About Eclipse

Alliances are shattering, and hasty diplomatic treaties are made in secrecy. A confrontation of the superpowers seems inevitable – only the outcome of the galactic conflict remains to be seen. Which faction will emerge victorious and rule the galaxy?

Eclipse places you in control of a vast interstellar civilization, competing for success with its rivals. But instead of overcomplex set of rules and overall epicness, it offers more accessible choices, more elegant mechanics and much faster gameplay. And it does all of that without reducing the strategic depth of the game - just like every euro-style board game should.

Eclipse other civilizations and lead your people to victory!

Features:

* Official digital version of the ‘Eclipse: New Dawn for the Galaxy’ boardgame
* Deep and challenging 4X (eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate) gameplay
* 7 species with different strengths and weaknesses
* Customizable star systems, technology tree and ship designs
* Up to 6 players (human or AI)
* Asynchronous, cross-platform multiplayer
* 3 AI difficulty levels
* In-game tutorial & manual

Î can not even get the game to start on my android tablet. No working game means that I am unable to give any positive review.

Unplayable due to bugs. Stay clear of this one.

Good digital version of a great gsme.

Good 4x SciFi digital version of the acclaimed boardgame. Some issues prevent it from being a 5 star for me, namely the lack of notification for online play and the limited pinch to zoom functionality. (Also, note that upgrading removes your existing games).

Couldn't play the tutorial game as the exploration tile wouldn't appear. Haven't find a way to colonize a planet on subsequent turns (very poor UI). I cannot complete a game since the game sticks after a while. I just lost 10$.

Love the game, everything works, but its the basic game and needs the expansions added. Also needs a way to zoom into the graphics it is very difficult to see the details, numbers, even the end score is so small I cannot see it at all. Game works and is worth the cost, but it needs improvements soon

Slight glitch on my Samsung Note 12.2, doesn't save state in the background. But a good interface and a great game. Devs are very responsive. Update: works fine after upgrade to android 6.

Well this is great, but I was playing a local game, and exited midway. When I went to click on the resume, the button greyed out briefly, then went back to looking clickable. But then the screen froze and I had to force the application to exit. I am using a Nexus 9 running Marshmallow. I haven't had this bug recur so all good!

The app crashes during about half of my games. It just freezes up and won't respond which is extremely frustrating an hour into your hour-and-a-half game.

Nice implementation. There are some serious flaws that need to be corrected. The zoom is limited and playing on smaller tablets is a nightmare. Upgrading ships is just a roulette since I don't see what's below my finger. Starting a new game sometimes starts tutorial or continues the previous game. My online games disappear after a couple of days without explanation. It probably has something to do with the incomprehensible creditential system. It is very easy to erase the profile by an accidental touch without any chance nor way to reverse it.

Love the game, will give it 5 stars if the following changes are made in the next updates...1) allow multiple game saves 2) show the dice rolls for the opposing AI ships 3) allow random selection of AI opponents and selection of your race 4) have a better way to display AI role choices 5) show how many influence markers you have remaining.

This is great work and the game largely runs smoothly. I do wish there was a way to have multiple saves as I like to play against my husband but also have the option to play on my own simultaneously.

The real board game is really great and this app is a perfect adaptation. Everything works and gameplay is smooth

A great implementation of the tabletop game!

I bought this on Steam and have enjoyed it greatly, so I figured I'd also get it for my tablet so I could play on the go. Unfortunately, despite seeing that it was compatible with my tablet, I can't get in the game. I get a black screen on loading and nothing else. Rebooting doesn't help either. So I am disappointed that I bought something that simply won't work on my tablet.

An excellent adaptation of the board game, and online multiplayer is also included. Nice graphics and is faster to set up then to learn the paper rules.

Love the board game, have all expansions. This is a great adaptation, I have been waiting for the android port for years. A few small bugs and crash issues, but I trust the developer will get these fixed. Look forward to expansions and supporting this developer further. Would love to see it ported to phones, UI would likely need tweaking but it could be done. If you like 4x and/or space games this is an excellent one for both single and multiplayer. I also recommend the board game.

This is a great adaptation of the board game. Anyone who enjoys 4X games will love it. Good tutorial for new players.

I have an NVIDIA shield tablet and this game runs beautifully on it. I've played, I believe 8 games with this and haven't encountered any issues. I don't get very many opportunities to play the board game version of this, so to be able to play a four player game in an hour is well worth the pricetag. This is amazing and I can't wait for the RotA expansion. (though I imagine it's got a bit.)

Been waiting for this game for quite some time on Android, very happy to see it. There are a couple of issues, but I'll give em some time to iron them out.

I have uninstalled because it crashed when I hit the first instruction in the tutorial. Hopefully there will be some further updates that mean I can reinstall.
