Goes where no space RTS has gone before with its incredible visuals and moderately realistic gameplay. The games superb attention to detail places it in the ranks of the best modern RTS games.
-
89Visually stunning. But more than that, this is game that will challenge cerebrally in a way few RTS games have in the past.
-
89With all the game elements perfectly balanced, this is a worthwhile purchase for any fan of the real-time strategy genre.
-
85The main issue most will have is the controls and interface. If you can stick it out and get accustomed to the system, it does end up working well.
-
83The best aspect of this game is its graphics.
-
82It's a solid game that looks amazing. Just don't expect it to be quite the epic struggle that "Homeworld" managed to be.
-
79While this hybrid concept mostly works well, the game suffers from a lack of polish and from stripped-down combat balance.
-
Pitted against other 4X titles, the individual parts of Hegemonia never seem to glue or mesh into a compelling and cohesive whole.
-
77An enjoyable interstellar romp, wrapping rich resource management and hypersonic combat around a gourmet 3D engine. [Mar 2003, p.93]
-
77Drop-dead gorgeous... [but] one of Hegemonia's major failings is that its real-time combat is usually simplistic and dull.
-
One of the best looking space games out there. Unfortunately its gameplay can not match its eye-popping visuals... It just lacks the depth and hands on control strategy gamers expect from their games.
-
70If you've got enough patience to get used to the kinks in the interface and the sometimes dense mission design, you'll get a great deal of entertainment out of this one, both online and off.
-
Gives you so many intriguing possibilities, it's fairly engaging even when no fighting's going on. [Mar 2003, p.79]
-
In many ways, it's most similar to a game released in 1990: "Dune."
-
It falls into this trap, sacrificing gameplay and strategic choice for the "drama" of heavy scripting. [Mar 2003, p.109]

Yootie10Absolute perfection.

RobS.10It is the next level of RTS. The game is hard when you start off, but when you get into it Hegemonia is one hell of a game.
