What is Galactic Civilizations

Galactic Civilizations is a turn-based, 4X space strategy game developed and published by Stardock. Humans compete with aliens for control of the galaxy in the 23rd century, using diplomacy, trade, culture, scientific research, and interstellar warfare to achieve their goals.

Players start with their homeworld and a scout ship to find neighbors and habitable planets, a survey ship to extract secrets from the anomalies that dot the galactic landscape, and a colony ship to found their first offworld colony.
