About Nexus 5X
Nothing beats the thrill of a deep strategy board game session with friends, and with Nexus 5X, you can play not one, but several sessions during an evening where “One More Turn” becomes “One More Game.”
Nexus 5X is a multiplayer turn-based 4X clash for galactic dominance, played from start to finish in about an hour!
Choose from unique factions and leaders and play alone or in turn-based multiplayer with 2-8 players. Play with friends or brave the Nexus online in skill-based matchmaking. Form unlikely alliances, execute bitter betrayals, or quietly plot from the shadows to ascend victorious to the Galactic Throne, all in around 60 minutes.
Starting from the safe haven of their home world, players can rapidly expand their reach across the galaxy to explore and occupy new systems, eventually taking control of the throne-world of Nexus. Military conflict and diplomatic dealings are available as players expand and explore, but so is the power struggle that plays out in the Galactic Council, as rival empires exert their influence to cast votes in favour of new titles and resolutions, aiming to empower their faction or advance their immediate strategic objectives.
For role-players who want to immerse themselves in the lore-rich Stellaris universe, or for ‘by-the-numbers’ strategists, select from factions and leaders that alter the approach of each match, offering a range of playstyles and ways to gain the upper-hand over their opponents.

A really solid multiplayer space 4x game where the games don't take weeks to finish.1 found this helpful
I'm enjoying it WAY more than I thought I would. Normally, I like my marathon game lengths, but for some reason, this works beautifully!
So I had to refund this game as it went like this: Me: "I'd like to see what happens if I build these structures." Game: "Best I can do is this cabbage." Very unsatisfying.
I'm so over strategy games that change the rules part way through a level. Some cool concepts, but if you can't trust the computer to follow the rules then what's the point.
It's a fun, fast paced game
Amazing game with awful marketing, deserves more attention.
