Saw over at Space Sector that its now available for iPad.
QuoteAttention on deck! Digital reality has just made his 4X real-time strategy game hit, Imperium Galactica II, available on the App Store, exclusively for the iPad.
Imperium Galactica II – Alliances is undoubtedly one of the space 4X game' landmarks, and it happens to be also one of my favorites. Although its real-time mechanics were not new on a 4X game, they were undoubtedly a good step on innovating the genre, that by then (in early 2000) was ruled by turn-based titles like Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri or Star Trek: The Birth of the Federation.
One of Imperium Galactica II' more memorable features was its colony development, that was outstandingly complex and deep for a 4X game, and you could even see and control ground combat on the planet colonies on a typical RTS fashion. But there is also all the typical 4X elements like ship design, spying, research, diplomacy and space combat. If you have an iPad and love 4X games you can miss this one. Grab it now on iTunes!
I never played the original, but I think I' going to buy it for my new iPad.
Nice! Almost makes me want to get an iPad.
Getting it now. I loved the game on the PC and, of course, this won't be quite the same it looks very nice and I don't have any space games. It might get me away from Camelot as well for a while.
