“The Lord of Orion,” released in 1993, is a beloved classic for many gamers. And it is well-deserved that this game holds the top spot among global strategies in the computer industry. This was the thought that guided NGD Studios developers when creating the stunning remake of the original.
The creators decided not to bother with improving the software and instead used a fundamentally new engine. They adapted the gameplay to modern standards and maximized the graphics, which particularly pleased the players. They only left the classic mechanics and setting unchanged. The plot is based on a distant future in which the galaxy is populated by 9 intelligent races, and the player must lead one of them while the other 8 are already under the control of artificial intelligence.
According to the game’s economic model, players must constantly engage in resource extraction, settlement, colonization, and the development of new worlds. Various interactions between races are possible, such as military and trade alliances, as well as various contracts. The use of bribery, plunder, or theft inevitably leads to war, as you are dealing with a multifunctional military strategy.
The planets in the game’s galaxy are very diverse, and the winner acquires complete economic Monopoly or wipes all opponents off the face of the earth. But that’s not all! You can always explore the technologies of the Ancients, fight the Guardians, or engage in the study of the system of scientific discoveries in the game. You will definitely find it interesting!
