storyline and game mechanics as Haegemonia. Though, I will say Gemini...

Bought it during a recent sale - did not know what to expect, was looking forward a HW kind of experience. But the lack of z, lack of overall graphical polishing and relative simplicity of the mechanics are a bit of a disappointment. Maybe the fact that I played some EVE Online between 2003 and 2011 didn't help much with my expectations :-/

Gemini Wars is a good game with a solid science-fiction story. It doesn't deserve the bad rating. I tested this game in 2012 and completed the campaign back then. Now, about 10 years later, i am playing the full campaign again. There are some minor bugs in the game but none that prevent me from finishing the game. Some of the smaller bugs are solved by loading a save of the current game. Most of the negative reviews...

This game is passable a passable RTS in space; there's just not enough here to keep me interested for long. Graphics are meh, strategy is so so, and the story is cliche. Manuevering your ships for that perfect ambush can be fun for a while. Get it on discount, and it might keep you occupied for a night or two.

Ships are slow and space is huge. While realistic, this results in slow burner battles. This isn't particularly bad, especially if you like to slowly build your forces and plan your attack plan. But no 10 / 15 minute matches here. Every battle builds up to a huge confrontation here.

I hate this game, because I could have spent those five hours playing something fun. This game isn't fun. The screenshots and the trailer will show you big ships and big fleets and big battles, trying to make you think that's what this game is about. They're lying. This game is about waiting for your resource counter to uptick just enough to build another tiny ship that will ignore group move orders to go check out...
