A wonderfully addictive game, as well as a challenging new way to play strategy. Best yet, you can kick ALL of your friends' collective butts at the same time.

Game Informer

Though the menu system can be awkward at times, and the tutorials need smoothing over, this is an excellent offering for a rookie release. [Nov 2001, p.128]

GameSpot

The ongoing and persistent nature of the game universe gives Shattered Galaxy something missing from most real-time strategy games, even those with superior technology.

There's a lot of depth and fun to be had here as long as you can handle playing in a fairly unorganized manner.

A simple game to learn but has an underlying structure that is very complex (complex in a good way though).

Game Revolution

With no real item trading or online community to rival those of the online RPG's, Shattered Galaxy is more of a diversion than a full meal.

Battles are almost always won by veteran troops – which means it all comes down to who’s willing to log in epic amounts of playtime. [Holiday 2001, p. 82]
