Galactic Civilizations IV
Lead a young starfaring civilization from its first faster-than-light flight to galactic power. Explore procedurally generated galaxies, colonize worlds, design fleets, out-talk or out-fight rival empires, and win your way: by conquest, culture, diplomacy or prestige. Every run plays out differently, and no two empires feel the same.
