The value story

The value story

It has been discounted 22 times in the 3 years tracked here. The median cut across all of them is 50 percent, about 7 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended about 4 weeks ago.

It is pricier than 97 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 99 percent. Sins of a Solar Empire®: Rebellion ($19.99, scores 92) outscores it, and so does Galactic Civilizations IV ($39.99, scores 21). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

Don't do it. Devs have completely abandoned the game, and it was never completed. A half-baked mod that they conned people into paying $30 for...

Too bugy. I conquered the entire Cardasian Union (all systems & all planets), but the game says I lost. Events that require certain Traits do not activate at all. A real bummer. I last played on the 3rd of Augast 2026 for referance.

Star Trek: Infinite has a really good foundation and, as a Star Trek fan, there is a lot here that I genuinely like. The setting works well, the major factions are interesting, and the game has many of the ingredients needed for a great Star Trek grand strategy experience.
