SpaceCiv

The setup

What you are walking into

SpaceCiv is a persistent, browser-based multiplayer 4X strategy game about colonizing space — one that you can play at your own pace, even while you're away. You start small: a lone colony on a single world, an economy to balance, a first ship to build. From there you explore your home system, reach for other stars, and grow an empire that expands until it collides with the domains of real players around you. Six playable races each bring a distinct identity — from the balanced, diplomatic Terrans to the swift raiding Felari, the hive-like Brood, and the exotic Voidborn — with fleets you design and fit to your strategy. The galaxy itself is shared and ever-growing, expanding as new players arrive, with an endless frontier to explore and a contested heartland worth holding. Play it calm or play it cutthroat. Build a beautiful, humming empire, cooperate in alliances, or fight for dominance across seasonal ages that each end in a galaxy-shaping reckoning — and whose greatest deeds are recorded in a chronicle that outlasts them. However you play, your empire keeps living while you're offline, and the story you leave behind endures.
