About Solar War

✦ AI summary

Lead Earth's defense against an invading alien armada by building bases across the Solar System, designing custom warships, and leveraging diplomacy or coercion with world governments. This turn-based grand strategy game blends planetary conquest, ship design, and geopolitical maneuvering into a fresh take on defending humanity's future.

A turn-based grand strategy game in space:
  • Defend Earth against an alien invasion from the edge of the Solar System.
  • Negotiate with the various governments of Earth and secure their support - One way or the other.
  • Establish your bases on other planets to take the fight to the enemy.
  • Design and build powerful spaceships, then take them into battle.

So you've kicked alien invaders off Earth dozens of times, but always wondered what the next step would be?

Solar War gives you that scenario in a turn-based strategy game, combining some novel ideas with familiar concepts from different subgenres of classic strategy games. In the game, you will lead the effort to protect Earth from the aliens and battle them for control over the Solar System.

Awesome hidden gem! Wish It would still be worked on, or a DLC of sorts.

Fix your game. This is a NIGHTMARE for upscaling, especially of the 4k kind. I'm not changing the resolution of my entire monitor to accommodate one game, and this issue makes it virtually unplayable. Furthermore, another person I know refunded on the basis that this game doesn't run on Windows 11. Thanks.

I often read "xcom-like" about games that just have soldiers running around. Solar war is XCOM-like in the ways that matter despite being a completely different genre. The nations of earth support you (so long as they're happy) as you wage war across the solar system against an alien menace while building your infrastructure and technology base. Now that's X-com!

The UI and graphics aren't much, but I have yet to find any other game that scratches that particular itch: a sci-fi wargame that heavily focuses on the military aspect, with interesting strategic and operational choices and a real feeling of being a military leader.
