About Expansion

A game about space (locational) in space (cosmic).



Colonise the galaxy with a click of a mouse. Use human cunning to outwit the expanding hordes of aliens, robots, and squid-people(?) as you all compete to control the limited space in the galaxy.

Winner of the DreamHack Austin Jam

First, Please take a look at the GODS OF HAVOK TRILOGY



Inspired by Expansion, these two games herald a return to the classic god game.

When I first looked at this game I thought this might be shovel ware that some one got through the green light process. I took one look at the price which was $0.50, during the 2019 winter sale, and thought what the heck lets see what happens. Turns out this is a pretty simple game that can suck you in for hours. I have already played a good two hours and can see myself investing a couple more down the road whenever I feel like playing a puzzle game. Most of the reviews for the game complain about the lack of instructions, but if you look at the top right after you start a game you will notice an Instruct Button. This button tells you ALL you need to know to play this game. Would highly recommend this game for the price that I payed. Hell even the full price of $1.00 doesn't seem too bad. The scope of the game is very short but the replay ability is up there due to its randomly generated maps.

Good game for the price. Clean, Simple, Fun. Found the instructions clear and informative - Crushed the impossible AI on my 5th game.

Nice board game, for the small price you get a nice little game that will let you waste some hours. I really liked it and reminds me of some game I did with my classmates with paper and pen and we had to fill in squares in a paper sheet with dots which closely resemble the "population" thing here Well done

what i liked about this game is that it can be calm one moment and action packed the next. the strategies I can use can be very dynamic. were i have my complaint, is that i can not choose to be a non human player. difficulty is determined by how close to resources the AI is not how well the AI uses those resources. the help page is clear in some parts and is vague in others. i would like to see the player have more powers.

needs to be free considering its a lazily executed idea for a game, that could be amazing if the mechanics were better fleshed out. no tutorial. ripoff.
